Mostly created by the company CEO, the company behind the software seems to have disappeared and the company website redirects to a free flash game site in Arabic. This software does not appear to meet the requirements of WP:NSOFTWARE and its WP:GNG notability is doubtful. The only reference given in the article to an "Emerging Tech award" given by the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal and searches disclose a reference to a "Red Herring Award", the presenter of which is difficult to discern. Both are obviously promotional. Most of the returns from more-general searches are to download sites or directory listings. Many other results are mirrors or places where the same text that was used here and on the company's marketing was copied in blogs, etc. Evidence of significant, independent, reliable coverage is lacking.

Delete -- as a company, does not meet WP:NCORP / WP:CORPDEPTH. As a product, fails WP:NOTMANUAL. In either case, significant RS coverage not found. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:43, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
