Where Gatekeeper's grants concentrate

Gatekeeper Systems, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 34 CPC subclasses with 81.6% of grants classified under B62B (Hand-propelled Vehicles, e.g. Hand Carts OR PERAMBULATORS; Sledges). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (10 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2023. By volume, Gatekeeper sits between Future Dial, Inc. and Goertek Technology Co., Ltd..

Gatekeeper's three-year grant acceleration

Gatekeeper Systems, Inc. shows 15 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
