What this shows DS's Innovation Score is 33.3/100 (44th 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 DS?

Each dot is one of DS’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). DS’s own 18.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where DS's grants concentrate

DS Services OF America, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under C02F (Treatment OF Water, Waste Water, Sewage, OR Sludge). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, DS sits between Doselogix, LLC and Dan Raz Ltd..

DS's three-year grant acceleration

DS Services OF America, Inc. shows 4 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.
