Does more volume mean deeper claims for NEO?
Each dot is one of NEO’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). NEO’s own 18.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where NEO's grants concentrate
NEO Water Treatment, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C02F (Treatment OF Water, Waste Water, Sewage, OR Sludge). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, NEO sits between NEC Personal Computers, Ltd. and NEP Supershooters, L.P..
NEO's three-year grant acceleration
NEO Water Treatment, LLC shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
