What this shows Black's Innovation Score is 62.6/100 (top 2% 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 Black?

Each dot is one of Black’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). Black’s own 13.9 claims/patent is at or below the 13.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Black's grants concentrate

Black Sesame Technologies Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 28 CPC subclasses with 48.9% of grants classified under G06T (Image Data Processing OR Generation, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (24 grants) versus a trough of 19 in 2022. By volume, Black sits between AGC Flat Glass North America, Inc. and Compass Therapeutics LLC.

Black's three-year grant acceleration

Black Sesame Technologies Inc. shows 66 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
