Quick answer

Iru (formerly Kandji) sells Apple-first endpoint management with security, identity and compliance on one platform: Endpoint Management, EDR, Vulnerability Management, Workforce Identity, Compliance Automation and Trust Center, each licensed separately and quoted on annual terms. Founded in 2018 and led by CEO Adam Pettit, it now also manages Windows 11 and company-owned Android. Tenants sit in the US or EU, with no India region. Read more ↓ Show less ↑

Passport

Platform & engine

Mac login with identity-provider credentials, deployed as a Library Item. Iru’s docs call it a feature of Iru Endpoint, never a separate SKU, so it has no page and no price of its own; it is covered on the Endpoint Management page

Auto Apps

Platform & engine

A catalogue of 200+ third-party apps that Iru packages, installs and keeps updated on Mac and Windows. It is part of Endpoint Management, and Vulnerability Management uses it to push CVE fixes

Liftoff

Platform & engine

Iru’s onboarding experience for new devices during zero-touch deployment, so a new hire’s Mac arrives set up. A feature of Endpoint Management, explained on that page rather than sold on its own

Prism

Platform & engine

Iru’s device data layer: it collects inventory and configuration data across the fleet for custom reports and exports, and feeds Iru AI. Included with Endpoint Management rather than sold alone

Iru AI

Platform & engine

The platform’s AI layer, formerly called Kai: agents and natural-language questions about the fleet, built on what Iru calls the Iru Context Model. Iru documents no separate SKU or price for it

Iru for MSPs

Platform & engine

A partner portal where managed service providers create child tenants, provision products and see estimated spend. MSP Billing is available only in the United States so far, with EU support described as coming

The thesis

Why “one tenant, Apple first” is the whole story

Most Apple shops run one tool for Macs, another for sign-in, another for threat detection and a fourth for audits. Iru sells all of them fromone tenant that already knows each device’s health, so a sign-in rule or an audit control can read the same data the MDM collects. The catch: Windows and Android are newer and narrower than the Apple side, and hosting is US or EU only.

01
The code on each Mac and PC

Iru Agent

Installs apps, runs scripts and reports inventory, and on Windows pairs with Microsoft’s MDM framework; now on the 5.x line, so keep it current.

02
One console, US or EU

Iru tenant

Endpoint, identity and compliance products share one tenant, pinned to AWS in the US or Germany; Blueprints and Assignment Maps set policy.

03
How features are delivered

Library Items

EDR, Passport, Vulnerability Response and Auto Apps arrive as Library Items assigned to devices, so a paid add-on lights up in the same console.

04
The identity app

Iru Access

Carries device-bound passkeys and reports device health to Workforce Identity, so sign-in can require a known, managed Mac, iPhone, iPad or PC.

Start with the fleet — how much is Apple — then decide which of the five add-ons earn their licence.

Track 02 · Buying guides

Buy it like you’ve done this before

The procurement playbook TechBag runs with IT buyers — steps, licensing cheat-sheet, and the pitfalls that cost quarters.

01

Count devices by platform

Endpoint products are licensed per device by platform, so split the fleet into Mac, iPhone and iPad, Windows and Android before you ask for a quote.

02

Check the Windows and Android fit

Windows must run 11 24H2 or later, Autopilot profiles are still assigned in Intune, and Android must be company-owned work profile on version 14 or later.

03

Choose the add-ons you will use

EDR and Vulnerability Management each carry their own per-device licence; Identity counts monthly active users, and Compliance counts frameworks plus seats.

04

Use the 14-day trial

Endpoint Management, EDR, Vulnerability Management and Workforce Identity offer a 14-day trial; Compliance Automation and Trust Center need a demo.

05

Settle hosting and support

Pick a US or EU tenant, since there is no India region, and note that support runs 24/5, Sunday 22:30 to Saturday 01:00 UTC, with a 99.9% uptime commitment.

06

Get it priced in rupees

Iru publishes no price and contracts are annual, billed annually. TechBag scopes devices, MAUs and frameworks and quotes the total in INR with GST.

Every Iru product is quote-only on annual contracts: per device by platform for Endpoint Management, EDR and Vulnerability Management, per monthly active user for Workforce Identity, and per framework plus seats for Compliance Automation. TechBag gets the quote itemised in INR with GST.

Five pitfalls that cost buyers quarters

1

Trusting an old per-device price

Third-party sites still list an older per-Mac and per-mobile price. Iru’s own pricing has been quote-only since at least September 2025, so get a quote.

2

Assuming full Windows and Android

Windows below 11 24H2 cannot enrol, and Android has no fully managed, kiosk or personal BYOD mode. Mixed fleets may still need a second tool.

3

Expecting Mac-grade EDR on Windows

On Windows the EDR scans files in Detect mode and does not quarantine automatically. Plan other protection for Windows devices that need it.

4

Missing the tenant upgrade deadline

Older tenants must move to the Iru platform by 1 December 2026, when the previous brand is deprecated. Check the upgrade path before renewal.

5

Reading compliance as Indian coverage

Compliance Automation lists SOC 2, ISO and NIST frameworks but nothing for CERT-In, DPDP, RBI or SEBI. Indian obligations need their own work.
