What this shows 3dfortify's Innovation Score is 43.3/100 (top 28% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for 3dfortify?

Each dot is one of 3dfortify’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). 3dfortify’s own 24.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where 3dfortify's grants concentrate

3DFortify, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B33Y (Additive Manufacturing, i.e. Manufacturing OF Three-dimensional [3-D] Objects BY Additive Deposition, Additive Agglomeration OR Additive Layering, e.g. BY 3-D Printing, Stereolithography OR Selective ). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, 3dfortify sits between 3B Pharmaceuticals GMBH and 3fish Limited.

3dfortify's three-year grant acceleration

3DFortify, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
