AmtsGuide makes government processes in Germany understandable, verifiable and searchable. For every city, every district, every federal state.

The platform translates complex administrative procedures into clear step-by-step guides: What do I need? What does it cost? Where do I go? How long does it take? Every fact has a source and a verification date.

We are upfront about this: AmtsGuide uses AI extensively. AI scans government websites, extracts facts, identifies structures and creates drafts. Without AI, it would not be possible to process government knowledge for hundreds of cities and municipalities.

But AI alone is not enough. Our promise is human verification. No fact goes live without a human checking it. Every published piece of information carries a source and a verification date. When something changes, we make it visible.

This is not marketing. This is our business model. AI can collect, structure and process data. But whether a fee is correct, whether an address is current, whether a procedure has changed, that requires a human. The combination of AI efficiency and human diligence is what makes AmtsGuide work.

We believe AI works best when humans are part of the process. Not as an afterthought, but as an integral part. Human-in-the-loop is not a buzzword for us, it is the core of our work.

Andreas Dahrendorf founded AmtsGuide in 2025 to build government knowledge in Germany as a structured data product.

His background is in digital strategy and political communication. At AmtsGuide, he combines AI-powered data processing with consistent human quality assurance.

Andreas is available for interviews, background conversations and panel discussions on government digitization, AI in public communication and open government data.

No-stopping zone calculator: The lead time calculator calculates how much lead time users need to apply for a no-stopping zone permit. The tool considers city, federal state and local deadlines and provides an immediately usable recommendation. The calculator is free and requires no registration.

City comparison: AmtsGuide enables direct comparison of government processes between cities. Costs, deadlines, responsibilities and requirements are presented side by side in a structured format.

Provider directory: For topics like no-stopping zones, AmtsGuide lists verified service providers by city, with direct contact options.
