Hey there!

We are Planet Peanut

30.000+ students
5 national championships
1 mission

Planet Peanut is a learning universe where games, collaboration and curiosity go hand in hand.
We combine play and expertise so that students can learn, compete and have fun – both in class and on their own.

Our most famous event is the Danish Mathematics Championship, where thousands of students compete through our app every year to win the golden peanut. Along the way, they solve tasks, work together in teams and experience that learning can be both exciting and motivating.

We believe that the best learning happens when students are challenged, motivated and engaged. That’s why we build our platform so that it can:

Create community through collaboration and friendly competition

Adapt challenges to different levels

Give teachers tools to follow students’ development

Planet Peanut is developed by a passionate team in Denmark who are passionate about making learning fun, accessible and effective – no matter where you are.

Welcome to a planet where learning feels like a game, and where everyone has a chance to reach the top of Peanut Peak.
