Does more volume mean deeper claims for Shotspotz?
Each dot is one of Shotspotz’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). Shotspotz’s own 18.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Shotspotz's grants concentrate
ShotSpotz LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Shotspotz sits between ShiftLeft Inc and Sierra Circuits, Inc..
Shotspotz's three-year grant acceleration
ShotSpotz LLC shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
