What this shows CDA's Innovation Score is 41.5/100 (top 33% 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 CDA?
Each dot is one of CDA’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). CDA’s own 25.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where CDA's grants concentrate
CDA Research Group, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 81.3% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, CDA sits between Casio Electronics Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Chang WAH Technology Co., Ltd..
CDA's three-year grant acceleration
CDA Research Group, Inc. shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
