Does more volume mean deeper claims for Better?

Each dot is one of Better’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). Better’s own 1.9 claims/patent is at or below the 14.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Better's grants concentrate

Better Walk, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 1 CPC subclasses with 12.5% of grants classified under A61H (Physical Therapy Apparatus, e.g. Devices FOR Locating OR Stimulating Reflex Points IN THE BODY; Artificial RESPIRATION; MASSAGE; Bathing Devices FOR Special Therapeutic OR Hygienic Purposes OR Specifi). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Better sits between Bernard Mccartney Limited and BIG Daishowa Co., Ltd..

Better's three-year grant acceleration

Better Walk, Inc. shows 3 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.
