What this shows GANZ's Innovation Score is 46.1/100 (top 22% 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 GANZ?

Each dot is one of GANZ’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). GANZ’s own 18.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 9.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where GANZ's grants concentrate

GANZ is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 89.5% of grants classified under A63F (Card, Board, OR Roulette GAMES; Indoor Games Using Small Moving Playing BODIES; Video GAMES; Games NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, GANZ sits between Freeport-McMoRan, Inc. and GI Dynamics, Inc..

GANZ's three-year grant acceleration

GANZ shows 4 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.
