Ottawa edtech startup EssayJack acquired by Vancouver's Wize

An Ottawa-based startup that’s helped more than 30,000 students complete essays, book reports and speeches is preparing to write a new chapter of its own after being acquired by Vancouver online learning platform Wize.
EssayJack was launched in 2014 by Lindy Ledohowski, a former high school English teacher and university professor, with her husband Rueban Balasubramaniam, an associate professor at Carleton University’s department of law and legal studies, after seeing students persistently struggle with essay-writing.
The startup rolled out a web-based app that provides templates, frameworks, tips and prompts to reduce stress among students when they sit down in front of their computer by “making that blank screen less intimidating,” Ledohowski told OBJ in an earlier interview.
