Does more volume mean deeper claims for Equity?

Each dot is one of Equity’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). Equity’s own 21.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Equity's grants concentrate

Equity Shift, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 85.3% of grants classified under G06Q (Information AND Communication Technology [ICT] Specially Adapted FOR Administrative, Commercial, Financial, Managerial OR Supervisory PURPOSES; Systems OR Methods Specially Adapted FOR Administrative,). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (11 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2020. By volume, Equity sits between Dongguan Hongyu Plastic Co., Ltd. and FK Irons Inc..

Equity's three-year grant acceleration

Equity Shift, Inc. shows 22 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
