Where Ockerman's grants concentrate

Ockerman Automation Consulting, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under B63B (Ships OR Other Waterborne VESSELS; Equipment FOR Shipping). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Ockerman sits between OX Labs Inc. and OilQuick Deutschland KG.

Ockerman's three-year grant acceleration

Ockerman Automation Consulting, Inc. shows 9 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.
