Public administrations in Germany are dependent on expensive, closed business intelligence software. Costs continue to rise, while transparency and technological independence suffer.

Our coasti-initiative is the answer: an open source BI platform for lasting cost reductions and true digital sovereignty.

Find out more about coasti - and become part of this important initiative as a user, technical partner or sponsor.


Your digital independence starts here

Many local authorities rely on systems that are expensive, non-transparent and externally controlled. coasti is fundamentally changing this: an open source BI platform for modern administrative management - developed by local authorities, for local authorities. The goal is digital sovereignty: away from international software companies and towards full control over data, costs and technology.


Your data, your control, your success

The platform makes management control simple, secure and affordable:

  • No license costs, just fair operating costs
  • 100 % Datenhoheit in Deutschland
  • Compatible with SAP, H&H, Infoma, LÄMMkom LISSA, Prosoz and many more.
  • Intelligent dashboards and ready-made analysis and reporting solutions for budgeting, social planning & more
  • Customizable and expandable for individual needs

How coasti works

A look under the surface: coasti uses state-of-the-art technology based on open source (Apache Superset, PostgreSQL, Linux) - securely hosted in certified German data centers.

The core modules:

01
'coasti' as a central data and reporting platform
02
Key performance indicators in ready-made reporting portals
03
Connectors to specialist procedures + data sources 'on premise'
04
Harmony of open source software, including Apache Superset, PostgreSQL, Linux
05
Hosting in a certified data center in Germany

Around ten thousand municipalities are waiting for digitalisation. Let's talk about it

Across Germany, local authorities are still working with outdated solutions such as Excel & Co. Now, for the first time, coasti offers a cost-effective, open alternative based on practical experience: coasti is developed with local authorities and is made for local authorities.

A strong community that gets better together.
