Teachers should focus on children, not paperwork

14. 12. 2021 | open.spotify.com

The Twigsee app was founded by Vanda Seidel when she saw how outdated the kindergarten her son was attending was. Parents can use the app to fill out excuse slips, order lunches or pay school fees. In addition, the investor Jiří Hlavenka's and entrepreneur Jan Sláma's fund invested 13 million Jinej in the app recently, enabling the company to expand abroad. How does the app work and what are the next plans?

Startup Alert

13. 09. 2021 | Budapest Letters

This week’s alert is on Twigsee, a god send to all parents with children in preschools. Of course, I can talk only about my experiences with Austrian and Hungarian nurseries / kindergardens, but based on these, Twigsee is tapping into a market that is set for digital distruption. Everything is paper based, outdated and slow. Tracking of payments, events and important issues, or just keeping in-touch with educators are a pain in the back. A postcard from the 1970s, at least.

For a more modern kindergarten. Another fund invests 13 million in the Twigsee app.

Another fund of investor Jiří Hlavenka and entrepreneur Jan Sláma is investing CZK 13 million in the Twigsee app, which focuses on modernising and digitising nurseries. In the current investor round, the app has raised more than 21 million. CzechCunch reported today. Twigsee was founded by Vanda Siedelová when she saw how outdated the kindergarten her son was attending was. Parents can use the app to fill out excuse slips, order lunches or pay school fees, while the teachers send parents up-to-date photos of their children. At the same time, Twigsee completely digitises the school and thus simplifies administration.

The digital revolution in kindergartens is gaining momentum. Hlavenka and Sláma invest millions of crowns in Twigsee.

When Vanda Seidelová put her son Filípek in kindergarten two years ago, she discovered that the kindergarten was functioning in the same way as it had thirty years ago. Classrooms, attendance records, physical bulletin boards and lots of paperwork. So she started to create an app called Twigsee to prepare everything for the 21st century. And now she's taking on new investment and preparing to expand globally. Thirteen million crowns are being sent to Twigsee by Jinej fond, which is 70% owned by Brno investor and South Moravian councillor Jiří Hlavenka and 30% by entrepreneur Jan Sláma.

Banks have started to react to what is happening in the market and are investing in startups

26. 03. 2021 | idnes.cz

Young innovative finance firms have their eyes set on clients of established financial houses and who have lots of ideas. Banks, in turn, have plenty of money to make a fierce competitor a committed ally. Each of the big banks - Česká spořitelna, Komerční banka and ČSOB treat fintech startups a little differently. ČSOB created the IT startup accelerator program, supporting innovative projects, including Twigsee.

What are the preschools
currently using Twigsee saying about it?

Mr. Jimmy

Hello, so far so good with Twigsee. We have managed to create classes and upload students' names. The teachers' names have been shared already and we believe by next week we might have progressed further. Thanks to all.

Twigsee caught our attention right away from the presentation thanks to the range of functions offered. It wasn't a system that only dealt with attendance or just the registry. It offered us the opportunity to have everything under one roof. And the cherry on top of the cake was the possibility of sending parents contributions about how their children are doing in preschool that day. Parents liked the app very quickly. At first, teachers were more concerned about whether preschool management wanted to give them extra work. However, they soon discovered that writing to parents made them happy, and they also finally have an overview of the children's attendance for each day. Twigsee can handle all that is on the agenda in a preschool as well as accounting. Forest preschool, Pohádky z.s., Zvole
