Not notable per WP:ORG and an AI-generated WP:PROMO. As a draft, it was declined four times, rejected once, then moved to mainspace by creator. Cited sources are non-independent. WP:BEFORE turns up nothing although it is difficult to search due to its generic name. Kovcszaln6 (talk) 11:18, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

As you can see, none of the cited sources show notability. Kovcszaln6 (talk) 12:05, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Zero coverage of any kind about the software; download links don't count towards notability. Social media posts are all that come up. Not much really that we can use for notability. Appears PROMO Oaktree b (talk) 15:31, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. I'm fairly sure Product Hunt is user-generated but either way the listing there has since been deleted. Aaron Liu (talk) 17:53, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non notable software platform. Zero WP:SIGCOV. The user is clearly spamming and self-promoting. --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 21:58, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per the graph analysis the subject fails to be important and notable enough on its own. Iljhgtn (talk) 21:20, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
