Non notable start up. A plethora of sources does not automatically make notability. This is one of many ostensibly paid articles by creator blocked per log entry: 12:53, August 2, 2018 Jimfbleak (talk | contribs | block) blocked Ryanckulp (talk | contribs) with an expiration time of indefinite (account creation blocked) (Clearly not here to contribute to the encyclopedia: 10 out of 16 of his creations have been deleted for advertising and/or suspected UPE. He has even recreated an article under different names to avoid salts, and has asked other users to remove CSD templates). 10 out of 16 spam creations deleted already.

Delete - Judging independently of the paid editing issues, the topic simply doesn't meet notability guidelines. There are typical brief mentions and announcements but nothing that would satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH. Wish there was a way to mass delete UPE articles without the need to go through AfD. Would save us a lot of work. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:20, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - as mentioned above, all the reliable sources don't satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH (both in article and elsewhere). Even in terms of routine mentions etc, it's pretty thin on the ground Nosebagbear (talk) 23:34, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hello everyone, thanks for bringing this topic to our attention. I'd love to help you resolve the issue: ShuttleCloud is one of the only companies integrated natively within consumer Gmail and is part of the INC 5000 . Ryan Kulp is an ex employee. I'm a first time wikipedia user and I'll gladly follow your advice to avoid deletion.

Thanks for the comments. The first reference is a video on YouTube showing how it integrates with Gmail. This is neither a reliable source or evidence of notability to satisfy Wikipedia standards. The second is from BizJournals which while reliable, is only a list which the company is included with. The Inc. 5000 does not infer notability for all companies on the list. ShuttleCloud will need to meet the guidelines found in WP:NCORP, including showing significant coverage in WP:RS which meet WP:CORPDEPTH. My search was unable to find any that would suffice. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:06, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
