Does more volume mean deeper claims for Urban?
Each dot is one of Urban’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). Urban’s own 23.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Urban's grants concentrate
Urban Intel, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G07F (Coin-freed OR Like Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Urban sits between University of Tokushima and Vakzine Projekt Management GMBH.
Urban's three-year grant acceleration
Urban Intel, Inc. shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
