Comment. This company is WP:LISTED so a detailed WP:BEFORE source analysis might be useful to disprove WP:NCORP. 2001:48F8:3004:FC4:D480:5FD5:9310:3BA4 (talk) 02:30, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep. The BBC and CNBC sources seem legit but a quick WP:BEFORE analysis I did as the IP contributor suggested, barely passes SIGCOV. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TandyTRS80 (talk • contribs) 07:19, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - BBC and CNBC are just interview videos with someone - Other than that I'm unable to establish any sort of notability. Fails SIGCOV and GNG. –Davey2010^Talk 20:44, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Agree on the BBC/CNBC sources not being able to meet CORPIND, doesn't even appear to be the primary topic for "Bolt" AND "social network" which is never a good sign. Cannot verify claim of being listed, the cited source said "plans" but they had "plans" in 2021 too, where's the verifiable evidence? Smacks of process abuse.

Instagram's Bolt app might be more notable by several orders of magnitude, and I have literally never heard of that one. (not that that's a good indication of whether something is notable or not, but I think that provides some context of other topics with the same name) Alpha3031 (t • c) 06:46, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
