Does more volume mean deeper claims for Orthohelix?
Each dot is one of Orthohelix’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). Orthohelix’s own 16.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Orthohelix's grants concentrate
Orthohelix Surgical Designs, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (9 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2020. By volume, Orthohelix sits between Novan, Inc. and Progressive Casualty Insurance Company.
Orthohelix's three-year grant acceleration
Orthohelix Surgical Designs, Inc. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
