Does more volume mean deeper claims for Tenable?
Each dot is one of Tenable’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). Tenable’s own 26.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Tenable's grants concentrate
Tenable, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 86.2% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (8 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2019. By volume, Tenable sits between T2 Biosystems, Inc. and Tongfu Microelectronics Co., Ltd..
Tenable's three-year grant acceleration
Tenable, Inc. shows 19 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
