Where Skyscanner's grants concentrate

Skyscanner Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 70% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Skyscanner sits between Skan Technologies Corporation and Smartsens Technology (U.S.), Inc..

Skyscanner's three-year grant acceleration

Skyscanner Limited shows 5 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.
