The operating system for
German bureaucracy.
A browser desktop OS that bundles hundreds of tools and thousands of official forms into one place - deterministic, self-hosted in Germany, built without AI or data brokers.
The state cannot digitize itself fast enough.
The Online Access Act (OZG) set out to make 575 administrative services available online. The rollout has repeatedly missed its own deadlines - the gap between the promise and reality is well documented. Meanwhile every resident still has to deal with the system.
A market that has to interact
A fragmented landscape
No integrated place
One desktop. Two shells. Hundreds of tools.
Werkzeu.ge presents German bureaucracy as an operating system in the browser - not a dashboard, an OS with windows, a taskbar, search and a file cabinet. 344+ tools live today, 1.520+ planned. Available in German and English.
Two shells, one registry
Flagship: Formularamt
Client-side where possible
The lock-in is structural, not contractual.
The product is designed so that value compounds and switching gets harder the longer someone stays. Three reinforcing layers.
Amtsprofil: fill once
A corpus hard to replicate
Price-lock loyalty by design
Each new tool added makes the whole platform more valuable to everyone already inside it - a compounding, single-product network effect.
Freemium with a built-in price ladder.
Four tiers, from free-forever access up to team and automation features. Tool counts below are live from the registry. Prices shown are the full v1.0 rates.
| Tier | Tools | v1.0 price |
|---|---|---|
| Guest | 84 | Free, no signup |
| Free | 106 | Free with account |
| Plus | 295 | 16,99 EUR / mo |
| Pro | 344 | 25,99 EUR / mo |
B2B angles are live too: team seats, E-Rechnung / XRechnung tools, and an HR / Personalverwaltung suite. Annual plans cost 10x the monthly rate (two months free). All prices include 19% German VAT.

Pro 13,99 EUR / mo
Pro 17,99 EUR / mo
Pro 25,99 EUR / mo
Owned infrastructure, no AI bill.
The stack is self-hosted and deterministic on purpose. That is a data-sovereignty story for users and a cost story for investors.
11 servers in Germany
No AI means no inference cost
Proven, boring stack
Organic-first distribution
From beta to platform.
The path is about depth and reach, not a pivot: harden into v1.0, spin out focused satellites, and keep widening the toolset toward the full plan.
- 1v1.0 on December 1, 2026. The founder pricing phase closes and full pricing begins. The product steps out of open beta.
- 2Satellite microsites. formularamt.de and amtsprofil.de as focused entry points that funnel into the platform around its two strongest assets.
- 3Fax and channels. Sending finished paperwork straight from the platform, including fax, so a filled form reaches the office without leaving the desktop.
- 4API & automation for Pro. Programmatic access and automation for teams and business users on the Pro tier.
- 5Toward 1,520+ features. From 344+ tools live today toward the full planned scope of roughly 1,520 features - each new one compounding the value of the rest.
German bureaucracy is the largest under-digitized civic market in the German-speaking world. Werkzeu.ge is building the integrated platform to serve it - and it is already live.
Let us build the interface the state cannot.
We are opening conversations with strategic partners and investors who understand the German market and want to help scale a live, revenue-bearing product from hundreds of tools toward thousands. Detailed traction is shared under NDA.

Questions investors ask
›What stage is Werkzeu.ge at?
A live product in public beta since March 2026, with 344+ working tools in both shells and the Formularamt corpus of 6,800+ official forms. Version 1.0 is targeted for December 1, 2026. Not a prototype, not a mockup.
›Who is behind Werkzeu.ge?
Cryon UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Leipzig. A solo technical founder, bootstrapped. Managing director Jonas Kutavicius, a developer who has lived German bureaucracy firsthand.
›Why no AI?
Every tool runs on deterministic logic. That means no hallucinations, no per-request inference cost, and no dependency on a third-party model provider. Tax logic is built from official BMF formulas. It also keeps data inside Germany.
›What is the moat?
Three layers: the zero-knowledge Amtsprofil vault (fill your data once, every tool pre-fills), the integrated breadth (one desktop instead of ten single-purpose tools), and the Formularamt corpus with per-form provenance. Each new tool makes every existing tool more useful.
›Do you publish revenue or user numbers here?
No. This page states only what can be verified from the live product - tools online, forms in the corpus, servers, planned features. Detailed traction figures are shared directly with serious partners under NDA.
›Why now?
Founder pricing runs until November 30, 2026; full v1.0 pricing starts December 1, 2026. The price a subscriber locks in during the founder phase holds for as long as the subscription stays active.
