What this shows Custom's Innovation Score is 34.5/100 (48th percentile 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 26.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Custom's grants concentrate

Custom Truck & Equipment LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under B60F (Vehicles FOR USE Both ON Rail AND ON ROAD; Amphibious OR Like VEHICLES; Convertible Vehicles). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Custom sits between CT-Concept Technologie GmbH and CaP Biomaterials, LLC.

Custom's three-year grant acceleration

Custom Truck & Equipment LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
