Insufficient evidence of notability . The item in the Sydney Morning Hrald isa promotional article where the founders talk about their own project, and therefore is not independent by the standards of WP:NCOPR. The article in the Austin Statesman is a notice of funding + a quote from the founder and thus is not reliable for RS. The article in the Australian ,which I cannot access, also seems from the visible information to be either a statement by the founder or based on a statement by the founder. checking Google News and even Google I find more of the same:announcement of finance, and promotional interviews or reprints of what seem to be identical promotional interviews. Theeare discussions on reddit and quora. DGG ( talk ) 22:10, 25 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I started this article thinking that the merger with Linux Academy would make it notable. Their co-founder also won the Entrepreneur of the Year award from Ernst and Young Zr2d2 (talk) 15:00, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep on the basis of current coverage. It's a bit promotional, but it more talks about them than promotes I think. Can't seem to access the other articles owing to what appears to be a paywall, so if we can get some better coverage that'll strengthen it up I think. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 06:03, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- I don't work for, or subscribe to A Cloud Guru, so it certainly isn't meant to be promotional, if you have a NPOV way of stating things I would be open to it Zr2d2 (talk) 02:23, 16 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
