Does more volume mean deeper claims for Channel?

Each dot is one of Channel’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). Channel’s own 14.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Channel's grants concentrate

Channel Investments, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 75% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Channel sits between Ceratizit Luxembourg S.a.r.l. and Chengdu Yefan Science AND Technology Co., Ltd..

Channel's three-year grant acceleration

Channel Investments, LLC shows 1 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.
