What this shows Curis's Innovation Score is 39.4/100 (top 38% 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 Curis?

Each dot is one of Curis’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). Curis’s own 15.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Curis's grants concentrate

Curis, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 95.2% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (8 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2018. By volume, Curis sits between Cutsforth, Inc. and Deutz Aktiengesellschaft.

Curis's three-year grant acceleration

Curis, Inc. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
