A project changes hands.

The information transfer nightmare.
A project runs for months….Sometimes years.
Then one day, the collaborator in charge changes.
What usually happens?
A few forwarded emails.
Some files attached “just in case”.
A handover meeting.
And a lot of missing context.
Because email was never designed to transmit knowledge.
Only messages.
IRISTIA changes that.
With IRISTIA, a project is not handed over via emails.
It is handed over via Heritage.
The incoming collaborator does not receive:
copied inboxes
forwarded threads
duplicated files
They receive access to:
the relevant email Patrimony
the full history of exchanges
the attachments in their original context
the decisions, their timing, and their rationale
Nothing is moved.
Nothing is duplicated.
Access is granted — precisely, temporarily or permanently.
And this is where AI becomes meaningful.
Because the memory it works on is complete, considered, and unaltered,
AI can help reconstruct:
the real state of the project
the sequence of decisions
the constraints and trade-offs
the strategic options that were considered — and those that were not
Not guesses.
Not summaries of fragments.
But understanding.
This is not email management.
This is a new semantics for email.
Email is no longer:
read / unread
sent / received
It becomes:
personal Patrimony
shared Heritage
project-based access
continuity without disruption
At individual level, the benefit is immediate:
no reconstruction
no loss of context
no overload
Just continuity.
At corporate level, the benefit is structural:
– continuity across projects and teams– preserved decision history and timing– reliable, unaltered memory for AI and governance
Sustainable corporate memory.
