The company lacks notability under WP:NCORP. The best available source is this review from Common Sense Media. Otherwise coverage is promotional or otherwise unreliable, with the current sourcing being nearly 100% from the company itself (or the website of one of its products). Speaking of promotional, the current writing feels more like a product advertisement than an article and so even if it is notable, would recommend TNT or major rewrite to avoid this issue. As an alternative to deletion recommend redirecting to Richard Rusczyk which had been done but was reverted. Barkeep49 (talk) 23:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The previous AfDs were twelve years ago, so availability of sourcing may be better now. There appears to be some nontrivial coverage in Baron, Kathryn (Fall 2019), "Serving the Math Whiz Kids: Private Enrichment Programs Step Up To Meet The Need", Education Next, 19 (4) and a short paragraph (maybe not enough depth to count for much) in McShane, Michael Q. (March 2023), Surveying Educational Entrepreneurs: The Headwinds and Tailwinds to Building New Educational Enterprises, EdChoice, at least. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:02, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW, I did find McShane and included it in my analysis above in terms of being insufficient for NCORP. I had not found Baron. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 02:46, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the founder's article - he's clearly notable, and this is his vehicle, rather than being notable in itself. Llajwa (talk) 21:44, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Richard Rusczyk as above. Its notability seems to be borderline, but not really independent from Rusczyk. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:30, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
