FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Irys One?
Irys One is a unified platform for legal work, research, draft, edit, manage matters, and collaborate in one system built specifically for legal professionals.
What is included in every plan?
Every plan includes Workbench with Thorough mode, Drafting Assistant, Document Reader, Legal Research, Matter Management, Library, and the Word Add-In. All AI capabilities are on every plan, with no usage limits on Irys One.
What is Thorough mode?
Thorough is Workbench’s flagship mode. Instead of answering in a single pass, it runs a structured investigation, plans the research, reads your matter documents, checks case law, and produces a cite-ready memo with inline citations linked to source. Quick and Standard remain available for fast answers and long-form reports.
How is this different from ChatGPT or general AI?
General AI has no legal-specific guardrails, no check on the citations it produces, no matter management, and no audit trail. Irys One starts with your matter, documents, facts, and legal context, and produces real legal analysis with sourced citations.
Is Irys a wrapper around ChatGPT?
No. Wrappers take a general-purpose LLM, add a prompt template, and charge a markup. Irys is purpose-built infrastructure with its own multi-layered architecture, retrieval pipeline, source-linked citations, and matter-native context layer. We use the best available AI models. We own the legal system around them.
What does unlimited context mean?
Our multi-layered architecture processes documents across layers so matter context is preserved regardless of how many documents you upload. No token limits. Firms upload hundreds of documents into a single matter and the AI reads every page.
Is my data secure?
Yes. We never train on your data, and we retain it only under our data policies and the regulations that apply to us. End-to-end encryption, tenant isolation, MFA, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and CPRA-compliant infrastructure.
How much AI can I use on Irys One?
As much as you need. Irys One and Enterprise both include the full AI with no usage caps, no token limits, and no gated features. The AI is the same on both.
Do you offer a free trial?
Yes. Full platform access for 7 days. No credit card required. Your data, matters, and work product carry forward if you subscribe.
How does pricing work?
Irys One is $299/month, the full legal AI platform, unlimited, for an individual attorney. Irys Teams ($329 per seat/month, 2-25 attorneys) adds shared workspaces, role-based permissions, and admin controls. Larger app accounts (25+ seats) and custom deployments of any size are priced to agreed scope. Irys Lite ($19.99/month) is a capped on-ramp for evaluating the platform.
