Where Agathon's grants concentrate

Agathon AG, Maschinenfabrik is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 42.9% of grants classified under B23Q (Details, Components, OR Accessories FOR Machine Tools, e.g. Arrangements FOR Copying OR Controlling ; Machine Tools IN General Characterised BY THE Construction OF Particular Details OR COMPONENTS; Co). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Agathon sits between AeroPress, Inc. and AgriMetis, LLC.

Agathon's three-year grant acceleration

Agathon AG, Maschinenfabrik shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
