Does more volume mean deeper claims for Codex?
Each dot is one of Codex’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). Codex’s own 17.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Codex's grants concentrate
Codex DNA, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 91.7% of grants classified under C12N (Microorganisms OR ENZYMES; Compositions THEREOF; Propagating, Preserving, OR Maintaining MICROORGANISMS; Mutation OR Genetic ENGINEERING; Culture Media). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Codex sits between Climate Master, Inc. and Combis Sport Enterprise Co., Ltd..
Codex's three-year grant acceleration
Codex DNA, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
