Does more volume mean deeper claims for Aquesys?

Each dot is one of Aquesys’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). Aquesys’s own 22.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Aquesys's grants concentrate

AqueSys, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 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 2019 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Aquesys sits between Auden Techno Corp. and BHS Corrugated Maschinen-und Anlagenbau GMBH.

Aquesys's three-year grant acceleration

AqueSys, Inc. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 15 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.
