I have my doubts. The website does try to associate itself with these companies but some of the lines look like they are referencing side projects or very small startups.

Hey! Thanks for the feedback. It is acceptable and in fact completely recommended to include side projects and small startups on your resume. Based on my review of 500+ successful resumes, I've found that many candidates use their side projects and part time consulting gigs to showcase skillsets outside their full time job.
