Every voice, any language
With full multilingual support, employees can submit reports and navigate the platform in the language they’re most comfortable with—removing barriers, reducing misunderstandings, and increasing trust. By making it easy for everyone to engage, regardless of location or language, you create a more inclusive, effective, and responsive reporting environment.
Shape your process
Tailor submission types
Whether you're collecting disclosures for conflicts of interest, gifts and hospitality, or any other policy requirement, you can build custom submission types that align with your internal standards. Empower your team to report what matters, in a format that makes sense for your business.
Control your process
Set up custom workflows with tasks, approvals, and checkpoints that align with your internal processes. Ensure key steps are completed before submission moves forward. With SpeakUp, your workflow enforces consistency, accountability, and progress every time.
Provide the right permissions
Ensure every stakeholder sees exactly what they need, and nothing they shouldn’t. With granular permissions, you can assign access at the individual or group level, protecting sensitive data while enabling smooth collaboration. Keep your investigations both secure and efficient.
Own the outcome
Determine retention of information
Cases are automatically removed after a set retention period to meet standard compliance requirements. But flexibility is built in: if your organization has different policies or must meet local legal obligations, you can define custom retention rules. Your processes stay aligned with evolving regulations.

Frequently asked questions
What is SpeakUp Paths?
SpeakUp Paths is a disclosure and approval management module within the SpeakUp platform. It enables organizations to manage structured submission workflows for conflicts of interest, gifts and entertainment registers, and donations and sponsorships. Each workflow type can be configured with custom forms, approval chains, and escalation rules.
How does SpeakUp Paths handle conflict of interest disclosures?
SpeakUp Paths provides a structured, auditable process for employees to declare potential conflicts of interest. Compliance teams can define custom disclosure forms, set up multi-level review and approval workflows, and maintain a searchable register of all declarations. This creates a transparent record that supports both internal governance and regulatory audits.
Can organizations customize the approval workflows in SpeakUp Paths?
Yes. Every workflow in SpeakUp Paths is fully configurable. Organizations can define their own form fields, approval hierarchies, escalation triggers, and notification rules without technical support. This flexibility allows the platform to match existing internal policies rather than forcing organizations to adapt to a rigid system.
Why do enterprise organizations need a disclosure management tool alongside whistleblowing?
Whistleblowing addresses misconduct after the fact. Disclosure management is preventive: it captures potential conflicts, gifts, and financial interests before they become compliance risks. Enterprise organizations with complex operations, multiple subsidiaries, and large workforces need both capabilities on a single platform to maintain a complete view of their ethical risk landscape.
What type of organizations use SpeakUp?
SpeakUp is built for enterprise and multinational organizations, while also supporting the ethics and compliance needs of Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs). More than 750 organizations trust the platform, including global brands like Nestlé, Daimler Truck, Electrolux, Primark, Swarovski, and METRO AG.
The platform supports complex, multi-entity structures and is used by organizations with operations across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory environments. And the high-level of customization and flexibility means that it can suit your needs whatever they may be.
How quickly can SpeakUp be implemented?
Most organizations are live within days, not months. SpeakUp is recognized by G2 as a leader in fastest implementation and go-live time for whistleblowing, disclosures, and HR case management software. The platform requires no technical expertise to configure: compliance teams can set up branded intake forms, custom workflows, and routing rules themselves.
That being said, our Customer Success team is always available for implementation support and to answer any questions.
