What this shows Caris's Innovation Score is 53.7/100 (top 9% 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 Caris?

Each dot is one of Caris’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). Caris’s own 22.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Caris's grants concentrate

Caris MPI, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G16B (Bioinformatics, i.e. Information AND Communication Technology [ICT] Specially Adapted FOR Genetic OR Protein-related Data Processing IN Computational Molecular Biology). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Caris sits between California Eastern Laboratories, Inc. and Cellresin Technologies, LLC.

Caris's three-year grant acceleration

Caris MPI, Inc. shows 3 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.
