What this shows Daido's Innovation Score is 40.2/100 (top 36% 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 Daido?

Each dot is one of Daido’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). Daido’s own 7.7 claims/patent is at or below the 8.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Daido's grants concentrate

Daido Kogyo Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 15 CPC subclasses with 44.4% of grants classified under F16H (Gearing). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Daido sits between Cyclazoom, LLC and Deepmotor Inc.

Daido's three-year grant acceleration

Daido Kogyo Co., Ltd. shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
