Does more volume mean deeper claims for Bestop?

Each dot is one of Bestop’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). Bestop’s own 15.0 claims/patent is at or below the 18.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Bestop's grants concentrate

Bestop Baja, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 70% of grants classified under B60Q (Arrangement OF Signalling OR Lighting Devices, THE Mounting OR Supporting Thereof OR Circuits Therefor, FOR Vehicles IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Bestop sits between Bellco S.R.L. and Big Elk Energy Systems, LLC.

Bestop's three-year grant acceleration

Bestop Baja, LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
