Amsterdam-Based Audio Learning Startup Anywyse Raises Undisclosed Amount of Funding

Anywyse, an Amsterdam-based audio learning platform, has announced that it has raised an undisclosed amount in funding from UvA Ventures, an early-stage investor in academic spin-off companies from the University of Amsterdam.

Founded in 2021 by Julien Jukema, an alumnus of the University of Amsterdam, Anywyse aims to revolutionise learning by making knowledge accessible through audio. The platform’s unique approach leverages generative AI to turn written content into engaging audio learning experiences in 10 to 15-minute didactic audio bites designed to enhance knowledge retention.

Speaking about the fundraising, Founder & CEO of Anywyse, Julien Jukema, said:

We’re thrilled to have UvA Ventures join our latest funding round as we continue to pursue our goal of providing innovative learning solutions for students with learning disabilities and those seeking a more convenient and time-efficient way to learn, by leveraging the powerful combination of academic research and technology.

Teachers and learning and development (L&D) experts can upload their written material, and Anywyse technology handles the audio script and voice. With a significant 32.5 per cent higher knowledge retention than traditional podcasts, users have praised the startup’s impact on their learning experience.

Anywyse is currently engaged in pilot projects with several innovative partners, including the Utrecht University of Applied Sciences, Noordhoff, the International School of Amsterdam, and six colleges in the UK. Marleen Kappert, Investment Manager of UvA Ventures, added:

What drew us to this startup is audio technology’s potential to diversify learning methods. Anywyse has a cutting-edge platform that can reach over 1 billion people worldwide with dyslexia and ADHD.
