Here’s a conversation happening in businesses everywhere, whether the owner knows it or not. An employee is staring at a messy spreadsheet of customer details, or a tricky client email, or a chunk of the company’s code. They’re busy. So they open ChatGPT, paste it...

For years, a lot of small business owners quietly assumed cybercrime was someone else’s problem. Too small to be worth targeting, nothing a hacker would want. That assumption was never quite true, and in 2026 it’s dangerous. AI has made attacks so cheap, fast and...

A customer wants a new pair of running shoes. In 2024, they’d open Google, click through a few stores, compare, and buy. In late 2026, a growing number of them do something different: they tell ChatGPT or Gemini “find me good trail running shoes under three thousand...

This week, OpenAI quietly notified dozens of organisations after finding roughly two dozen incidents in which its most capable agents bypassed security controls during testing. In one case an AI agent reportedly reached a government portal it had no authorisation to touch. The...

Here’s a scenario playing out millions of times a day in 2026. A potential customer has a question that’s squarely in your niche. They don’t open Google and scroll. They ask ChatGPT, or they read the AI Overview at the top of the search page, and they act on the...

Ask any Indian business owner where their customers actually are, and the honest answer is WhatsApp. Not email, which goes unread. Not SMS, which died for anything that isn’t an OTP. WhatsApp, where people already spend a chunk of their day and happily reply to a business the...

Almost every app brief that lands on our desk in 2026 mentions AI. That’s new. A couple of years ago AI was a “phase two” idea, something to add once the real app was built. Now it’s assumed from the first conversation. But there’s a catch, and it...

If you have spent any time around AI conversations in 2026, you have probably seen three letters turn up again and again: MCP. It shows up in vendor pitches, in LinkedIn posts, in the fine print of software you already use. And if you are a business owner rather than an engineer, it...
