Does more volume mean deeper claims for Towerstar?

Each dot is one of Towerstar’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). Towerstar’s own 5.2 claims/patent is at or below the 16.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Towerstar's grants concentrate

Towerstar Pets, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 21.1% of grants classified under A01K (Animal HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; Rearing OR Breeding Animals, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; NEW Breeds OF Animals). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Towerstar sits between Temasek Life Sicences Laboratory Limited and Taiheiyo Cement Corporation.

Towerstar's three-year grant acceleration

Towerstar Pets, LLC shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 13 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.
