About this tool
Establishing a robust whistleblower hotline setup is no longer optional for modern enterprises. Since the enforcement of the EU Whistleblowing Directive (Directive 2019/1937) and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), organizations with 50+ employees are legally mandated to provide secure, confidential channels for reporting misconduct.
Our tool simplifies this transition from regulatory anxiety to corporate excellence. We provide an end-to-end framework for configuring internal reporting channels that prioritize anonymity while ensuring full compliance with international standards like ISO 37002. Unlike expensive SaaS providers that gate their pricing, we offer a 100% free, no-signup roadmap for your compliance journey.
The Importance of Whistleblower Protection
A whistleblowing system is the most effective way to detect fraud, corruption, and workplace harassment early. By providing a safe, anonymous tip line, you foster a culture of transparency that protects both the organization’s reputation and its bottom line. Our system helps you bridge the gap between "having a policy" and "executing a compliant reporting lifecycle."

Frequently Asked Questions
In the EU, any organization with 50 or more employees is mandated to have a reporting system. In the US, it depends on the industry (healthcare/categories/general-utilities/) and whether the company is public. However, many experts recommend hotlines for all businesses as an early-warning system for liability.
Yes. Many companies outsource the first level of intake (the hotline) to third-party providers to ensure impartial and professional management of initial reports. Our tool helps you decide which model (Internal vs. Outsourced) fits your risk profile.
Retaliation protection involves both legal policies and technical controls. You must ensure that reporting persons are never penalized (demoted, fired) for reporting. Our generated policy includes specific anti-retaliation clauses to shield both the company and the reporter.
Under the EU Whistleblowing Directive, organizations must notify the reporter that their submission was received within 7 calendar days. Failure to do so is a compliance breach.
No. Like all tools, the processing happens client-side. Your organization name, industry, and reporting configurations stay on your device.
