Does more volume mean deeper claims for Clam?

Each dot is one of Clam’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). Clam’s own 17.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Clam's grants concentrate

Clam Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 53.8% of grants classified under E04H (Buildings OR Like Structures FOR Particular PURPOSES; Swimming OR Splash Baths OR POOLS; MASTS; FENCING; Tents OR Canopies, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Clam sits between CI Systems (ISRAEL) Ltd. and CMI Defence S.A..

Clam's three-year grant acceleration

Clam Corporation shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
