iRise is a software company facilitates the visualization of models and prototype business applications before they’re built so businesses can “test drive” the software and increase efficiency by “getting it right the first time.”
The primary target audience for iRise includes CIOs, IT professionals, business analysts, product managers, and usability professionals. iRise simulations help innovative organizations visualize business applications before they’re built to accelerate time-to-market, increase innovation, reduce development costs and drive business value.
iRise is a privately held software company based in Los Angeles and is funded by Morgan Stanley Venture Partners and Deutsche Bank. More than 160 companies have used iRise on more than 3,000 projects.
Collaboration is the key to success for business application projects. The iRise Definition Center is where teams defining software meet.
By working more effectively together in a shared workspace, application definition teams:
iRise interactive documents, or iDocs, provide the people you want with the ability to test drive new software – before coding ever begins. By installing the freely distributed iDoc Reader, key stakeholders interact with simulations anywhere they can take their laptops. iDocs can be easily emailed, which means you can engage end users or even do test marketing - anytime, anywhere.
The iRise Reader client software is required to view iDocs, available at no cost (valid email address required):

iRise Studio is an application definition authoring tool used by business analysts, usability professionals and project managers to quickly visualize and define business software. Unlike traditional requirements tools, iRise Studio can be used to create fully interactive, high definition replicas of the target application that stakeholders actually delight in using. iRise simulations are easy to assemble for non-programmers and are so realistic users will swear they are interacting with the final production application. The “drag and drop” interface is easy to master and the final product becomes a visual blueprint for what to build. No confusion, no lost cycles and no rework.
