It all started in 2016 when Erik Corell, a Swedish math teacher, found himself frustrated with the old-school way of giving exams. Digital exams offered advantages such as auto-marking and integrated tools and could eliminate problems like illegible handwriting and excessive paper waste. At the time, few digital exam platforms existed, and the ones that did felt over-complicated and out of touch with a teacher’s real needs in the classroom.

Determined to find a solution that worked in the real world for teachers, Erik teamed up with his friend Anders Torkelsson, an entrepreneur with a background in business and product development, and Martin Krisell, a math teacher and computer programmer, to develop Exam.net. What started with three friends has now grown into a company of over 30 experts, most of whom also have professional backgrounds in teaching.  Teachers are at the center of everything we do because our software is for teachers by teachers.
