Does more volume mean deeper claims for Brooks?
Each dot is one of Brooks’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). Brooks’s own 24.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Brooks's grants concentrate
Brooks Automation US, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 86.9% of grants classified under H01L (Semiconductor Devices NOT Covered BY Class H10). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (23 grants) versus a trough of 16 in 2024. By volume, Brooks sits between Alivecor, Inc. and Chi Mei Communication Systems, Inc..
Brooks's three-year grant acceleration
Brooks Automation US, LLC shows 57 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
