What this shows Otoy's Innovation Score is 40.8/100 (top 35% 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 Otoy?

Each dot is one of Otoy’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). Otoy’s own 19.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Otoy's grants concentrate

Otoy Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 57.6% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Otoy sits between Novozymes North America Inc. and Phinergy Ltd..

Otoy's three-year grant acceleration

Otoy Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
