Norwegian EdTech and AI startup WeWillWrite is rapidly growing in the U.S. and has now raised €2 million in growth capital to help make writing social, playful, and a core skill for the AI age.
The round was led by Skyfall Ventures and Spintop Ventures. Existing angel investors, including Johan Brand and Jamie Brooker (co-founders of Kahoot!), Aurora Klæboe Berg, Gaute Godager, Fredrik Schjold, and Alexander Lund, also increased their ownership stakes.
“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.
Within the broader European EdTech landscape in 2025, WeWillWrite’s €2 million growth round sits within a steady stream of AI-driven learning investments.
Danish startup Alice raised €4.2 million to expand its personalised-learning and social study platform, while Paris-based PyxiScience secured €2 million to scale its adaptive AI-powered mathematics platform. In central Europe, Zurich’s Evulpo collected €9.3 million to enhance its digital classroom content, and German peers Knowunity and EDURINO secured €27 million and €17 million respectively for AI-tutoring and playful early-learning tools.
Compared with these rounds, WeWillWrite’s raise is modest but aligned with the early-growth stage funding seen in more specialised niches such as writing and peer feedback.
None of the above companies are Norwegian, making WeWillWrite notable as one of few EdTech ventures from Norway to attract 2025 European investor attention. Overall, its focus on social, process-based writing aligns with a wider trend across Europe: deploying AI not to replace teachers, but to enhance classroom creativity and engagement.
“It has always been a challenge to get students to enjoy writing. WeWillWrite did this magically! It would be sorely missed if we lost access!” says Darby Hiebert, a 7th-grade teacher.
Founded in 2019, WeWillWrite develops a process-oriented AI platform for writing instruction, where students write short texts and give each other feedback. The platform has already attracted millions of U.S. students and over 100,000 teachers across elementary and middle schools.
WeWillWrite addresses one of education’s most pressing challenges: students are writing less and with less confidence than ever before. In the U.S., 73% of students struggle with writing.
The company aims to reverse this trend by helping students express themselves clearly, critically, and creatively – mastering AI as a tool, rather than letting AI do the work for them.
“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. 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,” says angel investor Johan Brand, co-founder of Kahoot!.
The platform transforms writing into a social, engaging experience. Students write short texts, give each other feedback, and experience mastery together. The platform boasts a unique real-time feedback system and an ever-growing library of engaging prompts.
“WeWillWrite was founded by exceptional serial entrepreneurs with deep product and domain expertise, solving an urgent problem for a new generation. The company has already established a strong foothold in the world’s largest market and is experiencing explosive growth,” says Preben Songe-Møller, co-founder and partner at Skyfall Ventures.
After launching in the U.S. and Canada in March 2025, WeWillWrite is already being used regularly by tens of thousands of teachers and millions of students, especially across elementary and middle schools.
“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,” says Helen Agering, Partner at Spintop Ventures.
The next step is strengthening the organization in Norway while expanding across key U.S. regions ahead of a global launch in 2026–27.
“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.
He adds: “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.”
