Oslo-based EdTech and AI startup WeWillWrite has secured €2 million in growth funding to help make writing social, fun, and future-proof for the AI age. The round was co-led by Skyfall Ventures and Spintop Ventures, with continued backing from Kahoot! co-founders Johan Brand, and Jamie Brooker, alongside angels Aurora Klæboe Berg, Gaute Godager, Fredrik Schjold, and Alexander Lund. WeWillWrite has built a collaborative writing platform where students write short texts, exchange peer feedback, and develop confidence in their writing process. Already used by millions of students and 100,000 teachers across North America, the company plans to strengthen its Norwegian operations and scale further in key U.S. regions ahead of a global rollout by 2026–27. The fresh capital will fuel team expansion and product development.
Founded in 2019 by Daniel Senn, Johannes Stensen, and Erlend Klouman Høiner, WeWillWrite develops a process-oriented writing platform that encourages students to write short texts and exchange peer feedback in a shared environment. The company’s approach draws on Scandinavian pedagogy and focuses on writing as a social, creative process rather than a solitary task.
“Everyone is building better AI rockets – we’re building the platform that teaches the next generation to become rocket pilots,” says Daniel Senn, founder of WeWillWrite to EU-Startups.
The platform is already used by millions of students and over 100,000 teachers across North America. With the new funding, WeWillWrite plans to strengthen its Norwegian operations, expand its footprint in the U.S., and prepare for a global rollout in 2026–27. The company will also continue developing tools to enhance classroom engagement and teacher support.
“In this phase, it’s been crucial for us to bring on investors who understand our strategy and can give us critical expertise, while also matching our culture and pace. With Skyfall and Spintop, we’ve found exactly that,” says Senn. “We’re proud of the trust shown by two of the most experienced investors in the Nordics, which confirms that we’ve hit a global need. We’re at the beginning of something big: a movement of teachers proving just how transformative the joy of writing can be in a classroom. We’re now looking for passionate colleagues who want to help us bring this movement to classrooms worldwide.”
Investors point to the company’s combination of pedagogy and technology as key to its early success.
“WeWillWrite has cracked one of the toughest codes in education: they’ve found a way to get young people to write together, learn deeply, and experience genuine mastery,” said Johan Brand, co-founder of Kahoot! and angel investor. “It’s rare to see technology create this much meaning and energy in a classroom. Daniel and the team are building something that will leave a mark, and it feels both important and inspiring to be part of this journey.”
“WeWillWrite was founded by exceptional serial entrepreneurs with deep product and domain expertise, solving an urgent problem for a new generation,” added Preben Songe-Møller, co-founder and partner at Skyfall Ventures. “The company has already established a strong foothold in the world’s largest market and is experiencing explosive growth.”
Helen Agering, Partner at Spintop Ventures, noted: “The founding team’s extensive experience combining pedagogy and technology is evident in how they’ve managed to stand out in the U.S. market. With my own background in scaling EdTech companies in the U.S., I look for exactly this kind of network effect within teacher communities – the kind WeWillWrite has successfully created.”
WeWillWrite is among a small but growing group of Norwegian EdTech startups attracting cross-border investor attention. Its focus on writing as a social, collaborative practice aligns with a broader European trend of using AI to enhance — rather than replace — human creativity and classroom connection.
