Where Mad's grants concentrate

Mad Apparel, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 80.8% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2016. By volume, Mad sits between Mitralign, Inc. and Medlumics S.L..

Mad's three-year grant acceleration

Mad Apparel, Inc. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
