Does more volume mean deeper claims for Sphere?

Each dot is one of Sphere’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). Sphere’s own 20.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Sphere's grants concentrate

Sphere Entertainment Group, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 61.9% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). By volume, Sphere sits between Soilgenic Technologies, LLC and Stein Seal Company.

Sphere's three-year grant acceleration

Sphere Entertainment Group, LLC shows 10 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.
