Iris is an orchestration runtime for AI agents.

A persistent harness that manages agents, runs durable workflows, and executes tasks across any model and any tool. The Iris Stack adds the governance and quality layers that make that autonomy trustworthy. Open source under Apache 2.0.

What it's for

Iris exists because of the things that actually break AI systems in production, not because of what looks good in a demo. Agents that die between sessions and lose everything they were holding. No audit trail for what an agent actually did on your behalf. Behaviour welded to one provider's API, so the system's economics and availability are somebody else's roadmap.

It answers those with a persistent runtime, durable workflows that survive restarts, human-in-the-loop approvals as a state the system can wait in rather than a meeting that happens afterwards, and safe retries and recovery.

How it runs

Iris runs on your own VM or in isolated Firecracker microVM sandboxes. Autonomy is a dial rather than a switch — Supervised, Guided, Informed, Autonomous — so how much the system is allowed to do on its own can expand as the evidence justifies it, and contract when it doesn't. It's reachable over Slack and Telegram.

Why it's open

People adopt infrastructure they can audit. Code that others can read, run, and criticise gets held to a higher standard than anything built behind a wall — and it lets the people building the same future check our work instead of taking our word for it.

A managed Iris Cloud offering is coming.

The Iris Stack

Production AI systems need more than an agent that can act. They need a runtime that persists, a clear moment for human judgment, and proof that changes have not made the system worse. We build each layer independently, so teams can adopt one or use them together.

  1. 01

    Runtime

    Iris Core

    The persistent, self-hosted runtime for agents that work across Slack, Telegram, and the web; use any model, any tool, and isolated sub-agents when the work calls for it.

    • Durable workflows
    • Agent orchestration
    • Model and tool independence

    Open source · Apache 2.0

  2. 02

    Governance

    RelayKit

    The human-in-the-loop relay layer inside Iris. It routes agent decisions to the right person for approval, missing context, review, or takeover — with a full audit trail behind every handoff.

    • Agent-to-human relay
    • Approval states
    • Audit trail

    Quality

    Pupil

    Continuous quality engineering for AI agents. Pupil runs repeatable evaluations, measures real operating signals, and catches regressions before a changed prompt, model, or workflow reaches production.

    • Scenario evaluation
    • Regression gates
    • Quality metrics

Coming soon

Iris Cloud

The managed, cloud-hosted way to run Iris Core. We are building it for teams that want the runtime without having to operate the infrastructure themselves.
