Does more volume mean deeper claims for Indigo?
Each dot is one of Indigo’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). Indigo’s own 20.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 19.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Indigo's grants concentrate
Indigo Ag, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 25 CPC subclasses with 60.4% of grants classified under A01N (Preservation OF Bodies OF Humans OR Animals OR Plants OR Parts Thereof ; Biocides, e.g. AS Disinfectants, AS Pesticides OR AS Herbicides ; Pest Repellants OR ATTRACTANTS; Plant Growth Regulators). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (14 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Indigo sits between Ikea Supply AG and Jahwa Electronics Co., Ltd..
Indigo's three-year grant acceleration
Indigo Ag, Inc. shows 26 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.
