What this shows Macnaught's Innovation Score is 34.2/100 (47th percentile 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 Macnaught?

Each dot is one of Macnaught’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). Macnaught’s own 8.0 claims/patent is at or below the 15.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Macnaught's grants concentrate

Macnaught PTY Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 30% of grants classified under F16N (Lubricating). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Macnaught sits between Lurgi GmbH and MAM Holdings OF West Florida, L.L.C..

Macnaught's three-year grant acceleration

Macnaught PTY Ltd shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
