Does more volume mean deeper claims for Maxar?
Each dot is one of Maxar’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). Maxar’s own 18.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Maxar's grants concentrate
Maxar Space LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 31 CPC subclasses with 76.6% of grants classified under B64G (COSMONAUTICS; Vehicles OR Equipment Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (15 grants) versus a trough of 3 in 2021. By volume, Maxar sits between Microban Products Company and Microchip Technology Germany GmbH.
Maxar's three-year grant acceleration
Maxar Space LLC shows 32 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
