Exam.net

What Exam.net does

Exam.net is a Stockholm-based edtech company (operating under parent entity Teachiq AB) that provides a secure online examination and assessment platform for educational institutions. Founded in 2016 by Erik Corell, Anders Torkelsson, and Martin Krisell—two of whom are former mathematics teachers—the platform enables teachers to create, administer, and auto-grade digital exams with anti-cheating features including browser lockdown, background cheat detection, question randomization, and randomized answer options. As of the most recent available data, Exam.net is used by over 270,000 teachers across approximately 20,000 schools and 1,000 universities in more than 100 countries, with the platform having started over 70 million exams cumulatively and Exam.net Maths used in over 90% of Swedish upper secondary schools.

The core Exam.net platform is a web-based application that supports subject-specific tooling including GeoGebra and Desmos for mathematics, equation editors with Greek letters and symbols, spell-check in 10 languages, and programming environments for JavaScript and Python. The product suite includes Exam.net Maths (a question bank and test-making tool for IB, GCSE, IGCSE, and A Level curricula bundled with the platform license), browser lockdown mode with three security tiers, real-time monitoring dashboards, built-in student-teacher chat, and accessibility accommodations (text-to-speech, translator, extra time, dictionary). Integrations span Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams for Education, TurnItIn, Ouriginal, Safe Exam Browser (SEB), GeoGebra, and Desmos. The platform meets GDPR, FERPA, COPPA, and SOPIPA privacy standards and is JCQ-compliant in the UK, SQA-compliant in Scotland, NZQA-compliant in New Zealand, and approved for nationwide final exams in Sweden.

Exam.net operates a hybrid product-led and community-led go-to-market motion. Teachers can self-register for a 30-day free trial without a credit card, and exams are accessed by students through exam keys, eliminating the need for student account provisioning and materially reducing adoption friction. Conversion paths lead to quote-based annual institutional licenses that bundle the core platform with Exam.net Maths; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Distribution combines direct website sign-up, sales-assisted enterprise quotes for schools/districts and universities, and indirect distribution through LMS marketplace integrations with Google Classroom and Microsoft Teams. National exam approvals (notably Sweden) provide an additional government-procurement channel. The company is privately held with no disclosed venture funding rounds and no publicly reported revenue figures, suggesting a bootstrapped capital structure.
