What this shows Digi-star's Innovation Score is 38.1/100 (top 41% 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 Digi-star?

Each dot is one of Digi-star’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). Digi-star’s own 17.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Digi-star's grants concentrate

Digi-Star, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under A01K (Animal HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; Rearing OR Breeding Animals, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; NEW Breeds OF Animals). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Digi-star sits between DelStar Technologies, Inc. and Dmitriy & Company LLC.

Digi-star's three-year grant acceleration

Digi-Star, LLC shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
