Notisa · 2025

Local Germany, on your calendar.

Tax dates, holidays, welfare windows, school terms — Notisa scrapes the .de sources for your PLZ and writes them into your calendar before any deadline expires.

CHAPTER 01 · LOCALE

One PLZ, your whole local calendar.

Pick a Bundesland and a postal code — or tap «use my location» and let GPS resolve it. From that one fact, Notisa decides which Berlin trash days, Bavarian school holidays, or Mitte welfare deadlines belong on your home screen.

Two pickers — state → PLZ — and the entire calendar reshapes around you. Settings also carry household type (local resident or new arrival), reminder lead-time, and per-category toggles, so the feed stays in your noise band, not the city's.

Locale isn't decoration here — it is the model. Two neighbours one PLZ apart in Berlin can have different trash pickup days and different school holiday windows; Notisa treats those differences as first-class.

CHAPTER 02 · AI CONCIERGE

Ask in plain language, land on your calendar.

An on-device GovHome assistant. Ask for school holidays in Berlin, family-allowance deadlines, or this week's community events — Notisa returns curated cards, and one confirm writes them into iOS Calendar with a deadline-aware reminder.

The conversation is the index. Categories surface as chips — 垃圾 · 假期 · 学校 · 家庭 · 移民 · 税务 — and the assistant answers each in cards with a single «Select» action. Selection becomes calendar event; no app-hopping, no copy-paste.

Lead-time follows the deadline, not the clock — a tax filing gets a different reminder cadence than a one-day public holiday. The assistant carries that logic so the user doesn't have to.

LIVE SOURCE SCRAPING
CHAPTER 03 · LIVE SOURCES

Direct from the .de source, auto-translated.

Every card is scraped from a primary .de source — feiertage.net, the Bundeszentralamt, the per-state portals — and rendered in Auto / DE / EN / 中文 on the fly. The original link is always one tap away. QUELLE / SOURCE

Translation happens at read-time, not at scrape-time. The card stores the German original and a translation pair; switching language is instant, and the source link goes to the .de page exactly as the agency published it — QUELLE stays sovereign.

Stale data is the failure mode here, not bad UI. Notisa re-pulls each source on a per-source cadence — a weekly tax bulletin re-pulls weekly; a one-off Tagesordnung re-pulls the morning of — so the calendar reflects what's actually live.

Bureaucracy never went away — it just got out-of-band. An app that reads the § the way a German civil servant would, and pushes it to your calendar before it bites, is the quietest kind of leverage immigrants have ever had.
