Does more volume mean deeper claims for Yubico?
Each dot is one of Yubico’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). Yubico’s own 11.1 claims/patent is at or below the 15.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Yubico's grants concentrate
Yubico AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 38.5% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Yubico sits between Yaborã Indústria Aeronáutica S.A. and Zhangyue Technology Co., Ltd.
Yubico's three-year grant acceleration
Yubico AB 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.
