Austrian Startup Newsrooms Secures €750K To Revolutionize AI-powered Content Creation

Founded in 2024, newsrooms describes itself as an “AI text manufacturing company,” enabling users to automatically generate articles, press releases, social media posts, and books from text, documents, or audio. Its platform helps communication teams, agencies, and editorial offices save time on content production, allowing more focus on strategy, creativity, and research.

The platform stands out for its high language quality, precise user-specific adaptation, and EU-only data processing for maximum security. Unlike other AI tools, it works without prompts users upload content or compose directly in the tool, which then produces multi-format outputs for blogs, press releases, or social media with a single click.

Initially developed within Hermann Futter’s Compass Group, newsrooms is now fully owned by its founding team. Futter remains an investor, joined by Hansi Hansmann’s Hans(wo)men Group. In June 2025, newsrooms acquired Austrian tech media platform Trending Topics.

Erek Stoisser, CEO and co-founder of newsrooms, shared: "With newsrooms, we are not only striving for a simplification of work processes, but a sustainable transformation of content production and journalism.

Due to the high response in Austria, we are already planning expansion into other European markets in the coming months."

The founding team, alongside experienced PR and advertising professional Stoisser, includes CTO Matteo Rosoli, Head of AI Alexander Maitz, and, following the Trending Topics acquisition, its founders Jakob Steinschaden and Bastian Kellhofer.

"With this team, we precisely combine the expertise that our target groups need daily with the technical know-how that translates these requirements into practical solutions," says CEO Erek Stoisser.

Hansi Hansmann shared: "I find the vision of newsrooms fascinating. In the future, just one person can take over the content creation of an entire publishing house. I find the quality of their work particularly convincing.

When Hermann Futter first told me about newsrooms, I absolutely wanted to be part of this idea.

The communications industry is experiencing the second major disruption after search and social media. With new tools like newsrooms, this crisis-tested industry can now work efficiently and generate profits."

According to Hermann Futter."When I saw the tool for the first time, I immediately recognised the impact it would have on communication departments and the media industry. AI must be seen as an opportunity to produce content more efficiently and synergistically."
