Delete; spammy, short on notability. I was shocked - shocked! - to discover that the anonymous editor adding lots of links to this article geolocates to Durham College, where Blancride was developed. bobrayner (talk) 23:52, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Retain; It's a new product, and non-profit. I was surprised that the article is under consideration for deletion - I wonder how much is due to attack from commercial for-profit services that see this as a competitor. My vote is to not delete.

Delete. It's a new product, with only minor local media coverage and "more than 1,000 users" as of February 5, 2015.[1] Every new app wants publicity, but you can't hitch a ride here. Clarityfiend (talk) 18:05, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Seems to have attained fair notability and is comparable to Uber. Keep for now. Suttungr (talk) 18:57, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Listed sources do not provide significant coverage for subject matter (rather, it is Uber and general issues surrounding it). Lack of reliable sources covering the app, fails WP:GNG. - Mailer Diablo 23:53, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
