Levora
How the price for Levora is put together
The structure is on this page, so you know what you are getting into before the conversation. The amounts follow once they hold for a year.
Pricing
What Levora costs
A company base plus field users. No setup fee, no surcharge for the XRechnung export, no charge for getting your own data back out.
The amounts are not on this page yet.
The structure is settled – a company base plus field users, no setup fee, no per-head price. The figures themselves we release only once they hold for a year; a pricing page that reads differently three months later is worse than one that names no figure yet. Until then we give you the price in the conversation – in full, not as a “from”.

Why not per head
The obvious route would be an amount per user. It has a practical drawback: a firm with twelve people immediately works out “twelve times X” in their head and compares the result with providers who bill a company flat. It is a different calculation – but the comparison happens anyway, and it happens in the second someone reads the pricing page.
The second and more important reason: a per-head price punishes exactly the behaviour that makes the software useful in the first place. If every additional person on site costs money, the Zettel stay in the glove compartment and get typed up by one person in the evening.
Hence: one base per company, with the office seats inside it, and a small amount per field user – per person who captures Zettel outside, takes measurements or writes in the site diary.
No setup fee
Some providers charge four-figure amounts for setup and training. We do not, and there is nothing noble about it: at a firm of this size, setup is a matter of hours, not weeks. Master data, bills of quantities, a few templates. Charging for that would mean charging for our own clumsiness.
What the price does not include
Nothing that surprises you later – but for completeness: the Zettel recognition has a monthly quota. It is generously set and is meant to catch abuse, not to slow down the firm that bills a lot. Deriving it from the compute cost would be dishonest – that cost runs to cents per Zettel page.

This counts data-entry time only. What a changeover otherwise costs – training, old data, the first weeks running two methods side by side – is not in here and belongs in the decision.

Questions
What gets asked most
What does Levora cost for a firm with ten employees?
That depends on how many of them work outside and capture Zettel. The base is billed per company and includes the office seats; each field user is added individually. We name the concrete amount in full during the conversation – not as a “from”.
Is there a setup fee?
No. Neither for the setup nor for taking over your master data and bills of quantities.
How long does the contract run?
Twelve months, terminable with three months’ notice to the end of the term. No automatic increase on renewal.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
You take it with you. The full data export – master data, bills of quantities, measurements, invoices – is available as CSV and GAEB, and at any time during the term, not just at the end. For the tax audit there is additionally the GoBD export under the Z3 procedure. There is no fee for it and no application.
Is the Zettel recognition limited?
There is a monthly quota. It is meant to catch abuse and is set so that a firm billing normally does not notice it. If it is exceeded, we tell you before anything is charged.
Why are there no figures here yet?
Because a pricing page that looks different after three months is worse than one that names no figure yet. The structure is settled and will not change; the amounts we release once they hold for a year.
Is VAT added to the prices?
No. dev2soft is a small business under § 19 of the German VAT Act, so no VAT is charged. Nothing is added on top of the stated amount – what you pay is exactly that amount.
We are not based in Germany. Can we still buy Levora?
Technically yes, but it would rarely make sense: Levora is built around German public procurement – GAEB, REB 23.003, XRechnung with a Leitweg-ID, the VOB/B site diary. If you do not invoice German clients, most of the product is not doing anything for you.
