Comment: When searching, it is worth distinguishing the similarly-named "Affine DeFi" and a "Affine Protocol" crypto project which has made recent fundraising announcements. AllyD (talk) 09:24, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: A WP:SPA-authored article about a company. There have been large numbers of edits by further SPAs since it was accepted at AfC in 2018 but it remains substantially as it was then. More recently, they were mentioned by a Gartner analyst in a "Market Guide for Data and Analytics Service Providers" (2019), sponsored a UC Berkeley event on Gaming and AI (2022), announced a partnership with a digital marketing company (2023) and announced the setting up of a manufacturing lab (2023). I don't see a staff team's participation in a hackathon as notable here; if there is notability it would rest on the 2012 Analytics India interview with the CEO about obtaining angel funding, or the unbylined CIO Tech Outlook piece (2013) describing the company's aspirations: some may view these more positively, but I don't regard them as "substantial coverage" at WP:CORPDEPTH. Overall, I don't see the evidence of notability required here. AllyD (talk) 09:24, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
