Does more volume mean deeper claims for Minnetronix?
Each dot is one of Minnetronix’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). Minnetronix’s own 19.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Minnetronix's grants concentrate
Minnetronix, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 88% of grants classified under A61M (Devices FOR Introducing Media Into, OR Onto, THE Body ; Devices FOR Transducing Body Media OR FOR Taking Media From THE Body ; Devices FOR Producing OR Ending Sleep OR Stupor). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Minnetronix sits between Metabolon, Inc. and Marty Gilman, Inc..
Minnetronix's three-year grant acceleration
Minnetronix, Inc. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
