Does more volume mean deeper claims for Swat?

Each dot is one of Swat’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). Swat’s own 14.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Swat's grants concentrate

Swat Medical AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% 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 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Swat sits between Surewaves Mediatech Private Limited and Synergy Sports Technology, LLC.

Swat's three-year grant acceleration

Swat Medical AB shows 4 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.
