Whistleblower Software, made by Formalize, is a web-based reporting and case management system that lets organizations run an internal whistleblowing channel. Employees and other stakeholders submit reports through a dedicated link or QR code, either confidentially or anonymously, and designated case handlers manage them in one place. The company positions the product as a way to comply with EU whistleblowing laws while saving time.
The vendor says it is trusted by small organizations and large enterprises in more than 80 countries and by over 5,000,000 employees. It also describes itself as the top-rated whistleblowing system on G2 with 5 out of 5 stars. These are the company's own claims, so buyers should verify them on the review platform. Customer quotes on the site come from compliance and legal professionals, including a Belgian operator of Burger King and Quick restaurants.
The vendor describes a three-step process. First, the organization customizes its reporting page by selecting reporting options, adding policies and guidelines, editing the questions and applying its brand identity. Second, it distributes the link across the organization. Individual links can be created for departments or branches, and more link options are available on request.
Third, reports are handled in one place. Case handlers can exchange messages with the reporter after submission, including when the report is anonymous. The system sends deadline reminders, shows statistics and delegates cases to designated handlers automatically. External parties such as law firms or consultants can be invited to access cases securely, and a redaction feature removes identifying details before reports are shared with them.
On the reporting side, the product supports anonymous and confidential submissions, file uploads, voice reports with optional voice distortion, and automatic translations. The reporter can see everyone who receives the report. The channel supports 80+ languages, with 10 included in the setup.
Security and privacy features are central. Communication is end-to-end encrypted so that case data can only be viewed by the encryption key holder, and metadata is removed from uploaded files. The platform lists two-factor authentication, SSO with OAuth, IP whitelisting, a 4-eye principle and an optional multi-user flow for case deletions.
For case management, the product lists a case overview, advanced reporting and statistics, access controls, email and SMS notifications, a digital postbox for secure communication, and support for both internal and external reporting. Users, cases, departments and file uploads are all described as unlimited.

Yes, if the organization allows it. The vendor says it uses end-to-end encryption, strips metadata from uploaded files and does not track IP addresses. Voices can also be distorted, and the reporter and handler can still exchange follow-up messages.
