DokuMe

What DokuMe does

DokuMe GmbH is a Cologne-based SaaS company founded in 2013 that provides a modular digital ecosystem for member management, communication, event administration, and resource booking across sports federations, clubs, educational institutions, non-profits, and small-to-medium enterprises. The platform is delivered via web and native iOS/Android apps, organized around sub-brands such as Vedera/VerbandPlus/FederationPlus (federation software), PitHubs/VereinPlus (club software), TuMag (tournament management), Dollamur (sports mats), a Real Estate Software line, an Employee App, and a Funding Portal. Underlying technology includes a modular SaaS architecture, GDPR-compliant German hosting, an ISO 27001-aligned stack, and the LAIA custom multi-agent AI assistant — deployed for the International Luge Federation (FIL) as the first official AI assistant at the 2026 Olympic Winter Games.

The company generates revenue through SaaS platform subscriptions (monthly base fees plus per-module and per-user fees), professional services for setup/customization/training, and premium support. Pricing is largely quote-based; the only disclosed product pricing is TUMAG at €100 per club per year plus €1 per athlete. Distribution is via direct enterprise sales (Request Demo CTAs), white-label/OEM arrangements, and self-serve modular onboarding. Notable customers include the International Luge Federation (FIL), Ernsting's family, the German Judo Federation (DJB), Sports Foundation NRW, and Dollamur, with 500k+ active users and 20+ organizations on the platform.

DokuMe is a privately held, founder/management-owned company led by Managing Directors Nicki Graczyk and Christoph Schnettler, with a recently appointed Chief Business Development Officer (Jonathan Ott). The firm is small (1-10 employees), operates without disclosed external funding, and is actively expanding its product surface (Real Estate App update Jan 2025; FAQ Center Mar 2024) and vertical reach beyond its sports-club origins.

Broad incumbents

• monday.com: Public, large-scale modular work management platform with configurable boards, automations, and integrations. Competes with DokuMe's business/enterprise modules (CRM, project management, document workflows) as a broad incumbent alternative.
• SportsEngine: Established US sports management platform (NBC Sports-owned) covering registration, league operations, and websites for national governing bodies and youth sports. Operates at much larger scale than DokuMe but in an overlapping product category.
• HubSpot: Public CRM and customer platform with modular sales, marketing, service, and CMS hubs that overlap with DokuMe's CRM, sales, customer portal, and document management modules; competes for the same European SMB/enterprise buyer.
• Bitrix24: Modular all-in-one business platform offering CRM, project management, communication, and document management — overlapping with DokuMe's business/enterprise product set; strong in European SMB and association segments.
• WildApricot: Mature association management SaaS serving member-based organizations globally with member database, events, payments, and website modules. Comparable in target customer and core modules to DokuMe's organization/administration vertical.

Direct peers

• SportMember: Danish SaaS for sports club management with member administration, scheduling, and communication modules; serves European clubs similarly to PitHubs and is a credible substitute in adjacent DACH markets.
• Vereinsplaner: German club and association management SaaS targeting the same Vereins/Verband buyer as DokuMe with comparable member, fee, and event functionality; a head-to-head competitor in the German SMB association market.
• TeamSnap: US-based sports team management platform used by clubs and federations worldwide for scheduling, rosters, communication, and payments. Comparable to DokuMe's sports club and federation modules, though with broader consumer-side adoption.
• ClubDesk: Swiss-headquartered SaaS for managing clubs, associations, and member organizations across Europe. Most direct functional peer to DokuMe's PitHubs/VereinPlus club management offering, serving the same German-speaking SMB and association customer base.

Emerging players

• BAND: Group communication and team management app widely used by sports clubs and small organizations, particularly in Europe and Asia. Overlaps with DokuMe's member/team communication, scheduling, and event features, especially in grassroots club use cases.
