Does more volume mean deeper claims for Aqua?
Each dot is one of Aqua’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). Aqua’s own 10.0 claims/patent is at or below the 18.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Aqua's grants concentrate
Aqua Tru, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 70% of grants classified under C02F (Treatment OF Water, Waste Water, Sewage, OR Sludge). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Aqua sits between Apollon Inc. and Arebesk Inc..
Aqua's three-year grant acceleration
Aqua Tru, LLC shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
