Does more volume mean deeper claims for Deka?
Each dot is one of Deka’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). Deka’s own 6.1 claims/patent is at or below the 11.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Deka's grants concentrate
Deka Biosciences, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 95.8% of grants classified under A61P (Specific Therapeutic Activity OF Chemical Compounds OR Medicinal Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Deka sits between Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Digital Surgery Limited.
Deka's three-year grant acceleration
Deka Biosciences, Inc. shows 17 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
