Team & Partners
Our team
From left to right: Akash Raj Komarlu, CTO and Co-founder, whose background in signal processing and voice technology shapes how Whispp runs directly on everyday devices. In the middle is Joris Castermans, CEO and Co-founder, whose personal experience with stuttering is the starting point for everything we build around spoken communication. On the right is Andreas Spechtler, former President of Dolby International and member of Whispp’s Board of Directors, who brings decades of experience in global audio, licensing and scaling technology companies.
Together with the wider Whispp team, they combine lived experience, engineering and international business expertise to create new ways for people to speak, whisper and communicate by voice in daily life.
