What this shows Dift's Innovation Score is 35.0/100 (top 50% 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 Dift?

Each dot is one of Dift’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). Dift’s own 17.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 7.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Dift's grants concentrate

Dift Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under G06T (Image Data Processing OR Generation, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Dift sits between Diageo Ireland and Digital Keystone, Inc..

Dift's three-year grant acceleration

Dift Corporation shows 3 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.
