Does more volume mean deeper claims for David?

Each dot is one of David’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). David’s own 13.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where David's grants concentrate

David Clark Company Incorporated is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under H04B (Transmission). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, David sits between Driflower, LLC and Deep Vision Inc..

David's three-year grant acceleration

David Clark Company Incorporated shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
