Does more volume mean deeper claims for Personal?

Each dot is one of Personal’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). Personal’s own 6.1 claims/patent is at or below the 17.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Personal's grants concentrate

Personal Care Marketing and Research, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 1 CPC subclasses with 46.2% of grants classified under B26B (Hand-held Cutting Tools NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Personal sits between Pelagic Pressure Systems Corp. and Piasecki Aircraft Corporation.

Personal's three-year grant acceleration

Personal Care Marketing and Research, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
