What this shows Daylight's Innovation Score is 42.8/100 (top 30% 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 Daylight?

Each dot is one of Daylight’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). Daylight’s own 20.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Daylight's grants concentrate

Daylight Solutions, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 54.5% of grants classified under H01S (Devices Using THE Process OF Light Amplification BY Stimulated Emission OF Radiation [LASER] TO Amplify OR Generate LIGHT; Devices Using Stimulated Emission OF Electromagnetic Radiation IN Wave Ranges). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Daylight sits between Datto, Inc. and Fastcap Systems Corporation.

Daylight's three-year grant acceleration

Daylight Solutions, Inc. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 17 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.
