Voice intake for global research teams
AI researchers and safety leads often work in mixed-language teams. Reporters can dictate their report in any of 17 languages. The server only ever sees the text.
AI compliance
A confidential reporting channel, built for AI companies.
AI-ettevõtted seisavad silmitsi ELi rikkumisest teavitavate isikute kaitse direktiivi eriversiooniga: globaalsed uurimisrühmad, mitmekeelne personal ja mainerisk, mis on suurem kui enamikul tööstusharudestest. Pakume kanalit, mis vastab direktiivile 2019/1937, sobib AI-tiimide tegelikule tööviisile ja läbib reaalse hanke due diligence küsimustiku.

Overview
Why AI companies need this
The EU Whistleblower Directive 2019/1937 applies to any legal entity with 50+ employees that operates in the EU, regardless of industry. AI companies hit this threshold early — often at Series A — and once they sell to enterprise customers, the requirement is reinforced by procurement due-diligence questionnaires that ask for a documented internal reporting channel. The AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) does not itself require a whistleblower channel, but it does require general-purpose AI providers to have internal grievance mechanisms for fundamental-rights issues. A single channel covers both obligations without operational overlap.
What applies to you
The regulations that touch AI companies
Most AI companies we work with are navigating two parallel compliance regimes at once. Here is what the law actually requires — and where our channel maps onto it.
EU Directive 2019/1937
Internal reporting channels for legal entities with 50+ employees. Seven-day acknowledgment, three-month feedback, no retaliation. Member-state law (e.g. HinSchG in Germany, Loi Sapin II in France) layers on local specifics.
AI Act 2024/1689 (Article 86)
General-purpose AI providers must enable fundamental-rights complaints. Our internal channel routes those to the right team without changing the data flow.
Procurement due diligence
Enterprise customers routinely include a "describe your internal reporting channel" question in their vendor security questionnaires. Saying "email us" is not a passing answer in 2026.
Whistleblower protection
Anti-retaliation duties apply to the AI company once a report is filed. Documented intake + case history is the employer's strongest defense in any subsequent dispute.
ISO 27001 / SOC 2 alignment
Sertifikaatide poole püüdlevad AI-ettevõtted vajavad dokumenteeritud, auditeeritavat sissevõtu- ja juhtumihaldusprotsessi. Meie juhtumipõhine sündmuste logi ajatemplite ja tegutsejatega on auditijälg, mis toetab neid nõudeid — see ei ole kogu audit, vaid kõige paremini testitud osa.
Why Ashio for AI
A channel that fits how AI teams actually work
The reason most AI companies pick us over a generic ticketing tool or a Slack-channel workaround.
Per-case access URLs
Every case gets a unique URL the reporter can use to follow up anonymously. No login, no account, no friction. Same model as how Linear and Notion share issues.
End-to-end encryption
Teataja krüpteerib teavituse brauseris võtmega, mis on ainult temal. Turvajuht dekrüpteerib. Sisu me ei saa lugeda.
Alla 50 töötajat? Paljud AI-ettevõtted alustavad siiski siit.
Isegi alla direktiivi 50 töötaja künnise, dokumenteeritud sisemine teavituskanal aitab läbida ettevõtete ostu due diligence küsimustikud. Paljud meie kliendid, kellel on alla 50 töötajat, võtavad selle kasutusele enne Series A-d SOC 2 auditi jaoks või seetõttu, et nende esimene ettevõtte klient küsis seda tarnija turvaküsimustikus.
Routes to the right team automatically
Reports can be auto-assigned to your safety lead, your DPO, or your compliance officer based on the report category. No manual triage required.
Filtreerige juhtpaneeli kategooria järgi
Juhtumite loendit saab filtreerida kategooria järgi — mudeli eelarvamus, andmekaitse, hindamise terviklikkus jm. Iga teavitus kannab oma kategooriat esitamisest alates, nii et teie turvajuht saab tuua ainult asjakohased üksused.
Compliance checklist
Set this up before your next enterprise deal
A pre-flight list for AI companies about to sign a contract that requires a documented reporting channel.
- 1
Document the channel exists and is operational
Most procurement questionnaires ask for this as a hard requirement. A live URL with a unique access link per case is the standard answer.
- 2
Document the 7-day acknowledgment SLA
The directive requires feedback to the reporter within seven days. We enforce this with a per-case deadline that is visible to every admin from day one.
- 3
Document the 3-month feedback window
The directive also requires feedback on how the report was handled within three months. Our case status supports this out of the box.
- 4
Document the anti-retaliation posture
The directive prohibits retaliation against the reporter. Your hiring, compensation, and assignment records need to be defensible. The case log is the source of truth for that.
- 5
Document the cross-border applicability
If you have staff in multiple EU countries, the local transposition may add extra requirements. Our locales system maps each country to its specific law.
FAQ
Common questions from AI companies
Does the EU AI Act require a whistleblower channel?+
No, not directly. The AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) requires general-purpose AI providers to enable fundamental-rights complaints under Article 86. A whistleblower channel is required by the separate Directive 2019/1937, which applies to legal entities with 50+ employees. Most AI companies we work with operate the single internal channel that satisfies both — the legal duties are complementary, not duplicative.
We are below 50 employees. Do we still need this?+
Not for EU Directive 2019/1937 compliance. But if you sell to enterprise customers, the SOC 2 / ISO 27001 questionnaires most large buyers use will ask "do you have an internal reporting channel?" Saying "no" is increasingly disqualifying. The cost of a 14-day free trial is much lower than losing a deal over that question.
We are a remote-first company. Does this work?+
Yes. The intake is a public URL — reporters can file from any browser, in any country, in any of 17 languages. The dashboard is a normal web app. There is nothing to install on the reporter's device or in your infrastructure.
How do you handle retaliation cases?+
Our role is the intake and the case log. The actual anti-retaliation protection (employment law, HR investigations) is your responsibility. What we do provide is a defensible record: every case has a full event log with timestamps and the acting user, so any subsequent retaliation claim can be cross-referenced against the case timeline.
Can reports go to our AI safety lead automatically?+
Yes. You can set a default assignee per case category, so reports about model bias, data privacy, or eval integrity go straight to the right person. Multi-stage review (initial triage, then escalation) is also supported.
Kas häälsisend on ELi teavituskanalites lubatud?+
Jah. ELi rikkumisest teavitavate isikute kaitse direktiiv (artikkel 10 lõige 2 punkt b) loetleb selgesõnaliselt "häälsisendi vahendid" kui vastavuskõlbuliku kanali. Meie häälsisend transkribeeritakse teataja brauseris ja seejärel kustutatakse heli. Server näeb ainult saadud teksti.
Kui kiiresti peavad AI-ettevotted ELI oiguse kohaselt teavituse kinnitama?+
7 päeva jooksul vastuvõtmisest. ELi direktiiv 2019/1937 (artikkel 7) nõuab kinnitust 7 päeva jooksul ja tagasisidet tulemuse kohta 3 kuu jooksul. Meie platvorm jõustab mõlemad tähtajad juhtumipõhiste nähtavate taimeritena.
Mida otsib SOC 2 audiitor teavituskanalist?+
Enamik SOC 2 auditeid otsivad kolme asja: (1) dokumenteeritud sissevõtt juurdepääsetava URL-iga, (2) kinnitus SLA ajatemplitega, ja (3) võltsimiskindel logi selle kohta, kes juhtumit käsitles. Meil on kõik kolm standardtoote osana.
Millised on ELi rikkumisest teavitavate isikute kaitse direktiivi 50 töötaja künnised?+
Privaatses sektoris kehtib direktiiv juriidilistele isikutele, kus on vähemalt 50 töötajat. Avalikus sektoris kehtib see kõikidele asutustele, kus on vähemalt 10 kohalikku omavalitsuse töötajat, ja kõikidele valitsusasutustele, olenemata suurusest.
