Where Separation's grants concentrate

Separation Design Group LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 75% of grants classified under A61M (Devices FOR Introducing Media Into, OR Onto, THE Body ; Devices FOR Transducing Body Media OR FOR Taking Media From THE Body ; Devices FOR Producing OR Ending Sleep OR Stupor). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Separation sits between Sensetime Group Limited and SGS North America Inc..

Separation's three-year grant acceleration

Separation Design Group LLC shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
