Powerfully simple lesson recording technology and integrated professional development platform
Classroom Recording
Adopt multiple viewpoints and audio sources using our Starter Kit, Discovery Kit, or your own devices with the IRIS Connect Record app, ensuring encrypted recording and uploading into your fully-secure and private account on our cloud-based platform.
Lesson Analysis
See your classroom from a new perspective and deconstruct the lesson to gain objective, deep classroom insights through powerful reflection supported by custom rubrics and AI-assisted observations at the click of a button.
Video Sharing
You’re in control of your recorded lessons at all times. You can choose to reflect on your own or share them with selected colleagues and administrators at the click of a button. The seamless editing functions allow you to share only the moments that matter, giving you complete control over what is shared and when.
Teacher Collaboration
Overcome timetabling constraints and cover expenses by providing contextualised feedback when and where it suits you, using time-linked text, audio and video comments.
Utilise Groups to create a safe space online to share videos, add custom content, and collaborate in departments, on a particular subject, or as a whole school.
Development Pathways
Progress through structured learning pathways that provide teachers with step-by-step guidance on specific areas of pedagogy through guided reflection, collaboration or instructional coaching.
With each pathway automatically recording progress, teachers can pick up where they left off and receive a lasting record of skill development over time.
Progress Tracking
Senior leaders or admins can stay up-to-date with their teacher’s progress using a simple dashboard that shows important steps on their individual journeys, allowing leaders to provide additional support where and when it’s needed.
Customisation
Adapt our learning resources to your needs or create your own pathways and shared resources specifically for your organization.

Safeguarding & Security
We take safeguarding and security seriously. All classroom videos are encrypted and automatically uploaded to the teacher’s private and secure account in our fully GDPR compliant platform, ready to reflect on or share at a later date.
By default, only the teacher who uploaded a recording has access to it unless they decide to share a video at their own discretion. Ensuring full control and privacy for every user.

Designed with busy teachers in mind, each camera is simple to set up, easy to use and light to transport between classrooms; taking the hassle out of lesson recording.

This depends.
- Does your organisation’s policy allow the use of personal devices? If they are not approved, you can either purchase an IRIS Connect Starter or Discovery Kit, or use shared school devices. Our consultants are happy to discuss your requirements with you and suggest a solution that meets your needs.
- Regardless of the device you’re using, you must always make sure you have installed and use the IRIS Connect Record app. Our app is designed to securely capture, encrypt and upload recordings directly to your account, then automatically remove the file once uploaded. This means data is never stored or viewed locally which can be a security risk. The app is also designed to manage the uploading of large files over the internet and offers a range of features such as pairing for capturing two views and anonymisation mode if you need to avoid capturing personal data when recording.
