Why not build it yourself?
Building it in-house is technically possible, but rarely sensible.
No certification or process overhead
The regulatory effort around social-insurance data exchange is significant. We carry that burden, not your development team.
Faster time to market
Turn instant notifications into a product feature in weeks instead of months. Integration instead of infrastructure work.
Increase product value without regulatory complexity
Your customers get a native instant-notification function directly in the system they already use, without you operating the reporting backend yourself.
For systems with people processes
If employees are created, managed, or activated digitally,
instant notifications belong in that same workflow.
HR software
Create employees and trigger the instant notification automatically, with no system switching and no extra manual step.
Time tracking
Shift starts → instant notification is triggered directly. Ideal for operations with high staff turnover.
ERP / HR software
Use existing HR master data directly, while the API handles the reporting automatically in the background.
Industry solutions
Hospitality, care, retail, logistics: vertical software can embed the reporting obligation directly into day-to-day operations.
Franchise systems
Central API setup, consistent process across all locations, and compliance without coordination overhead at headquarters.
Payroll & accounting software
Offer instant notifications and eAU as a native function without your own DRV connection or certification workload.
Legally compliant transmission
Technically clean. Procedurally safeguarded.
Transmission through certified infrastructure in the social-insurance data exchange ecosystem
Direct forwarding to the German Pension Insurance (DRV)
Processing according to DEUEV requirements
Official transmission records as PDF and/or structured response data
Operated in Germany · GDPR-compliant processing
Certified data transmission workflows without building your own infrastructure
Two processes. One interface.
Instant notification
Trigger instant notifications via API
Automatically when a new employee is created
Direct transmission to the DRV
PDF confirmation returned directly in the response
No manual step outside your system
eAU
Integrate eAU retrieval via API
Retrieve the electronic sick note directly from the health insurer
Return the result directly into your system
No manual follow-up work
Legally compliant digital processing
Manual reporting breaks digital systems
The instant notification must be submitted before work begins, without exception.
Media breaks
Mandatory reports outside the system create media breaks, delays, and unnecessary manual steps.
Manual inputs
Data that already exists in the system gets typed in somewhere else again by hand.
Faulty transmissions
Typos and missing fields lead to rejected or incorrect reports.
Lost time during hiring
Every new hire requires a separate manual reporting step.
Missing automation
Existing HR processes are not linked to statutory reporting obligations.
How the integration works
Four steps from data record to confirmed submission.
1
Data handoff from your system
Structured delivery of reporting data via defined integration logic, directly from your existing HR workflow and without manual intermediate steps.
2
Verification & validation
Technical and formal plausibility checks of the submitted data. Errors are detected before the report is transmitted, with no rework required on your side.
3
Transmission into the social insurance systems
Forwarding through certified data transmission processes to the responsible authorities. No media break and no manual intervention.
4
Response & proof
Status, technical feedback, and the official transmission proof flow directly back into your system as PDF and/or structured data.
Results in the format your system needs
The output can be configured to match how it should be processed in the target system.
Report confirmation as a file
Status code
Machine-readable return value
JSON
Structured response for your system
Webhook
Automatic notification on status changes
Easy to integrate
Complete documentation
Technical documentation, parameters, and return values are provided after request.
Token / API key
Access via a secure token-based authentication mechanism.
Fast implementation
Connect it to your existing system without building your own transmission infrastructure.
Single and batch processes
Suitable for individual requests as well as automated batch workflows.
Typical use cases
Create employee → report instantly
An employee is created in the HR system and the instant notification is triggered automatically. No separate step.
Sick leave → retrieve eAU directly
Sick leave is recorded in the system and the eAU is automatically fetched from the health insurer and returned.
Franchise / multi-location
A consistent reporting process across all locations, automated and standardized.
High turnover with no back-office effort
Industries with frequent staff changes process reports fully automatically without manual intervention.
Request technical integration
No public playground setup.
We will review together whether and how the integration makes sense for your use case.
