Does more volume mean deeper claims for Visual?
Each dot is one of Visual’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). Visual’s own 20.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Visual's grants concentrate
Visual Defence Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under G06V (Image OR Video Recognition OR Understanding). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Visual sits between Vision Products, LLC and Vitec Videocom Inc..
Visual's three-year grant acceleration
Visual Defence Inc. shows 3 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.
