An directory-like page on an unremarkable tech startup. Significant RS coverage to meet

Keep Covered in both the Wall Street journal and TechCrunch. Fulfills requirements of GNG.

Delete - Pretty much all the sources in the article, and a lot of the sources available, are about seed funding, which is pretty routine coverage, and is remarkable precisely because they're a startup with no corporate history, market share, etc. But Wikipedia is not the place to cover exciting new possibilities in venture capitalism. Most of the rest of the hits I'm seeing are absolutely the worst kind of inane name dropping, passing mention, link farming, promotionalism... using junk like Think long and hard about exactly what you need to stay motivated to stuff in an image, name and a link to your website in a completely inane filler article ([1], [2], [3], [4]). It might be notable in the future, but I'm not seeing very much to suggest there's enough depth of coverage to think it's notable now. GMG ^talk 17:16, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete it has received little coverage for the funding only, otherwise non-notable and suspicious article creation. D4iNa4 (talk) 18:23, 14 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete A young company that hasn't yet achieved anything of note. Raising a seed round is insufficient for notability, and it's the only thing that has received some (limited) coverage. Fails
