Reviewed through NPP. Article on a software company referenced to random no-name websites and primary sources, nothing better to be found through WP:BEFORE. Closest thing to a claim of notability here is that it was a finalist (not a winner!) in a non-notable app competition. Decisive failure of WP:NCORP. See also Synder App. Spicy (talk) 10:38, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - references taken from primarily sources on accounting software (Insightful Accountant, Intuit Developer, XU Magazine). The company has also won a grandprize at a large hackathon sponsored by Intuit - a major accounting software developer. Argument for notability within the accounting software ecosystem. Primary sources taken down. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seabreeze44 (talk • contribs) 11:00, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - the topic does not seem to meet WP:NCORP criteria. The article does cite a number of sources, but some are unreliable and others do not constitute the in-depth, independence coverage required by NCORP. SamHolt6 (talk) 23:10, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Winning and being a finalist in a couple of niche app competitions does not translate into notability here, falling under trivial coverage at WP:CORPDEPTH. Aside from these competitions, the provided references are a couple of product how-to reviews - again not translating into notability for the developing company. Searches are not finding better; fails WP:NCORP. AllyD (talk) 06:31, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ - added Business Insider and Yahoo Finance sources (1.5 Million dollars processed) User talk:Seabreeze44 —Preceding undated comment added 11:08, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your further comments are welcome in this discussion, but please do not add multiple keep/delete opinions. Also, Yahoo Finance and Business Insider are both labelled as a PR Newswire press release, not WP:RS coverage. AllyD (talk) 11:13, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:Seabreeze44 Thank you, I didn't know! I thought that the high source validity would add validity to even a press release. —Preceding undated comment added 11:28, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Just FYI, the criteria for establishing notability is not simply whether the source is reliable/valid/high profile/etc but also includes whether the *content* is *independent*. Please read WP:ORGIND for an explanation. HighKing⁺⁺ 13:31, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
