Redis Adds Six Capabilities to Iris to Move AI Agents Into Production

San Francisco – November 04, 2026 -- Redis has expanded Redis Iris, its real-time context engine for AI agents, to six customizable capabilities, four of them generally available and two in beta. The company targets the inefficiencies that keep agents out of production: over-stuffed prompts, redundant LLM calls and brittle custom integrations that cost more in tokens and time than the value they return.
Four of six Iris capabilities are generally available today
Intent Router matches the meaning of a request rather than its wording and sends it to a remembered FAQ, an agent skill, a human or an LLM. It also supports agent and model routing, guardrails and "fuzzy" if-statements, so decisions are not limited to true or false.
