Does more volume mean deeper claims for Clearwater?

Each dot is one of Clearwater’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). Clearwater’s own 23.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 17.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Clearwater's grants concentrate

Clearwater Seafoods Limited Partnership is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under A01K (Animal HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; Rearing OR Breeding Animals, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; NEW Breeds OF Animals). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Clearwater sits between Clean-Shot Archery, Inc. and Clopay Plastic Products Company, Inc..

Clearwater's three-year grant acceleration

Clearwater Seafoods Limited Partnership shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
