Eligibility quiz
For finance and compliance teams
The fine print every controller wants to see, without crowding the main pitch.
Four things make us a clean fit for the audit:
- Bayern-conformant invoicing — we break out the funded portion clearly.
- BSI-Grundschutz-aligned security documentation included.
- Pre-trained open-source models — no proprietary vendor lock-in.
- Documented novelty against your current infrastructure stack.
Five milestones from submission to Verwendungsnachweis:
- Application submitted
- Approval (4–8 weeks)
- Order placed
- Delivery (2–4 weeks)
- Verwendungsnachweis (within 6 months of go-live)
Ongoing operating costs (power, maintenance after go-live), used hardware, your own internal labour, and standard office software without an innovation angle. Hardware orders placed before the application is submitted are also excluded — wait for the Bewilligungsbescheid before signing anything.
