The company only has funding related news which is basically routine announcements of receiving funding from one source or the other. The sources are either not reliable or won't fulfil WP:CORPDEPTH. Reads promotional with all businesspersons name listed on the page. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 18:22, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Sufficient coverage in WP:RS to pass corp-depth concerns. If there is a concern on WP:PROMO targeted re-writes should be attempted. Do not see an issue in keeping this one. Good luck. Ktin (talk) 19:08, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment WP:RS agreed; but Corp-depth, please provide some examples from the sources that illustrates how it is met. I don't think it is. For the sake of others who might participate, will be good to get examples of corp-depth from this article. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 21:15, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete one bit of circumstantial evidence is that creator Special:Contributions/Sayyed Noman seems to be creating quite a few new articles, all with promotional tone. This one in particular is supposedly based in the USA but uses India-style dates, as do most of the paid editors I have seen. A million bucks in venture money is down in the noise these days of decacorns. Wait until they have some customers perhaps. WP:TOOSOON. W Nowicki (talk) 23:34, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria. I have been unable to find any references that meet NCORP criteria, topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 20:51, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
