- File:Symbol opinion vote.svg Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:NCORP) but presently it is not clear that it does. As you may know, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’. In short, "notability" requires reliable sources about the subject, rather than by the subject.Please note that some of the references would appear to be from sources that are NOT considered reliable for establishing notability and should be removed (including blogs, company websites, press releases, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Spotify etc). Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like a promotional CV or advertorial (see WP:PROMO), which Wikipedia is not.The draft does not appear to show that the subject has any notability beyond the average coverage in trade publications for similar corporations (see WP:ROTM). Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being the subject, you must declare that on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). In instances of a conflict of interest, the review of the page needs to be handled with care, mindful of the higher bar set by pages produced in circumstances of such a conflict. Such pages typically may read too much like a promotional CV or advertorial (see WP:PROMO), which Wikipedia is not; and/or contain prose that is not of a standard appropriate for an encyclopaedia (also see WP:PEACOCK and WP:NPV). Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page.It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject. It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:NCORP criteria #3, because XXXXX"). Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page, including the name of the draft page, and I would be happy to reassess.

Daxbot is an American robotics company based in Philomath, Oregon. The company develops autonomous robots used for tasks such as sidewalk accessibility assessments and private security patrols.[1][2]
History
[edit | edit source]Work on Dax originated in Philomath, Oregon, where in 2017 the city approved testing of a small delivery robot developed by local firm Nova Dynamics (later branded “Dax”).[3] A 2022 article referred to Sullivan as founder and owner of Daxbot and summarized ongoing community deployments.[4]
In 2025, the City of Irvine announced the use of Daxbot robots to survey sidewalks and curb ramps as part of the city’s ADA Title II self-evaluation; the project was led by city contractor Bureau Veritas.[5][6] Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo reported a campus project using three Daxbot robots to map more than 31 miles of paths to inform its ADA Transition Plan.[7][8] In Austin, broadcaster KVUE reported that CTX Patrol partnered with Daxbot to deploy security robots for site patrol.[9]
In November of 2025 the Salem Center Mall in Salem, OR started using Daxbot as a security patrol, and it was also announced that Daxbot would soon begin working to cut down vandalism and drifting at Pringle Parkade.[10]
Products and technology
[edit | edit source]Daxbot designs sidewalk-assessment robots that collect measurements related to accessibility, such as slopes, widths, and curb-ramp attributes, to support ADA self-evaluations and transition planning.[11][12]
The company’s security robots are used by private security firms for mobile video monitoring and site patrols.[13]
