Fails WP:NCORP. Refs are routine business news and PR.  scope_creep Talk  12:19, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Weak delete per nom, might be a case of WP:TOOSOON. Coverage available consists of press releases (Business Insider) and routine business pieces in the usual publications such as TechCrunch and Forbes, and in local Chicago outlets, all lacking any any analysis.

Not a single source is valid enough to pass WP:NCORP. It is an brochure advertising article.  scope_creep Talk  20:36, 23 October 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 16:57, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
