Does more volume mean deeper claims for Freehold?
Each dot is one of Freehold’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). Freehold’s own 13.7 claims/patent is at or below the 14.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Freehold's grants concentrate
Freehold Surgical, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Freehold sits between Forty Seven, LLC and G9 Holdings, LLC.
Freehold's three-year grant acceleration
Freehold Surgical, LLC shows 5 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.
