Not particularly notable company. Coverage is poor, mainly tech blogs, drive-by PR nods, some patents (which count as primary sources) and links to funding notifications by government agencies. All date from the early 2000's. Nothing recent as far as I can see. Famousdog (woof)(grrr) 07:25, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No ongoing news coverage. Google books mainly has directory entries. Sources in the article are not independent of the company (e.g. patents).Icewhiz (talk) 10:53, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom, doesn't seem to be notable. Sir Joseph ^(talk) 13:29, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article as it exists doesn't provide a meaningful claim of notability and no sources could be found in a Google search that would support such a claim. Alansohn (talk) 18:32, 5 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: An article supported largely by routine announcements and patent listings, which are merely confirmed by references and do not establish a company's notability. Enough to verify a company going about its business but insufficient WP:RS coverage for WP:NCORP. AllyD (talk) 14:22, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Nowhere near enough sources to justify an entry at present. Good catch, Famousdog!
