Does more volume mean deeper claims for Workshare?
Each dot is one of Workshare’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). Workshare’s own 21.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Workshare's grants concentrate
Workshare, Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 85.7% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Workshare sits between Wikipad, Inc. and Xtpl S.A..
Workshare's three-year grant acceleration
Workshare, Ltd. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
