What this shows CAN's Innovation Score is 51.6/100 (top 11% 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 CAN?

Each dot is one of CAN’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). CAN’s own 15.5 claims/patent is at or below the 17.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where CAN's grants concentrate

CAN Technologies, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 93.3% of grants classified under A23K (Fodder). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, CAN sits between Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. and Caruse Design, Inc..

CAN's three-year grant acceleration

CAN Technologies, Inc. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
