Iris is revolutionizing the deal desk for businesses around the world. As deal cycles have become more complex (more buyers, more competition, and tighter budgets), the role of GTM teams have drastically changed. To win today, sellers need to be able to customize content to specific buyers using institutional knowledge that has historically been dispersed throughout a business. Every company sells. We make the hardest parts of selling easier with AI. Using your institutional knowledge, Iris generates highly-tailored content like RFPs, security questionnaires, and other sales enablement and support content to accelerate deal cycles, win more business, and enable higher-performing and more knowledgable teams.

Authentic, fresh, tasty. Greek. Tziki was Born out of a collaborative effort between five friends who have long shared the desire for authentic souvlaki in New York City. Fewer, better ingredients and masterfully crafted product-driven creations that reflect the tradition of Greek street food. Tziki features art and designs by Cretan artist Alexandra Manousakis. Honoring the ancient practice of ceramic art, Manousakis has created handmade decorative pots, plates, tiles and wall art for Tziki, characterized by bold elements and aesthetic consistency that blend contemporary Greek island life with the city’s ever-changing and always-evolving environment.
