Does more volume mean deeper claims for ECM?

Each dot is one of ECM’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). ECM’s own 10.3 claims/patent is at or below the 11.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where ECM's grants concentrate

ECM Industries, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 28.6% of grants classified under B25B (Tools OR Bench Devices NOT Otherwise Provided FOR, FOR Fastening, Connecting, Disengaging OR Holding). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, ECM sits between EBM Technologies Incorporated and Ecoroll AG Werkzeugtechnik.

ECM's three-year grant acceleration

ECM Industries, LLC shows 2 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.
