Transparent pricing without hidden costs
Traditional CCMS systems often cost five to six-figure amounts – plus training, maintenance and consulting. DokuTech.app offers comparable core features at a fraction of the price. Here we explain why this is possible and what exactly is included.
No sales team, no overhead
DokuTech.app is operated directly by the developer. No sales commissions, no trade fair costs, no bloated administrative apparatus. The savings are passed directly to you.
Cloud-native architecture
The application runs entirely in the cloud. No local installation, no server maintenance, no individual configuration. This significantly reduces operating costs.
Fair flat rate instead of user licences
500 CHF/EUR per year per company – whether you have 2 or 20 editors. No user limits, no volume restrictions, no hidden additional costs.
Everything included
Included in the price: all features, all updates, AI translation in 4 languages, PDF export with corporate design, text modules, customer portal, email dispatch and email support.
Deliberately not included: individual customisations, on-site training and migration services. These can be arranged separately if needed.

DokuTech.app
The Founder Behind DokuTech.app
For over 25 years, I have worked in industry – as a machine builder, technical writer and software developer. I know the challenges of technical documentation first-hand: confusing Word documents, missing standard structures, tedious translation processes and expensive CCMS systems that are hardly affordable for SMEs.
I developed DokuTech.app because I wanted a solution I would have liked to have myself: an editorial system that makes standards-oriented operating manuals simple – without six-figure investments, without months-long implementation projects and without an IT department.
My experience in mechanical engineering, technical writing and software development flows directly into product development. Every feature in DokuTech.app solves a concrete problem I have experienced in practice.
