Does more volume mean deeper claims for Suterra?

Each dot is one of Suterra’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). Suterra’s own 23.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Suterra's grants concentrate

Suterra, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under A01M (Catching, Trapping OR Scaring OF Animals ; Apparatus FOR THE Destruction OF Noxious Animals OR Noxious Plants). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Suterra sits between Supercooler Technologies, Inc. and Syngulon SA.

Suterra's three-year grant acceleration

Suterra, LLC shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
