Does more volume mean deeper claims for Hay?
Each dot is one of Hay’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). Hay’s own 1.0 claims/patent is at or below the 10.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Hay's grants concentrate
Hay ApS is a focused PatentsView assignee: 0 CPC subclasses . Peak complete grant year is 2022 (13 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2020. By volume, Hay sits between Gamesa Innovation & Technology, S. L. and J. Wagner GmbH.
Hay's three-year grant acceleration
Hay ApS shows 28 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
