IRISYS began in 2024, in the back of a parapharmacy near Place de la Bourse. Our co-founders had spent ten years watching beauty distributors and pharmacy chains chase numbers in spreadsheets — and watching software vendors pile dashboards on top of dashboards in response.
We thought there was a different bet to make. A system that does the work quietly, surfaces only what's consequential, and treats its users as adults. Three applications later, that bet still holds.
We are not a platform company. We are a system company — a single, coherent operating layer for industries where stockouts hurt and trust matters.
The best software fades. We measure success by how rarely a planner has to switch tabs, not by how many lights blink.
Every number we surface should withstand a five-minute conversation with a CFO. No "the AI says so" — only auditable logic.
Retail, Distribution and Procurement share one schema, one identity model, one audit log. Composition over duplication.
If it can't survive a Part 11 audit, we don't ship it. Compliance is a posture, not a feature toggle.
An audit log can be elegant. A CSV import can be elegant. We design for the parts of the application users actually live in.
We grow slowly. We write code we'll still be proud of in three years. We hire colleagues, not headcount.
We didn’t want another dashboard. We wanted fewer decisions to make.— A planner, on the day she stopped opening Excel
