What Datenbrücke does

Datenbrücke turns DATEV accounting data into ready-made controlling for midsize companies, tax advisors and private equity owners. It combines reports, planning, Excel and Power BI feeds with an AI chat that answers questions from the company's own figures.

  • AI chat answers plain-language questions from the company's own DATEV figures
  • Each answer shows the path to the underlying numbers
  • AI connector brings DATEV data into Claude, and via Excel into ChatGPT

Datenbrücke is operated by CSBERG GmbH in Hamburg and is built entirely on DATEV data, the standard system of German tax advisors. Starting price: from €39 per month.

Before you switch: Read the published data processing agreement, which lists Anthropic as a subprocessor for AI features, and check the transfer terms. Estimate how many AI questions your team will ask, since quotas range from 10 to 50 per month depending on the plan. Agree the DATEV data access with your tax advisor, and note that the tool is meant for businesses only.
