What moves the price
Per-employee billing, per-report fees and setup projects. None of the three applies here, which is why the figure stays the same at 30 employees and at 3,000.

What's included
- Anonymous intake workflows — Reporters send what happened without an account — no IP logging, no cookies, no trace back to them.
- Secure two-way communication with whistleblowers — Ask follow-up questions and reply to theirs through the reporter's private link — still anonymous.
- Verbal intake via speech-to-text — Reporters can speak instead of typing — the audio is transcribed on their device and never stored.
- Structured case management — One case file per report: status, owner and every note in one place, from received to resolved.
- Deadline monitoring — The 7-day acknowledgment and 3-month feedback deadlines stay in view, not buried in a calendar.
- Unlimited team members — Invite as many colleagues as you need — admin and case-worker roles keep settings separate from casework.
- Notification management — Choose what lands in your inbox: every new report, or only the cases assigned to you.
- Audit-ready logging — Every action is timestamped in an immutable log you can hand straight to an auditor.
- Adjustable branding — Your logo and organization name on the reporting form — employees see their employer, not a generic tool.
- Multi-language (18 languages) — Employees report in their own language; your team works in theirs.

Market prices
What does whistleblowing software cost in the EU?
A self-service channel that covers the whole organization costs €20–30 a month; Ashio is 23 € a month billed yearly (29 € monthly). Enterprise platforms cost several hundred a month instead — you are buying case management, a services team and a procurement process, not just a channel.
What you can check for free first
The trial: 14 days, no card, no sales call. The channel can be live before you decide anything, so you can compare it against a quote you already have.
What to compare, not just the number
The billing model: flat per organization, per seat, per case, or quote-only. The first stays predictable; the other three grow with headcount, which is why two monthly prices that look similar can diverge by a factor of five.
FAQ
Pricing questions
How much does Ashio cost?+
€29 per month on the monthly plan, or €23 per month when you pay yearly. The price is flat for your whole organization — no setup fees and no per-report charges.
Is the price per employee?+
No. You pay one flat price per organization, whatever the number of team members or incoming reports. That is why our pricing stays predictable, while vendors that bill per employee or per case get more expensive as you grow.
What is included in the price?+
Anonymous intake workflows, secure two-way communication with whistleblowers, structured case management, deadline monitoring, unlimited team members, audit-ready logging, adjustable branding, verbal intake via speech-to-text and a multi-language channel.
How does the free trial work?+
You get 14 days free, no credit card required. The channel is live in under 10 minutes: register, name your organization and share the link. If it is not for you, simply stop using it.
Is there a setup fee or an implementation project?+
No. Ashio is self-service: there is no onboarding project, no consulting day and no minimum term beyond the billing period you choose.
Where is my data stored?+
In ISO 27001-certified data centers in Switzerland, with encryption and GDPR compliance. Only your case workers can access reports.
Is a whistleblowing channel mandatory for my organization?+
Under EU Directive 2019/1937, organizations with 50 or more employees — and companies in certain sectors regardless of size — must provide an internal reporting channel. Many smaller organizations set one up voluntarily, because the cost is low and it protects them either way.
How much does whistleblowing software cost for 100 employees?+
€29 per month on the monthly plan, or €23 per month billed yearly — whether you have 100 employees, 500 or 5,000. Ashio is priced per organization, never per employee or per report, so the cost does not grow with your headcount.
What is not included in the price?+
Nothing is metered: no per-report fees, no per-employee fees and no add-on modules — every feature listed on this page is part of the plan. Larger rollouts, such as company groups or custom branding work, are priced in the Enterprise tier above.
How much do I save by paying yearly?+
Yearly billing costs €23 per month instead of €29 — 20% less, billed once a year.
What does compliant whistleblowing software typically cost?+
Lean self-service tools for compliant whistleblowing start at roughly €20–30 a month and are often limited by employee count, while enterprise suites cost several hundred or more. Ashio is €23–29/month flat for the whole organisation, whatever the headcount.
What are the most common pricing models for whistleblowing platforms?+
Four, and the shape matters more than the headline number: per-user pricing, tiers by organisation size, quote-only enterprise contracts with implementation fees, and flat-rate pricing. The first three mean the bill grows with headcount or hides behind a sales process. Ashio is flat: €23–29/month for the whole organisation, whatever the headcount.
