Kahoot! is a game-based learning platform founded in 2012 in Trondheim, Norway, spun out of research at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, with the mission of making learning awesome by transforming education and training into engaging, competitive, social experiences. The company was founded on the pedagogical conviction that active participation — answering questions under time pressure in a group setting — dramatically improves knowledge retention compared to passive instruction, and that the mechanics of games (points, leaderboards, competition) could be applied to any learning context from school classrooms to corporate training to social trivia. Kahoot! was built as a platform accessible on any device with a web browser, requiring no installation and enabling instant deployment in live group settings.\n\nKahoot!'s core product allows educators, trainers, and presenters to create multiple-choice quizzes, polls, and word puzzles — called kahoots — that participants join via a game PIN on their devices. The platform has expanded significantly into asynchronous learning, with Challenge mode for self-paced assignments, Courses for structured learning journeys, and an AI-powered question generator that accelerates content creation. Kahoot! at Work targets corporate L&D teams with branded training games, onboarding programs, and meeting engagement tools. The platform integrates with Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Canvas, and major LMS platforms, embedding Kahoot! into existing learning workflows.\n\nKahoot! reached $150 million in revenue as of October 2025 and has accumulated 4 billion participants across 200 countries, making it one of the most widely used educational technology platforms in the world. In 2024, the company was taken private in a $1.7 billion acquisition led by Goldman Sachs Alternatives, General Atlantic, and Kirkbi, reflecting institutional confidence in its growth trajectory despite the post-pandemic normalization of the EdTech sector. Its combination of extraordinary scale, freemium-to-enterprise monetization, and a product roadmap anchored in AI-assisted content generation positions Kahoot! as the dominant brand in interactive learning globally.
Long-standing childcare management software for daycare centers and preschools covering billing, enrollment, check-in, and reporting. Denver, CO. Raised $145M+. Serves 37,000+ programs.
Procare Solutions is a Denver, Colorado-based childcare management software company with over 35 years in the market, serving more than 37,000 child care programs across the United States. The company raised over $145 million in private equity backing led by Warburg Pincus and has pursued an aggressive acquisition strategy to consolidate the childcare technology market. Procare's software manages the core operational and financial workflows of childcare programs including enrollment, family records, daily check-in and check-out, billing, payment processing, staff management, and regulatory reporting.\n\nProcare offers two primary platform configurations: Procare Desktop, a locally installed Windows application that has served its large existing customer base for decades, and Procare Online, a cloud-based platform that provides the same core functionality with mobile accessibility and real-time data synchronization. The company has worked to migrate its customer base toward the cloud platform while maintaining compatibility for established users on the desktop product. Procare also offers Procare App, a parent engagement mobile application that connects families to daily activities and communications from their child's program.\n\nProcare has expanded through acquisitions of complementary childcare technology companies, adding capabilities in areas like curriculum planning, child development assessments, and specialized software for school-age and camp programs. As the largest established player in childcare management software by number of programs served, Procare competes primarily on breadth of features, deep regulatory reporting for state subsidy billing, and the trust built through decades of market presence. It faces competitive pressure from newer entrants like Brightwheel, which compete on user experience design and integrated payments.
