Pre-termination defensibility review for German employers · Verfahrenscheck by ARAM Algorithm
Know if the Kündigung holds — before it goes out.
Verfahrenscheck runs the termination file against the eight statutory gates German courts test it on. Each gate passes, fails, or flags a gap — silence is never a pass. The gap is the finding.
One live matter, de-identified locally, documented read in 72 hours. Deterministic engine on your device — AI is used at design time only, never on a client matter.

The output is not “here is the answer.” The output is here is what is defensible — a per-finding map of evidence, gate, and BAG warrant. Inspectable end to end.
Each gate is anchored to a statutory provision or established authority. Where authority cannot be verified, the gate flags the limitation rather than asserting certainty. Same methodology, every matter, every manager, every site.

The challenge is not generating recommendations. The challenge is defending decisions.
The engine that reviews a matter is deterministic infrastructure, not a language model. Replay equivalence — same record, same verdict, today and in five years — is the property the audit trail rests on.
Deterministic runtime
No probabilistic step
The same record always produces the same reconstruction. Fail-closed gates, no narrative, no scoring softening the verdict.
AI offline only
No runtime LLM
AI is used at design time only — to interpret BAG case law into a tested, hash-locked ruleset. AI never runs on a client matter.
Local · on-device
Windows desktop, fully offline
The deterministic engine runs on the user's own hardware. No cloud inference. Raw documents never leave the device.
Human-in-the-loop
Indeterminates route to a human
The system identifies what requires professional judgement and routes it to a human; the indeterminate is never resolved automatically.
What we check. What we don't.
We test whether a dismissal will hold up procedurally — not how a judge will feel about it. Every boundary below is deliberate, and every gap is named.
What we check
Germany · 8 checkpoints · 4 dismissal types
26 procedural checks across every German dismissal route — conduct, health, redundancy, and extraordinary. Covers the core employment, co-determination, anti-discrimination, disability, data-protection, and parental-leave statutes. Cross-border cases are out of scope.
What we don't model
Reputational cost · two niche clauses · judge temperament
We don't estimate reputational cost. We don't score retaliation claims (§612a) or business-transfer protections (§613a), and we don't predict how a specific chamber will rule. Back-pay and severance estimates are on our roadmap. Every gap is listed openly — nothing is quietly skipped.
What we flag, not score
The 3-week filing deadline · good-faith defences
The 3-week deadline to challenge a dismissal (§4 KSchG), and good-faith / fairness arguments (§242, §138 BGB), need human judgement. We surface them as notes for your lawyer — we don't pass or fail them on our own.
Not legal advice
We stop where your lawyer starts
This is a procedural completeness review, not a legal opinion. When you need binding advice, a named specialist employment lawyer (Fachanwalt) takes it from there — on a separate engagement.
