What this shows Code's Innovation Score is 33.7/100 (45th percentile 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 Code?

Each dot is one of Code’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). Code’s own 12.8 claims/patent is at or below the 15.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Code's grants concentrate

Code 3, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 64.3% of grants classified under B60Q (Arrangement OF Signalling OR Lighting Devices, THE Mounting OR Supporting Thereof OR Circuits Therefor, FOR Vehicles IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Code sits between Clairvoyant Technology, Inc. and Comptek Technologies LLC.

Code's three-year grant acceleration

Code 3, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
