Does more volume mean deeper claims for Excellence?
Each dot is one of Excellence’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). Excellence’s own 11.6 claims/patent is at or below the 11.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Excellence's grants concentrate
Excellence Opto. Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under H10H (Inorganic Light-emitting Semiconductor Devices Having Potential Barriers). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Excellence sits between ETH Zuerich and Eastern Mastec Corporation.
Excellence's three-year grant acceleration
Excellence Opto. Inc. shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
