About

Nuwa is a technology company based in Groningen, Netherlands, founded in 2022. The company focuses on creating smart writing tools that combine traditional pen-and-paper note-taking with digital organization. The flagship product, the Nuwa Pen, is an AI-powered smart ballpoint pen that digitizes handwritten notes. It features three integrated cameras and motion and pressure-sensing electronics to capture ink strokes on any type of paper. The pen offers approximately two hours of active writing time and is compatible with standard D1 ink cartridges. Accompanying the pen is the Nuwa Infinite Canvas app, which provides secure storage, search functionality, and note-sharing capabilities. Nuwa targets individuals who enjoy handwriting but seek the benefits of digital organization. The company has secured €2.5 million in seed funding and began shipping its first units in February 2025.
