What this shows J.j.'s Innovation Score is 40.2/100 (top 36% 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 J.j.?

Each dot is one of J.j.’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). J.j.’s own 17.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where J.j.'s grants concentrate

J.J. Mackay Canada Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 15 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under G06Q (Information AND Communication Technology [ICT] Specially Adapted FOR Administrative, Commercial, Financial, Managerial OR Supervisory PURPOSES; Systems OR Methods Specially Adapted FOR Administrative,). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2020. By volume, J.j. sits between Innovega, Inc. and John Nicholas and Kristin Gross Trust.

J.j.'s three-year grant acceleration

J.J. Mackay Canada Limited shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
