Iris

Overview

Iris is an AI proposal operating system spanning the full lifecycle from bid qualification to outcome learning. It supports RFPs, RFIs, RFQs, sales proposals, security questionnaires, DDQs, SOWs, business cases, and browser portals in one governed workspace.

Founded in 2023 by Ben Hills and Sagee Moyal, Iris says more than 300 companies use the platform and its team has grown to 25. The company announced a $3 million seed round in 2025 led by Florida Funders with Naples Technology Ventures participating.

Key Features

• Go/No-Go — Reads large RFPs, extracts questions and clauses, scores fit against win history and capacity, identifies gaps, and recommends bid or pass.
• Research — Builds a cited intelligence layer from company sources, public prospect information, CRM records, emails, and call transcripts.
• War Room — Runs a structured sales interview to capture buyer-specific priorities, champions, blockers, and commitments.
• Response Generation — Produces narrative answers in the team's voice with a citation on every claim, configurable tone, length, and structure.
• Collaboration — Routes work to experts with timers, sentence-level comments, formal timestamped sign-off, recoverable versions, and complete audit logs.
• Recommendations — Connects outcomes to content, SMEs, and capability gaps so the next go/no-go and response improve.
• Dynamic Knowledge — Continuously syncs approved content from knowledge, CRM, enablement, GRC, and call-intelligence systems.

Integrations

Current integrations include Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Drive, SharePoint, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Confluence, Notion, Highspot, Seismic, Drata, Vanta, Gong, and GovSpend. Iris MCP connects live workspace intelligence to ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, and other MCP-compatible clients. SSO and role-based access work with Okta, Microsoft, and Google.

Security & Compliance

Iris states SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance, tenant isolation, encryption in transit and at rest, zero model data retention, no customer-data training, role-based controls, content-level permissions, SSO, SCIM, complete revision history, audit-log export, and annual third-party penetration tests. Hosting-region choices are not stated publicly.

Pricing

Pricing remains custom and per active user. Full platform access includes unlimited RFPs, proposals, DDQs, and security questionnaires with no usage caps or overages, plus SSO/SAML/SCIM, a dedicated CSM, implementation, and MCP access. No public dollar price, free tier, or free trial is documented.

Best For

Iris fits mid-market and enterprise sales engineering, proposal, security, operations, and marketing teams that want buyer-aware research and strategy alongside governed drafting and collaboration, especially where knowledge lives across CRM, GRC, call, and enablement systems.

Considerations

Per-user pricing is not quantified publicly, and no free trial or residency-region options are documented. Iris is still an early-stage vendor, and current G2 users most often request additional integrations, mobile functionality, and feature depth while occasionally reporting bugs or inaccurate answers.
