*Delete. A digital start up company has yet to pass the requirements of WP:NCORP.
- Keep I don't see how the subject failed WP:NCORP, for the subject to have been covered significantly by Business Day and INC as one of the new 50 global startup to watch and making it as the only startup from Africa to make the lists while receiving funding from a major organization like Kairos shows how distinguished the organization is and hence worthy of a wiki article. The subject also have enough independent detailed secondary sources and clearly meet WP:GNG and WP:ORGCRIT. Kaizenify (talk) 05:25, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment The Business Day reference is based on an announcement and contains no content not clearly attributable to a connected source, fails WP:ORGIND. Similarly, the INC reference is a small profile (provided no doubt by the company along with the photo) which fails in a similar manner. HighKing++ 20:29, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - While close, it still fails WP:NCORP. The applicable link would be WP:ORGCRIT and the references out there simply don't qualify. They are mainly blogs, brief mentions, or general announcements which are typical of a startup. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:46, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
- Weak keep: I'd notice the source [1] ([2]) which appears like an independent review against a competitor by Business Day (Nigeria).Djm-leighpark (talk) 06:06, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment There is hardly any information on the company, only the product and that is patchy at best. HighKing++ 20:32, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete- Per nom. I think according to WP:NCORP, it's not yet notable, MA Javadi (talk) 19:27, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Probably WP:TOOSOON for this company, not enough references to meet the criteria for establishing notability. Fails GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 20:29, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
