Does more volume mean deeper claims for Linden?

Each dot is one of Linden’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). Linden’s own 17.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Linden's grants concentrate

Linden Research, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 73.3% of grants classified under G06T (Image Data Processing OR Generation, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Linden sits between Lechler GmbH and Living Style (B.V.I.) Limited.

Linden's three-year grant acceleration

Linden Research, Inc. shows 3 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.
