I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) requirement. " It was deprodded by User:Goroand (WP:SPA) with no rationale (despite the fact that I explicitly asked for one in the PROD). As I discussed in my Signpost Op-Ed, this is a good example of Yellow-Pages like product/company spam. The most it has going for it are few mentions in passing, with the best being a paragraph and a half in Forbes. I don't think that's enough to be in an encyclopedia. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:06, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as "startup spam" -- even with a section dedicated to "Fundraising History". No indications of notability or importance. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:33, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete as per nom. No indications of notability. -- HighKing⁺⁺ 12:57, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No real evidence of actual impact, and the sources listed are mighty thin, to put it mildly. --Calton | Talk 03:57, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as I concur with the nomination, as it's exact with stating the concerns, everything here exists only for advertising and nothing else, regardless of any likely notability in which this is not. SwisterTwister talk 04:26, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
