Does more volume mean deeper claims for Texas?
Each dot is one of Texas’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). Texas’s own 21.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Texas's grants concentrate
Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Texas sits between Tyco Electronics Subsea Communications LLC and The Pullman Company.
Texas's three-year grant acceleration
Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
