Does more volume mean deeper claims for Vast.com?

Each dot is one of Vast.com’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). Vast.com’s own 17.6 claims/patent is at or below the 20.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Vast.com's grants concentrate

VAST.COM, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under G06Q (Information AND Communication Technology [ICT] Specially Adapted FOR Administrative, Commercial, Financial, Managerial OR Supervisory PURPOSES; Systems OR Methods Specially Adapted FOR Administrative,). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Vast.com sits between Universiti Brunei Darussalam and Voiceage Corporation.

Vast.com's three-year grant acceleration

VAST.COM, Inc. shows 8 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.
