What this shows Cluster'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 Cluster?

Each dot is one of Cluster’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). Cluster’s own 16.5 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 Cluster's grants concentrate

Cluster, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under G06T (Image Data Processing OR Generation, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2023. By volume, Cluster sits between Clearwater Paper Corporation and CodeShop, B.V..

Cluster's three-year grant acceleration

Cluster, Inc. shows 7 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.
