All the sources provided within the article are clearly paid advertisements for the company's app. Three of which are identical to each-other upto every single word. The "Sarita Magazine" source has a different title, but again the content is identical to the rest of the three, making 4 identical articles. I couldnt read one source, as it was neither in English, nor in Hindi. The launchstory.in is different, but i am not sure about its reliability; looks highly doubtful. —usernamekiran

Update: After nomination, the creator has removed the paid articles from sources. Here is the
previous version. Also, one doesnt need to be familiar with hindi language, or Devanagari script; the titles of sources in reflist/references are exactly the same. —usernamekiran

Delete Insufficient coverage to prove notability. The COI hasnt been disclosed either and this appears to be an attempt at promoting the company.

All the media channels have covered advok8.in voluntarily till now, moreover that language was Kannada which is neither Hindi or English. As soon as we are covered by more media houses they will be cited in the article too. Authenticity is a very subjective matter. — Preceding

Delete-Clearly advert stuff. Two press releases, citations from own website, and a mention at TOI are not enough — FR+ 10:25, 8 April 2018 (UTC)reply
