What this shows Personal's Innovation Score is 30.2/100 (33rd 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 Personal?
Each dot is one of Personal’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). Personal’s own 13.3 claims/patent is at or below the 14.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Personal's grants concentrate
Personal Genomics, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 57.1% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Personal sits between Penn Elcom Ltd. and Pharmathen S.A..
Personal's three-year grant acceleration
Personal Genomics, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
