What this shows Canatu's Innovation Score is 44.6/100 (top 25% 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 Canatu?

Each dot is one of Canatu’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). Canatu’s own 13.6 claims/patent is at or below the 15.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Canatu's grants concentrate

Canatu OY is a focused PatentsView assignee: 32 CPC subclasses with 56.3% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Canatu sits between Brown Innovation, LLC and Casio Electronics Manufacturing Co., Ltd..

Canatu's three-year grant acceleration

Canatu OY shows 3 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.
