What this shows DVA's Innovation Score is 50.6/100 (top 13% 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 DVA?

Each dot is one of DVA’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). DVA’s own 21.2 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 DVA's grants concentrate

DVA Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under F21V (Functional Features OR Details OF Lighting Devices OR Systems THEREOF; Structural Combinations OF Lighting Devices With Other Articles, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, DVA sits between Duplo Corporation and DWK Life Sciences GmbH.

DVA's three-year grant acceleration

DVA Inc. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
