Doesn't pass WP:CORP. I couldn't find any sources about this online, and the only sources in the article are primary. The parent company, Innovative Language Learning, also does not seem notable. (However, one of their products, Japanesepod101, does pass WP:CORP.) — Mr. Stradivarius on tour ♪ talk ♪ 05:08, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep I could find a couple reviews - it seems this software is widely used. I don't know why it would need to pass WP:CORP either because it is software. [1] is one example. It's a bit on the edge but I would give it the benefit of the doubt. Vacation9 12:35, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]- I was thinking about WP:CORP#Products and services, but probably saying WP:GNG would have been better. About the link you posted - it looks very much like a self-published source, and we can't use those to count toward notability. Do you have a link for the other review you found? Maybe that one will fare better with relation to WP:RS. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 13:57, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete As Stradivarius said, that source I linked isn't really a reliable source. The other one wasn't reliable either. Don't know what I was thinking at the time, but I'm changing my vote to delete. Fails WP:GNG. Vacation9 22:53, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - This company and its roost of softwares are not notable, with the sole exception of the Japanesepod101, there are few reviews from few unreliable or self-published sources, only mentions or whatsoever. Eduemoni↑talk↓ 14:12, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete It doesn't meet the notability guidelines. More coverage is needed to satisfy this. — ṘΛΧΣ21 02:20, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
