What this shows Dairy's Innovation Score is 31.3/100 (37th 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 Dairy?

Each dot is one of Dairy’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). Dairy’s own 11.8 claims/patent is at or below the 15.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Dairy's grants concentrate

Dairy Australia Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under C12N (Microorganisms OR ENZYMES; Compositions THEREOF; Propagating, Preserving, OR Maintaining MICROORGANISMS; Mutation OR Genetic ENGINEERING; Culture Media). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Dairy sits between Daca Design LLC and Danbury Mission Technologies, LLC.

Dairy's three-year grant acceleration

Dairy Australia Limited shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
