Does more volume mean deeper claims for Hart?

Each dot is one of Hart’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). Hart’s own 27.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Hart's grants concentrate

Hart InterCivic, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under G07C (Time OR Attendance REGISTERS; Registering OR Indicating THE Working OF MACHINES; Generating Random NUMBERS; Voting OR Lottery APPARATUS; Arrangements, Systems OR Apparatus FOR Checking NOT Provided FO). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Hart sits between Hortival Diffusion SAS and ID Quantique SA.

Hart's three-year grant acceleration

Hart InterCivic, Inc. shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
