What this shows Compact's Innovation Score is 38.0/100 (top 42% 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 Compact?

Each dot is one of Compact’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). Compact’s own 18.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Compact's grants concentrate

Compact Membrane Systems, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 90.9% of grants classified under B01D (Separation). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Compact sits between Code On Network Coding, LLC and Conductix Wampfler France.

Compact's three-year grant acceleration

Compact Membrane Systems, Inc. shows 3 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.
