Does more volume mean deeper claims for Cour?
Each dot is one of Cour’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). Cour’s own 18.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Cour's grants concentrate
Cour Pharmaceuticals Development Company Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Cour sits between Cosmed S.r.l. and CPI Card GROUP—TENNESSEE, Inc..
Cour's three-year grant acceleration
Cour Pharmaceuticals Development Company Inc. 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.
