I PROD'd this in January but it was de-PROD'd with a suggestion to take to AfD.

The sources in article are mostly business announcements of the "Hey here's what we're going to do" type and fail WP:CORPDEPTH. I cannot locate any additional sources to indicate this passes WP:NCORP. The company has now dissolved, producing no fanfare or sources as it did so. ♠PMC(talk) 16:15, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- the article exists solely to promote the business, and even includes the pricing model. Wikipedia is not a free means of promotion. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:37, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Non notable subject, finding additional sources would prove problematic. Second the point by K.e.coffman, such a small company should not have it's pricing model on it's article, it is advertising. SamHolt6 (talk) 19:55, 11 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: The best source is the Art Shortcuts item from The Guardian in 2008, but I read that as propositional, merely reporting a new venture pitch. In the absence of in-depth critical coverage of the company and its lifespan, I do not see this as meeting either WP:CORPDEPTH or WP:GNG. AllyD (talk) 06:47, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
