Control your Mac with your voice

Say it.
Iris does it.

Talk to your Mac and Iris opens, clicks, types and searches for you. With Claude Code it does whole jobs across your apps, and asks before it sends, deletes or pays.

Free beta for Macs with Apple silicon. Works with or without Claude Code.

What it does for you

Delegate the tedious work.

Starts from what you've done “Here's the email for Jane Okafor. Go ahead?” One yes, and the Aurora quote, laid out like the Riverside one, is on its way: €9,711.20 with VAT.

The real Iris on a demo Mac, recorded in real time.

The orb

A drop of light
that lives on your Mac.

Iris lives in the light round your screen. When you ask, that light gathers into a drop; while it works it rests low, clear of your windows; when it is done it melts back into the edge. If you like, it stays out and lives by itself.

Six looks

How often you see it

  1. Off

    Only the light round the screen.

  2. With Iris

    Out while it works for you, then gone.

  3. Now and then

    A short visit after you have been away.

  4. Always

    Keeps you company, livelier when you rest.

Pull it out with the mouse and let it go: it flies, and splashes into the edge it hits. It never moves, raises or clicks your windows.

The app's own orb, running live in this page. Pull it.

Hands-free · no AI on the way

Your whole Mac,
by voice.

Say «Iris, hands-free» and keep talking: no wake word between commands, no model in the middle. Each command runs in a fraction of a second and shows what it did beside the notch. It works without Claude Code.

Why you can trust Iris

You decide.
Iris acts.

It asks first.

  1. Anything that sends, deletes or pays shows you a card and waits for your yes.
  2. No answer in 30 seconds means no. Nothing moves.
  3. Money always asks, whatever the setting.

Say “stop”, or press ⌥⎋, and everything stops: the voice, the actions, every process it started.

It also shows you where, and learns your routines.

When it can't do something yet

Missing something?
Just ask.

Ask for something Iris has no way to do yet. It builds what's missing, tries it, and shows you exactly what it made. Nothing is kept without your yes.

A command it doesn't have

Iris writes a small program (Swift, AppleScript or a shell script), builds it and shows you a card with the program inside. Say yes and it becomes one of its tools. A command never sends, deletes, writes files, types, clicks or goes online: the app refuses any program that tries.

A routine from one request

Say “when I say work mode, quit everything and open Terminal.” Iris does it once, checks it worked, and keeps it. Next time it runs at once, with no AI call. Ask for the same thing twice, the same way, and it learns it on its own.

A skill from what worked

When a job takes a detour, Iris notes what worked. When the same job keeps coming back, it writes the method down as a skill and asks you before keeping it.

Building a command or a skill needs Claude Code. Routines it has learned run without it.

Free, with or without Claude Code

Works on its own, on your Mac.
Full power with Claude Code.

Claude Code is optional. Without it, Iris runs on your Mac alone and sends your words to no AI service. Connect Claude Code, with a Claude plan or an API key, and Iris understands anything you ask, however you put it.

What goes where

Your Mac. Your AI.
Your call.

Stays on your Mac

Your audio, the wake word, Iris's voice, your dictation history and your profile.

Goes to your AI provider, with Claude Code

Your requests, and what your connected services return, through your own Claude Code login. Without Claude Code, your words go to no AI service. Iris has no server and no AI of its own.

Nothing without your click

No telemetry, no analytics, no account. Nothing leaves your Mac without your click: a problem report or the beta's weekly report, you read it first and send it yourself. The only other thing we keep is your email for the beta, deleted within 30 days after it ends.

Stays on your Mac

  • Your audio
  • The wake word
  • Iris's voice
  • Your dictation history
  • Your profile

Your AI provider

Hidden from screen sharing and recordings by default. Apps you block are never read, clicked or typed into.

Questions

Do I need Claude Code?

No. Without it Iris runs on your Mac alone: the wake word, its voice, quick actions, hands-free mode, dictation and the routines you've taught it. With Claude Code it understands anything you ask, in your own words, and does whole jobs across your apps.

What does it cost?

The beta is free. Without Claude Code it already controls your Mac by voice. For whole jobs it uses Claude Code, which you install and sign in to yourself: with a Claude plan that includes it, or with an API key. Usage counts on your own Anthropic account. Iris adds no subscription of its own.

How finished is it?

An early beta: expect rough edges. The weekly report is how you tell us what breaks.

Which Macs does it run on?

Macs with Apple silicon on macOS 26 or later.

What is Claude Code, and do I need to know how to code?

Claude Code is Anthropic's command-line app for Claude. Iris uses it behind the scenes; you install it and sign in once, with a Claude plan or an API key (Iris's setup walks you through it), and never have to open it again. No coding needed.

Which languages does it speak?

English and Italian, for listening, answering and dictation.

Does it look at my screen?

Only as a last resort. Iris uses your connected services first, then each app's own scripting, and the screen and the mouse only when nothing else works. It asks for the Screen Recording permission for those cases.

Are the scenes on this page real?

They are rebuilt from real recordings of Iris on a demo Mac.

Is Iris made by Anthropic or Apple?

No. Iris is an independent project. It uses the Claude Code you install and sign in to yourself. How Anthropic counts third-party tools may change.

Say it. Iris does it.
