Ptera Inc filing-volume reading
Ptera Inc opens on filing volume: #133 of 2,138 of 2,138 Form 477 filers by deployment records (20,062 records).
Among 2,138 Form 477 providers on this site, Ptera Inc sits in the upper third by record volume (≥ 2,064). Large books usually mean many census blocks marked served, not that every block has active subscribers.
Washington alone accounts for 79.0% of Ptera Inc's filings (15,850 of 20,062), a concentrated book where one state can swing the national picture. Form 477 historically let providers mark a whole census block from a single reachable address; treat these counts as declared capability, not address-level availability, speed, or price.
