What this shows Cryostar's Innovation Score is 36.9/100 (top 45% 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 Cryostar?

Each dot is one of Cryostar’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). Cryostar’s own 14.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Cryostar's grants concentrate

Cryostar SAS is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under F17C (Vessels FOR Containing OR Storing Compressed, Liquefied OR Solidified GASES; Fixed-capacity GAS-HOLDERS; Filling Vessels With, OR Discharging From Vessels, Compressed, Liquefied, OR Solidified Gases). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Cryostar sits between ConsumerDirect, Inc. and Danyang UPC Auto Parts Co., Ltd..

Cryostar's three-year grant acceleration

Cryostar SAS shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
