Every enterprise contract I’ve signed in the last two years has the same clause. “Vendor will not use Customer Data to train machine learning models.” Sometimes it’s a paragraph. Sometimes it’s a whole section. The language varies but the intent is identical: don’t feed our production data into your AI. I get it. I sign the same clause as a vendor. But here’s what’s been bothering me: that clause is a promise, not an architecture.

Writing test cases sounds simple until you're actually doing it. You read a requirement, try to figure out what "done" even means for it, write out steps, realize you missed three scenarios, go back, revise, and by the time you feel okay about it, the sprint has moved on without you. This happens to every team working at any real scale. It is just what manual test case creation costs you, and it is the problem autonomous test generation was supposed to solve at a category level.

At Ably we've been able to make a transformational change in how we build SDKs as a result of what's now possible with LLMs. In this post, I explain how.

Live from Snowflake Summit '26, tech leaders from around the globe gathered to discover how the world’s most innovative companies are making AI real for business. But few sessions delivered as much raw, practical insight as the one presented by Frankie Woodhead, Chief Product & Technology Officer at Thrive Learning. Heading up a fast-growing, £20m ARR LearnTech business that serves over 500 global customers and 5 million users, Woodhead didn't give a standard product pitch.

Finance leaders are operating in one of the most demanding macro environments in recent memory. Interest rates are moving faster than most models anticipated, reshaping the cost of capital almost overnight. Supply chain fragility has also turned working capital management into a moving target, and geopolitical uncertainty is changing how you plan for the future. Yet for many finance functions, the analytics stack hasn't kept pace with that urgency.

As AI-aided software development lifecycles pick up speed, performance teams are left with the familiar challenge of too much work, too few specialists, and results that take too long to analyze. Over the past year, Tricentis NeoLoad has shipped capabilities designed to address each of these problems directly. What started with Augmented Analysis accelerating root cause identification grew into a fully connected Model Context Protocol (MCP) architecture.

The most dangerous multilingual AI failure is a fluent output that feels native enough to trust, but is wrong enough to mislead.

How an agroindustrial leader in Latin America unified ERP across 19 countries.

In fast-moving markets, interoperability means you’re never trapped by yesterday’s decisions.

There is a specific kind of confidence that comes with deploying software. Not just “the tests passed” confidence, but the kind that comes from knowing the services your application depends on still behave the way you expect them to. Preserving that integrity becomes harder as systems grow, teams move faster, and AI agents become active participants in delivery workflows.
