Does more volume mean deeper claims for Applied?

Each dot is one of Applied’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). Applied’s own 17.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Applied's grants concentrate

Applied Minds, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 31 CPC subclasses with 33.3% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (10 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2017. By volume, Applied sits between Ainsworth Game Technology Limited and Blanco GMBH + Co KG.

Applied's three-year grant acceleration

Applied Minds, LLC shows 16 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 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.
