03 — Fill in

Fill it in with the assistant

§02The application assistant

Not just look it up. Get it filled in.

Other portals show you that a form exists. Zulano fills it in with you — in plain language, field by field, with your details. And not only official forms: any form can be prepared this way, including your own.

  • Asks in everyday language and puts your answers in the right form fields.
  • Tells you upfront which documents you need.
  • Remembers your details in your file cabinet — enter once, use again and again.
  • Explains every field with its legal basis — and says so when there isn't one.
Which application would you like to submit?
I need a subsidy for renovating my bathroom.
That's an application for home adaptation measures under § 40 (4) SGB XI. Your long-term care insurance fund is responsible. I'll need your care level for that — do you have it at hand?

Assistant is typing…

§03Who it's for

Private or business — both live in the same catalogue.

Most portals split by audience and make you choose up front. We don't. You search for what you need — the catalogue shows you who each service applies to. You can still filter there at any time.

For citizens

From housing benefit to your passport: every service that affects you as a private individual.

Wohngeld · Elterngeld · Ummeldung · Führerschein · BAföG · Reisepass

For businesses

From founding to funding: everything your business needs to settle with the authorities.

What you need depends on which procedures come up at your organisation and how often. The prices below are entry points — we'll work out the exact scope in a call.

§07Pricing

What an application costs.

The price depends on the effort involved — not on the number of users. What you see here are entry prices; the exact amount depends on the procedure.

01

Citizens

€5 – 15per application

Most services are free. Where an application involves more work, a small flat fee applies — between five and fifteen euros, depending on scope.

  • Catalogue and eligibility checks free of charge
  • No subscription, no base fee
  • You pay only once the application is complete
02

Businesses

from €150per application

Permits, approvals, funding applications. The price depends on scope and procedure. Bundles and monthly plans are available for multiple or recurring applications.

  • Single application or bundle
  • Monthly plans for recurring procedures
  • Priced by effort, not by number of users
03
