Does more volume mean deeper claims for Schroff?

Each dot is one of Schroff’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). Schroff’s own 17.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Schroff's grants concentrate

Schroff Technologies International, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F24F (AIR-CONDITIONING; AIR-HUMIDIFICATION; VENTILATION; USE OF AIR Currents FOR Screening). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Schroff sits between Schaefer Kalk GmbH & Co. KG and Scidea Research, Inc..

Schroff's three-year grant acceleration

Schroff Technologies International, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
