Most users reading this should be able to access the FT sources (5, 6) through ProQuest on The Wikipedia Library. IMO both are non-trivial coverage, which asked the company founder for quotes. Probably the strongest contributors towards notability. — Bilorv (talk) 13:42, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Financial Times is WP:RSP green and I do think some of the other sources (Wired (1), (3), Barrons (11)) contribute at least a little towards WP:NCORP/WP:GNG. After some thought, I'm going to be generous and accept this. An AFD is welcome if someone is unconvinced, but my job is to pass the things that are likely to survive AFD and have no other major issues. — Bilorv (talk) 13:57, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
