About us
Our mission is to make your life with Whispp a little easier and more fun!
Why are we doing it?
Our vision. The next generation of Whispp.
The first version of Whispp will be launched shortly and will act as a smart speech amplifier. Soft, hoarse and whispering voices are made audible.
Developments will take some time, but with the future version of Whispp you will be able to speak with a natural sounding voice!
Our artificial intelligence-based speech technology will be able to convert whispered speech into a natural voice without delay with the intonation and emotion you intended.

Joris Castermans - CEO
Originally an industrial designer, I worked as an innovation consultant, business developer and alliance manager in IT and telecom. Based on my own experience of stuttering and interest in technology I founded Whispp. Worldwide 10 million people stutter severely or suffer from a voice disorder. This often has a major impact on their lives. Therefore it is my mission to enable these people to speak freely and empower them in their daily lives and work.
