Does more volume mean deeper claims for irhythm?
Each dot is one of irhythm’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). irhythm’s own 18.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where irhythm's grants concentrate
iRhythm Technologies, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 92.5% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (13 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, irhythm sits between Zwilling J.A. Henckels AG and Autolus Limited.
irhythm's three-year grant acceleration
iRhythm Technologies, Inc. shows 23 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.
