Does more volume mean deeper claims for Secretary?
Each dot is one of Secretary’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). Secretary’s own 14.8 claims/patent is at or below the 19.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Secretary's grants concentrate
Secretary of State for Health and Social Care is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 75% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Secretary sits between Scrrd, Inc. and Seda International Packaging Group SPA.
Secretary's three-year grant acceleration
Secretary of State for Health and Social Care shows 3 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.
