There doesn't seem to be anything notable about the company. Its just an insurance app company. None of the sources establish anything. Plus, the article is seriously written as an advert. JaneciaTaylor (talk) 18:44, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

- Keep After two pages of Google searches I found the following, and they seem to meet WP:GNG. https://techcrunch.com/2019/12/03/cuvva-raises-15m/ https://www.eu-startups.com/2019/12/london-based-cuvva-raises-e17-5-million-series-a-funding-to-launch-new-pay-monthly-insurance-product/ https://www.altfi.com/article/5825_cuvva-appoints-lloyds-of-london-chairman-to-chair-its-board https://www.finextra.com/newsarticle/34550/lloyds-of-london-chair-joins-insurtech-startup-cuvva https://www.ft.com/content/3546c692-e9c4-11e9-a240-3b065ef5fc55 https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/motoring/pay-as-you-go-insurance-explained/ If a re-write is required, mark it as such.

- Walter Görlitz, Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources#TechCrunch says that there is no consensus that TechCrunch is a reliable source, and may be less useful for the purpose of determining notability. The author, Steve O'Hear is staff and he appears to declare his CoI. The extent to which the article is based on public relations material from Curvva is less clear. A LOT of it is just quoting the company. Is O'Hear actually doing any kind of reporting or analysis? I don't see it. Vexations (talk) 21:44, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
Delete Totally not notable. The TechCrunch article clearly doesn't cut it for the reasons given by Vexations. The citations to awards don't either. Which really doesn't leave much. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:36, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
