Does more volume mean deeper claims for Spinal?

Each dot is one of Spinal’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). Spinal’s own 16.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Spinal's grants concentrate

Spinal Surgical Strategies, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 78.9% of grants classified under A61F (Filters Implantable Into Blood VESSELS; PROSTHESES; Devices Providing Patency TO, OR Preventing Collapsing OF, Tubular Structures OF THE Body, e.g. STENTS; Orthopaedic, Nursing OR Contraceptive Device). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Spinal sits between Silicon Optronics, Inc. and SSB Wind Systems GmbH & Co. KG.

Spinal's three-year grant acceleration

Spinal Surgical Strategies, Inc. shows 7 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.
