Does more volume mean deeper claims for Assa?

Each dot is one of Assa’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). Assa’s own 18.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Assa's grants concentrate

Assa Abloy (Schweiz) AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under E06B (Fixed OR Movable Closures FOR Openings IN Buildings, Vehicles, Fences OR Like Enclosures IN General, e.g. Doors, Windows, Blinds, Gates). By volume, Assa sits between Asia AIR Survey Co., Ltd. and Astron Aerospace LLC.

Assa's three-year grant acceleration

Assa Abloy (Schweiz) AG shows 1 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.
