Does more volume mean deeper claims for Shoot-a-way?

Each dot is one of Shoot-a-way’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). Shoot-a-way’s own 17.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Shoot-a-way's grants concentrate

Shoot-A-Way, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 96.6% of grants classified under A63B (Apparatus FOR Physical Training, Gymnastics, Swimming, Climbing, OR FENCING; Ball GAMES; Training Equipment). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Shoot-a-way sits between Shanghai OXi Technology Co., Ltd and Sol-Gel Technologies Ltd..

Shoot-a-way's three-year grant acceleration

Shoot-A-Way, Inc. shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
