Does more volume mean deeper claims for Bear?

Each dot is one of Bear’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). Bear’s own 18.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Bear's grants concentrate

Bear Archery, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 71.8% of grants classified under F41B (Weapons FOR Projecting Missiles Without USE OF Explosive OR Combustible Propellant CHARGE; Weapons NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Bear sits between AvicenaTech, Corp. and Caci, Inc.—Federal.

Bear's three-year grant acceleration

Bear Archery, Inc. shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
