# Operational Knowledge Audit v0 — Binky Hedgehog GmbH
|
||||
|
||||
> Status: v0 findings — 2026-07-16. First dogfood run of the flagship offer on
|
||||
> the company itself (BINKY-WP-0002-T02). Evidence sources: founder email to
|
||||
> prospective accountant 2026-07-06 (`~/2binky/260706a-mandatsanfrageIngaBohle/`),
|
||||
> JA 2024 report PDF (same folder), `~/2binky/archiv/`, workstation repo
|
||||
> inventory, this repo's canon. Confidence: founder-stated facts, not yet
|
||||
> verified against registry/bank records.
|
||||
|
||||
## Findings by area
|
||||
|
||||
### Legal & registry
|
||||
- GmbH founded 2019 as employment alternative; Bernd Worsch is sole
|
||||
shareholder (100%) and Geschäftsführer, **no GF salary, no employees**.
|
||||
- Rename to "Operational Knowledge GmbH" contemplated, explicitly not yet
|
||||
ripe (matches SuccessMilestones S9 gate).
|
||||
- **Unknown / to verify:** Handelsregister entry details, registered address,
|
||||
Unternehmensgegenstand text, location of articles of association.
|
||||
|
||||
### Tax & accounting
|
||||
- Previous Steuerberater: Herr Weglarzy, FSW Huth Termin Weglarzy & Partner
|
||||
StBG mbB, Landwehrstr. 54, 64293 Darmstadt. **Mandate ended after JA 2024**
|
||||
(small mandate, low activity). He agreed to support a DATEV DUO transfer.
|
||||
- **Jahresabschluss 2024: done** (report PDF on file). JA 2023 documents
|
||||
archived (2026-03-25 folder).
|
||||
- **No active StB mandate → JA 2025 and ongoing filings uncovered.** This is
|
||||
the single most material compliance gap found.
|
||||
- New StB candidate: Inga Bohle-Horsmann (Steuerberaterin, Markt 21,
|
||||
18273 Güstrow, horsmann@bohle-horsmann.de, 03843-72110). Inquiry email sent
|
||||
2026-07-06; she is on vacation until **end of July 2026** — follow up early
|
||||
August.
|
||||
- Bookkeeping lives in DATEV Unternehmen Online (DUO), licensed via the old
|
||||
StB. Receipt filing into DUO Belegablage is self-described as sloppy —
|
||||
**backlog catch-up needed**; DUO access continuity depends on mandate
|
||||
transition.
|
||||
- No separate ERP/DMS (fine at this scale; also a dogfood opportunity).
|
||||
|
||||
### Banking & finance
|
||||
- Business account: **Qonto** — active, perceived as expensive for current
|
||||
usage. Cost review worthwhile; account changes are Red lane.
|
||||
- Cost base: co-working desk in Darmstadt (Binect; meeting-room billing
|
||||
evidence 2026-03), StB fees, Qonto fees, base corporate costs.
|
||||
- Revenue history: occasional consulting earlier; **last two years only
|
||||
self-commissioned development** — GmbH invoiced Bernd privately, roughly
|
||||
covering costs. Tax treatment of this pattern should be sanity-checked with
|
||||
the new StB.
|
||||
- Revenue path in build: web platform/app with paid monthly subscriptions via
|
||||
**Stripe**; one live (own) subscription since ~2025 proves the pipeline.
|
||||
- No consolidated cash/runway view yet (Finance Steward loop not running).
|
||||
|
||||
### Digital presence
|
||||
- Company email runs on the founder's private gmail — no own-domain email.
|
||||
- Domain inventory not yet done; primary company domain undecided
|
||||
(ok.com is the S12 north star, not a near-term option).
|
||||
- No company website.
|
||||
|
||||
### Contracts, IP, repos
|
||||
- ~130 repos on the workstation spanning the four pillars; classification is
|
||||
T03 of the current workplan.
|
||||
- **IP ownership GmbH vs. Bernd privately is unclarified** (RISK-002
|
||||
confirmed, not new). Self-billed "Eigenentwicklung" invoices suggest some
|
||||
development was formally commissioned — the paper trail should be collected
|
||||
as IP evidence.
|
||||
- No known external contracts or obligations beyond desk, Qonto, DATEV/StB,
|
||||
Stripe.
|
||||
|
||||
## Verdict
|
||||
|
||||
The company is administratively simpler and cleaner than RISK-001 feared:
|
||||
filings are current through JA 2024, banking and bookkeeping exist. The
|
||||
reactivation-critical gaps are (1) no active accountant mandate, (2) DUO
|
||||
receipt backlog + license transition, (3) IP ownership evidence, (4) no
|
||||
own-domain digital presence. All four are queued.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reusable audit template (v0)
|
||||

||||
