The article is basically nothing but advertising copy and will need to be line-by-line rewritten if it is to be retained. Additionally, leaving aside press releases, I can find very little coverage of it in anything that could be called a reliable source. It gets passing mentions in articles about the NJ venture capital sector and reports on funding rounds in which it has participated, but actual focused coverage is very thin on the ground. Where it does exist, it tends to be puff pieces (often more about one of its partners than about the company itself (Example 1, Example 2)) or just short rephrasing of press releases by industry sites (E1, E2). These six links, by the way, constitute almost everything I could find on Google News about this company.

So from a combo of WP:TNT and dubious notability, I suggest deletion. AntiDionysius (talk) 17:57, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete pet AntiDionysius. An encyclopedia article never starts with a literal stock quote. It goes downhill from there. Bearian (talk) 01:31, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
