Small solutions can change a lot
A clear procedure, an understandable piece of information or a dependable connection can noticeably lighten someone's day.
Theobase GmbH
Digital tools that people really reach.
Theobase builds understandable web apps and digital tools for everyday life, community, education and social ideas. Clear in purpose, careful with data, and close to the people they are made for.
Made for people A digital tool starts with a real need in someone's day.
Clear and understandable Fewer hurdles, calmer steps, and a benefit you can see straight away.
Responsible Built to collect little, checked carefully, and done in a way you can follow.
Open to good ideas Social initiatives and passion projects are expressly welcome.
Is there a recurring procedure that costs you time for no good reason? Theobase builds a lean digital solution for it — with a clear scope, costs you can follow, and a tool that actually works in everyday use.

Projects
What is being built at Theobase
Projects that connect people, take the weight out of recurring work, and give some orientation in everyday life — from the neighbourhood to the classroom.
- QuartierApp / nachbar·io Helps neighbours stay in touch and support each other in everyday life. Who notices when someone quietly slips out of view?
Older people · relatives · neighbourhoods Closed pilot Supporting the pilot families; it goes public only once the pilot holds up. - Meldefein Brings guest registration, visitor's tax and a digital guest guide together for holiday flats. Recurring obligatory work eats time, even though the procedure is perfectly clear.
Holiday-flat hosts Officially connected, invitation-only start Supporting the first hosts personally; opening to everyone once real arrivals run through cleanly day to day. - TeacherOps Two halves: a cockpit for the teacher and a practice app for their students. Too many small tasks take time away from teaching and from people.
Teachers and small education teams Early pilot Trying the student app with a real learning group before opening it to others. - Nelrik Learning under the northern lights: a calm learning world for children aged 6 to 10 — no accounts, no tracking, works offline. Children should be allowed to practise without their data ending up in a cloud.
Families · primary school, ages 6–10 In development — the first pieces are in place Adding the first learning content; launching as a web app and an iOS app for families. - Phone assistant Answers calls when nobody can pick up — and sends a finished call-back note. For a small business, a missed call is often a lost job. Small businesses · sole traders Live in our own business — you can call it Gathering experience in our own business first. For other businesses only once the data-processing question is settled.
The point is not the technology but what it makes possible for people: more participation, less burden, and understandable support at the right moment.
Commissioned work too
Is there a procedure that costs you time for no good reason?
Theobase does not only build its own products. It also develops individual digital solutions for small companies and organisations — from the first idea to a tool you can actually work with. Not an off-the-shelf kit, but a tool for exactly your procedure.
- First we work out what really costs time today
- The smallest useful step comes before the big project
- Built on minimal data, with running costs settled beforehand
How it works
From the first conversation to a tool you can use
No quote out of thin air, and no invoice that turns out bigger than expected. Four steps, each with a clear result.
-
Conversation
You describe the procedure that costs you time. I keep asking until I have understood it. It costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
-
Proposal with a fixed price
You get it in writing: what will be built, what it costs, and what is deliberately not included. Nothing starts before you agree.
-
The smallest useful step
What gets built first is the piece that takes work off your hands right away — not the whole vision. That way you see something usable early and can steer while steering is still easy.
-
Handover
You get the tool, the access and an explanation in plain language. Whatever it takes to keep running is settled beforehand.
What it costs
You get a fixed price before we start — for a clearly described scope. No timesheet, and no invoice that turns out bigger than expected.
Running costs for hosting and services are named beforehand and kept separate from that price. You know what you will be paying later before you say yes.
How long it takes depends too much on the project to put a number here. It is in the proposal — and then it holds.
Describe your procedureA good digital tool does not set out to impress with technology. It makes life a little lighter.
How we work
How a good idea turns into something helpful
Theobase starts from a real need, deliberately keeps things lean, and develops them further with the people who will use them.
- 01
Understand the everyday first
It does not start with a list of features but with a simple question: what weighs on people today, and what would genuinely help them?
- 02
Design one clear, lean solution
Out of the need comes a manageable path: as little complexity as possible and exactly as much technology as necessary.
- 03
Check together what really helps
Early feedback shows what holds. Only once something is understandable, dependable and useful does it take the next step.
Effect
Technology is allowed to feel like relief.
Theobase concentrates on projects that make something noticeably better day to day: less paperwork, more orientation, stronger community, and more time for people.
Social ideas deserve good technology
Projects without a big stage should be built just as professionally, just as accessibly, and with the same care.
About Theobase
Practice turned into digital relief.
Behind Theobase GmbH stands Thomas Theobald — technician, practitioner and digital product developer. His long experience in technical field service shapes what the company expects of itself: digital tools must be understandable, dependable and genuinely usable in everyday work.
Out in the field you see what never makes it into a presentation: lists kept twice over, notes that get typed up later, the same questions asked again and again. Small points of friction that cost time every day — and that at some point nobody questions any more.
That is exactly where Theobase starts. Every project begins with a problem somebody actually has, not with a technology that happens to be interesting. Only once the procedure is understood does the building begin.
The focus is on concrete challenges that often get overlooked — recurring work, missing orientation, or the wish to connect people with each other more easily.
Particularly important are projects that strengthen community, make participation easier, or give small organisations and businesses room for what matters. That is what technology should be there for.

Transparency
Technology should earn trust.
Theobase says openly which technology a digital tool uses and what happens to data. The FAQ assistant on this page is a demonstration and does not connect to any AI service.
Where AI is used, it is labelled clearly and understandably.
Real operation only starts once processing, contracts, labelling and costs have been checked carefully.

Is the AI on this page live yet?
No. The assistant shows prepared answers and does not connect to an AI service. Real operation only starts after a careful review.

Can I commission Theobase to build a solution of my own?
Yes. Alongside its own products, Theobase develops individual solutions for small companies and organisations — social initiatives, neighbourhoods, associations and education teams just as much as businesses with a recurring procedure that should get easier.
