Where Safe's grants concentrate

Safe Marine Transfer, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under B63B (Ships OR Other Waterborne VESSELS; Equipment FOR Shipping). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Safe sits between S.A.S. of Luxemburg, LLC and Sanexen Environmental Services Inc..

Safe's three-year grant acceleration

Safe Marine Transfer, 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.
