What this shows Custom's Innovation Score is 37.8/100 (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 Custom?

Each dot is one of Custom’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). Custom’s own 7.8 claims/patent is at or below the 16.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Custom's grants concentrate

Custom Molded Products, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 16.4% of grants classified under F21V (Functional Features OR Details OF Lighting Devices OR Systems THEREOF; Structural Combinations OF Lighting Devices With Other Articles, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (14 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2021. By volume, Custom sits between ClevX, LLC and Elkay Manufacturing Company.

Custom's three-year grant acceleration

Custom Molded Products, LLC shows 10 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.
