Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:NCORP, all citations to otherwise reliable sources read more like press releases or advertising than actual reporting. AlexandraAVX (talk) 17:34, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

- Keep and improve- While I agree that the article reads a bit like an advertisement, I also believe that with a bit of an overhaul, the article can be made into a decent stub. I found articles discussing the achievements of the company on Forbes and USA Today, so I don't think WP:N is an issue here. Regards, Archives908 (talk) 01:08, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
- I can't check the USA Today article due to it being blocked in the EU, but the Forbes article is written by a contributor which is considered to be self-published. AlexandraAVX (talk) 07:30, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
- Used a VPN to check, the USA Today article is also written by a contributor without editorial oversight. Neither of these articles are relevant for asserting notability from my reading of them. AlexandraAVX (talk) 18:00, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: sources are either not reliable, written by contributors or has no named author, and are clearly PR puff pieces. S0091 (talk) 16:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
- Weak delete – There is sourcing, but I'm feeling WP:NEWSORGINDIA, and some of them anyway just basically quote directly quote via an interview. USA Today/Forbes do not work here per WP:RS/P. TLAtlak 00:04, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
