Does more volume mean deeper claims for Astenjohnson?

Each dot is one of Astenjohnson’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). Astenjohnson’s own 18.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Astenjohnson's grants concentrate

Astenjohnson, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 23 CPC subclasses with 85.7% of grants classified under D21F (Paper-making MACHINES; Methods OF Producing Paper Thereon). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Astenjohnson sits between Anji Hengjian Smart Home Technology Co., Ltd. and Alkermes, Inc..

Astenjohnson's three-year grant acceleration

Astenjohnson, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
