What this shows JCM's Innovation Score is 41.0/100 (top 34% 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 JCM?

Each dot is one of JCM’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). JCM’s own 18.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where JCM's grants concentrate

JCM American Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 94.3% of grants classified under G07F (Coin-freed OR Like Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, JCM sits between Institute OF Semiconductors, Chinese Academy OF Sciences and Kctech Co., Ltd..

JCM's three-year grant acceleration

JCM American Corporation shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 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.
