Does more volume mean deeper claims for Waterblasting?

Each dot is one of Waterblasting’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). Waterblasting’s own 11.7 claims/patent is at or below the 17.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Waterblasting's grants concentrate

Waterblasting, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 57.1% of grants classified under E01C (Construction OF, OR Surfaces FOR, Roads, Sports Grounds, OR THE LIKE; Machines OR Auxiliary Tools FOR Construction OR Repair). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Waterblasting sits between Woco Industrietechnik GmbH and Winnebago Industries, Inc..

Waterblasting's three-year grant acceleration

Waterblasting, LLC shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
