Does more volume mean deeper claims for Zilliz?
Each dot is one of Zilliz’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). Zilliz’s own 17.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Zilliz's grants concentrate
Zilliz Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 1 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). By volume, Zilliz sits between Zhejiang Yankon Mega Lighting Co., Ltd. and Zoran (FRANCE) S.A..
Zilliz's three-year grant acceleration
Zilliz Inc. shows 1 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.
