Does more volume mean deeper claims for Blackboiler?

Each dot is one of Blackboiler’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). Blackboiler’s own 20.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Blackboiler's grants concentrate

Blackboiler, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Blackboiler sits between Beta Pharma, Inc. and BOB Barker Company, Inc..

Blackboiler's three-year grant acceleration

Blackboiler, Inc. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
