Does more volume mean deeper claims for Torax?
Each dot is one of Torax’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). Torax’s own 13.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Torax's grants concentrate
Torax Medical, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Torax sits between ThreatMETRIX PTY Ltd and Totum Labs, Inc..
Torax's three-year grant acceleration
Torax Medical, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
