Does more volume mean deeper claims for Oldcastle?

Each dot is one of Oldcastle’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). Oldcastle’s own 13.1 claims/patent is at or below the 20.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Oldcastle's grants concentrate

Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 44.8% of grants classified under E06B (Fixed OR Movable Closures FOR Openings IN Buildings, Vehicles, Fences OR Like Enclosures IN General, e.g. Doors, Windows, Blinds, Gates). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Oldcastle sits between ODK Technology PTE. Ltd. and PB Inc..

Oldcastle's three-year grant acceleration

Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope, Inc. shows 7 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.
