About

Kahoots (KahootsHQ) was a skills-matching and team-building marketplace founded around 2014 by Allison Rhodes and Kaylie Greaves, master's students at Ryerson University, and incubated at the DMZ. Users posted a project and the specific skills they were looking for, and contributors browsed a project board to connect. It has since wound down. It is unrelated to the Kahoot! quiz platform.

Incubated at Ryerson University's DMZ; no outside funding confirmed

Is Kahoots related to Kahoot!?

No. This is a separate, long-defunct Toronto startup and is not the Kahoot! quiz-learning platform.
