Does more volume mean deeper claims for Acufocus?

Each dot is one of Acufocus’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). Acufocus’s own 18.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Acufocus's grants concentrate

AcuFocus, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61F (Filters Implantable Into Blood VESSELS; PROSTHESES; Devices Providing Patency TO, OR Preventing Collapsing OF, Tubular Structures OF THE Body, e.g. STENTS; Orthopaedic, Nursing OR Contraceptive Device). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Acufocus sits between Arlanxeo Singapore PTE. Ltd. and Altium Packaging LP.

Acufocus's three-year grant acceleration

AcuFocus, Inc. shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
