Voice reporting
Voice intake. Zero audio liability.
Let reporters speak instead of typing — without ever creating a recording your organization has to retain. The audio is transcribed on their device and deleted the moment the text is ready.
- Audio never uploaded — transcribed on the reporter's device
- Audio file deleted the instant transcription completes
- No recordings, no biometric data, no audio to retain
Recording — 0:14
Audio stays in your browser
Transcript (on-device)
I noticed the manager was altering vendor invoices before submitting them to finance. It's been happening for at least two months across three different suppliers…
Audio deleted — only the transcript is sent.
Two-way messages
Investigate without compromising anonymity.
Your case workers need context to resolve them — but the reporter must stay anonymous. Ashio's two-way channel keeps the conversation open without ever exposing identity.
- End-to-end encrypted reply threads
- Reporter identity never leaves their device
- Status updates synced to your audit-ready case file

Comparison
How Ashio compares to basic reporting tools.
Most organizations start with what they already have. Here's the difference.
Before Ashio
Email, shared inboxes, spreadsheets
The tools many companies patch together — and why they fall short.
- No guaranteed anonymity: email headers, IP logs, and server access expose identities
- No audit trail: scattered threads and spreadsheets can't prove compliance
- Manual deadlines: scattered across inboxes and calendars, easy to miss
With Ashio
Ashio
Purpose-built for whistleblowing. Compliant by design.
- True anonymity: no IPs, no cookies, no fingerprinting, no identifying data
- Immutable audit trail: every action timestamped, exportable in one click
- Deadlines at a glance: pending acknowledgments and legal windows, always in view
Security architecture
End-to-end encrypted reports.
We can't read your reports — and neither can anyone else you haven't explicitly invited.
Encrypts on submit
A fresh AES-256-GCM key is generated and wrapped for each recipient using P-256 ECDH — no shared secret.
Stores ciphertext
We hold encrypted blobs. No key material lives here — no path to plaintext, even with full server access.
Unwraps and decrypts
Each handler unwraps their copy of the key. Messages are verified with ECDSA P-256 signatures.
