Does more volume mean deeper claims for Great?
Each dot is one of Great’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). Great’s own 18.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Great's grants concentrate
Great Lakes NeuroTechnologies Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 85% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (10 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2015. By volume, Great sits between Everlast Climbing Industries, Inc. and Hoist Fitness Systems, Inc..
Great's three-year grant acceleration
Great Lakes NeuroTechnologies Inc. shows 15 grants in 2022–2024 against only 18 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.
