EurOwiG

What EurOwiG does

EurOwiG GmbH is a German vertical-market software vendor headquartered in Thierhaupten, founded in 1984 by Anton Wagner in Augsburg as Softwarehaus A. Wagner. The company develops specialized software exclusively for German municipal regulatory authorities (Ordnungsämter) and currently serves more than 600 cities and municipalities across all German federal states except Hamburg and Bremen. Its solutions address the full lifecycle of traffic violations (stationary and moving), general administrative offenses, public safety and order case management, mobile field data capture, and citizen-facing eGovernment interactions.

The product portfolio centers on three desktop applications — EurOwiG Verkehrs-OWi (traffic violations), EurOwiG Allgemeine OWi (general administrative offenses with 4,500+ integrated legal building blocks from the inreo Verlag partnership), and EurOwiG Sicherheit und Ordnung (SiO) as a modular case management hub — extended by the Anhörung Online eGovernment portal for online citizen hearings, native iOS and Android Mobile Smart apps with offline field data capture and media-break-free synchronization, the cross-platform SiO WebApp for field-office task management, and a Postmanagement module for digital mail handling. The suite integrates with the Kraftfahrtbundesamt and Fahrerlaubnisregister for vehicle and driver lookups, central fine offices, traffic monitoring pre-systems, document management systems, municipal financial systems, mobile parking providers, and GiroCode payment channels. Hosting is delivered through an ISO 27001 and BSI-certified partner infrastructure.

EurOwiG operates a sales-led, event-driven go-to-market model targeting German municipal buyers through direct engagement and regular trade show presence at GPEC digital, Bundeskongress Kommunale Ordnung, KommDIGITALE, and Governikus Jahrestagung, supported by DATABUND industry-association membership. Revenue is generated through a mix of one-time software licensing, recurring subscription and maintenance for legal statute updates and mobile apps, and professional services for phone, email, and TeamViewer-based remote support. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is family-controlled, with founder Anton Wagner continuing as CEO alongside Gabriela Wagner, has transitioned from a stock corporation (AG) back to a limited liability company (GmbH), and has been entirely bootstrapped with no external funding rounds or disclosed investors.
