IRIS Casting Ecosystem

IRIS is an AI-powered casting platform built from decades of hands-on casting and production experience. It is not designed to replace the human side of casting, but to protect it.
Casting is a creative craft, yet too much of it is still spent on files, emails, self-tapes, availability and communication. IRIS uses AI and smart automation for the parts of the workflow that technology can and should handle today, so more time goes to the work that must stay human: discovering people, interpreting performances, discussing creative choices and deciding who gets the role. That final choice is always human, shaped by instinct, chemistry and creative vision.
For performers, IRIS makes casting clearer and more respectful. Better information about the role means less guessing about what a self-tape should deliver. Performers can see where their material is in the process, their data and tapes are handled safely, and the work they put into a self-tape keeps its value beyond a single casting, building future opportunities across borders.
IRIS brings casting directors, directors, producers, actors and agents into one connected workspace.
IRIS is in its pilot phase and is preparing to enter the European market in 2027.
Come have a mimosa and a croissant, and hear more about IRIS.
We’re also looking for European casting directors who want to help shape a tool built for the realities of casting, and we’d love to hear from agents and performers whose experience can make IRIS better. If you’re one of them, come talk to us after the presentation – we’d be thrilled to meet you.
