Does more volume mean deeper claims for Sarcos?
Each dot is one of Sarcos’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). Sarcos’s own 20.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Sarcos's grants concentrate
Sarcos, LC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 31 CPC subclasses with 54.5% of grants classified under B25J (MANIPULATORS; Chambers Provided With Manipulation Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Sarcos sits between Safran Cabin Inc. and Siemens PLC.
Sarcos's three-year grant acceleration
Sarcos, LC shows 4 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.
