The people behind Irys

Sabih Siddiqi is the co-founder and CEO of Irys, an AI-native legal workspace built by Iqidis, Inc. A former cross-border disputes and deal lawyer who spent seven years at Watson Farley & Williams, with experience across litigation, shipping and trade transactions, technology deals, and as external counsel to a bank, he built Irys to be the tool he wished he had while practicing: an AI that remembers a full matter, drafts inside Microsoft Word, cites real case law, and never trains on privileged client data.

Devansh is the Head of AI at Irys, the AI-native legal workspace built by Iqidis, Inc. A machine learning engineer and AI researcher, he writes the widely read newsletter Artificial Intelligence Made Simple and has built machine learning systems across legal technology, finance, and public health, with research in deepfake detection and retrieval-augmented generation. At Irys he leads the AI behind matter-aware retrieval, citation grounding, and legal reasoning.

Christian Brown is the Head of Product at Irys, the AI-native legal workspace built by Iqidis, Inc. An attorney and legal engineer admitted to the State Bar of Texas in 2012, he is the founder of the law firm and legal-AI consultancy Code & Counsel and a member of the OpenAI Forum. Over more than a decade he has worked across litigation, in-house counsel, and enterprise legal AI, including building contract-intelligence and retrieval-augmented systems at the contract-lifecycle-management platform Agiloft. At Irys he leads product strategy for Irys One.
