What this shows Ghost's Innovation Score is 61.2/100 (top 3% 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 Ghost?

Each dot is one of Ghost’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). Ghost’s own 19.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ghost's grants concentrate

Ghost Autonomy Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 22 CPC subclasses with 55% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (20 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Ghost sits between FibroGen, Inc. and Green Cross Corporation.

Ghost's three-year grant acceleration

Ghost Autonomy Inc. shows 40 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.
