Cairo-based iVoiceUp has raised a **strategic investment round led by regional venture capital firm A15, marking an important milestone in the company’s ambition to scale its AI-powered ethics, whistleblowing, and compliance case management platform across the Middle East.
The investment, reported on December 14, 2025, will support iVoiceUp’s expansion across Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, markets where regulatory expectations, ESG scrutiny, and corporate governance requirements are tightening rapidly.
Founded in Cairo, iVoiceUp provides organisations with secure, anonymous channels for reporting misconduct, ethical concerns, and compliance breaches. Its platform leverages AI to help enterprises triage, prioritise, and manage cases ranging from fraud and corruption to harassment and workplace misconduct—while protecting the identity of whistleblowers through advanced anonymity features.
A core differentiator for iVoiceUp is its focus on inclusivity and real-world usability. The system is designed to be accessible to both white-collar and blue-collar workforces, as well as external stakeholders such as suppliers. Features like voice masking, anonymous two-way communication, and structured case workflows allow organisations to investigate issues thoroughly without compromising reporter safety.
The company already serves large enterprises across the region and supports more than one million users, positioning it as one of the more mature players in the MENA governance and compliance technology space. With fresh capital, iVoiceUp plans to deepen its regional footprint and roll out new capabilities, including advanced AI-driven case analytics and anonymous interview tools.
For A15, the investment aligns with its thesis around backing technology companies that combine strong commercial potential with meaningful societal impact—particularly as responsible AI, ethics, and compliance move from policy discussions into operational necessity.
As MENA organisations scale across borders and face growing scrutiny from regulators, investors, and employees alike, platforms like iVoiceUp are increasingly becoming part of core enterprise infrastructure rather than optional add-ons.
Editor’s Note
Ethics, whistleblowing, and compliance are no longer “back-office” topics in MENA—they’re front-and-centre issues tied directly to risk, reputation, and long-term value creation. What makes iVoiceUp notable is not just the technology, but the timing: regional enterprises are being forced to operationalise governance at scale, often across multiple jurisdictions. Strategic investments like this suggest a broader shift, where AI-enabled compliance tools are moving from niche solutions to foundational enterprise systems.
