Ask IRIS + Lantern.

Ask a question in plain English. Get the answer from your own records, with sources.

Ask IRIS answers from your agency’s bulletins, handbook, library, forms and contacts, and links every point to where it came from. Lantern, our AI governance layer, decides what the AI is allowed to read and keeps a record of every request.

Ask IRIS + Lantern

The answer is in there. Somewhere.

Policy and reference material is spread across manuals, folders and old emails. An officer with a question either guesses or calls someone.

Ask IRIS finds it in seconds, from your material only. If it can’t back an answer with a source, it says so instead of guessing.

01

Answers with sources

Every answer links to the document it came from, and a PDF opens at the cited page.

Ask from anywhere

Ask from the home page, the bulletins page or the phone, the way you would ask a coworker.

And more

Respects security levels

People only get answers from material they are cleared to see. Standard, Sensitive and Secure stay separate.

Your agency picks the sources

Choose which kinds of content the AI may read: bulletins, handbook, library, forms, contacts. Who can see something and whether AI may use it are separate settings.

Governed by Lantern

Every AI request goes through Lantern. It is logged, metered and capped, and it can be switched off.

Kept out of commercial AI

The AI runs in a government cloud. Criminal justice information and RMS uploads are kept out of it.

Who uses it

  • Every sworn and civilian member
  • Admins who choose the sources
  • Command staff

How it fits

Ask IRIS reads what the rest of IRIS holds: bulletins, policies, forms and your library. Lantern governs every AI feature on the platform, not just Ask.

One platform. Use just what you need. You stay in control.
