Does more volume mean deeper claims for IV?

Each dot is one of IV’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). IV’s own 22.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where IV's grants concentrate

IV Technologies Co., Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 82.4% of grants classified under B24B (Machines, Devices, OR Processes FOR Grinding OR Polishing ; Dressing OR Conditioning OF Abrading SURFACES; Feeding OF Grinding, Polishing, OR Lapping Agents). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, IV sits between International Institute OF Information Technology, Hyderabad and Infinite Peripherals, Inc..

IV's three-year grant acceleration

IV Technologies Co., Ltd shows 6 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.
