Does more volume mean deeper claims for Crosstex?

Each dot is one of Crosstex’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). Crosstex’s own 16.1 claims/patent is at or below the 17.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Crosstex's grants concentrate

Crosstex International, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 52.9% of grants classified under A61C (DENTISTRY; Apparatus OR Methods FOR Oral OR Dental Hygiene). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Crosstex sits between Conventus Orthopaedics, Inc. and Cutting Edge Products, Inc..

Crosstex's three-year grant acceleration

Crosstex International, Inc. shows 7 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.
