Most spaces are designed with sight in mind and sound as an afterthought. For people with sensory sensitivities, hearing loss, ADHD, autism, PTSD, migraines, or simply a need to focus, sound can be the difference between belonging and avoidance. Noise isn’t just inconvenient; it shapes behaviour, wellbeing, and access.

Whisper captures how places feel to real people, in real time. Community contributions combine measured data (decibel levels, frequency profiles, temporal patterns) with human context (calming, harsh, echoey, mask-unfriendly, announcement clarity). The result is a nuanced, human-centred picture of sound, not just how loud, but how livable.
