Does more volume mean deeper claims for Clutch?
Each dot is one of Clutch’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). Clutch’s own 14.4 claims/patent is at or below the 15.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Clutch's grants concentrate
Clutch Industries Pty Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F16D (Couplings FOR Transmitting ROTATION; CLUTCHES; Brakes). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Clutch sits between Cloudpath Networks, Inc. and Cobalt Coupler Systems, LLC.
Clutch's three-year grant acceleration
Clutch Industries Pty Ltd shows 3 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.
