Sound familiar?

The work is done. The money isn't in yet.

Paperwork

The work is done. The paperwork is still waiting.

Typing up slips, adding up hours, writing invoices.

5+ hextra paperwork per week – at every second firm in the Dortmund chamber district¹

With Baumorgen: The invoice is created from the work report. Nothing is retyped.

Extra work

The extra work nobody signed.

Agreed by word of mouth on site, disputed on the invoice or forgotten altogether. Money you earned long ago.

With Baumorgen: The customer approves extra work on the phone before the work starts.

E-invoice

E-invoicing becomes mandatory.

48days to go

For invoices to other businesses: from 2027 above €800,000 prior-year turnover, from 2028 for nearly all German firms.²

With Baumorgen: E-invoices as ZUGFeRD and XRechnung are built in.

¹ Chamber of Crafts Dortmund, survey 2023. ² § 27 (38) German VAT Act (UStG), e-invoice transition rules. As of November 2026.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

When can I start using Baumorgen?

The pilot phase is expected to start in January 2027. We agree the exact start date with each pilot firm personally. If the start moves, we tell you in good time. Your application does not commit you to anything and costs you nothing.

What does Baumorgen cost after the pilot?

We set prices together with our pilot firms and tell you well before the 3 months end. Then you decide in your own time: the pilot phase ends by itself, and a subscription only starts if you take one out. The subscription can be cancelled monthly.

Where is my data?

In data centres in the EU. Before you work with real customer data, we sign a data processing agreement with you under Art. 28 GDPR.

Can I take my data with me?

Yes. If you stop, we provide your data as an export: invoices and reports as PDF, customers and jobs in common file formats.

Does my customer need to install anything?

No. Your customer opens the link to your customer portal, enters their email address and gets a sign-in code by email – no app, no password. Then they see their job in the browser.

Do I need new devices?

No. Baumorgen runs in the browser on your PC and on current smartphones (iPhone and Android).

Who do I reach if something goes wrong?

As a pilot firm, us founders – directly, no call centre – by email and phone.
