What this shows Customarray's Innovation Score is 36.3/100 (top 47% 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 Customarray?

Each dot is one of Customarray’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). Customarray’s own 18.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Customarray's grants concentrate

CustomArray, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 15 CPC subclasses with 73.3% of grants classified under B01J (Chemical OR Physical Processes, e.g. Catalysis OR Colloid CHEMISTRY; Their Relevant Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Customarray sits between Crossfor Co., Ltd. and Dalian Research Institute OF Petroleum AND Petrochemicals, Sinopec Corp..

Customarray's three-year grant acceleration

CustomArray, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
