Does more volume mean deeper claims for Ithaca?

Each dot is one of Ithaca’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). Ithaca’s own 24.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ithaca's grants concentrate

Ithaca College is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C07C (Acyclic OR Carbocyclic Compounds). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Ithaca sits between Isaac Daniel Group, Inc. and J. D. Neuhaus Holding GmbH & Co. KG.

Ithaca's three-year grant acceleration

Ithaca College shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
