Intelligent finance

IRIS

Financial operations engineered for control, evidence and automation.

IRIS is being developed as an accounting product first. AI supports the accountant and the operator inside real financial workflows; it does not replace the accounting system with a chatbot.

The problem

Why this exists.

Finance teams often depend on fragmented tools, manual reconciliation and automation that sits outside the ledger. That makes control, auditability and operational ownership harder than they should be.

The response

What we are building.

IRIS brings accounting workflows, governed execution and evidence into one product surface. Financial actions follow explicit authority and approval paths, with canonical records designed for traceability.

Core capabilities

Designed around the work.

01

Native accounting workflows

Customers, invoices, receivables, payments, journals and close activity belong inside the product.

02

Governed financial execution

Material actions can pass through approval, authority and maker-checker controls before posting.

03

Canonical ledger

Balanced entries, append-only controls and traceable relationships protect the accounting record.

04

Operational evidence

Receipts and execution evidence show what occurred, through which path and under whose authority.

05

Workflow intelligence

AI assistance is applied inside accounting work rather than presented as a separate conversational layer.

06

Practice operations

The product direction includes client-specific work queues, document handling and close management.

Current product reality

What is true now.

Core accounting workflows, ledger controls and governed financial execution are under active development and independent verification. IRIS is not being presented as generally available until the full production path and operational controls are evidenced.
