Business software predictions for 2026
Generative AI, extreme automation and autonomous systems: what we'll see next year.
2025 was the year AI stopped being "the future" and became an everyday tool. What's coming in 2026? These are our predictions based on what we're seeing in the market.
1. Generative AI in Daily Operations
Not just chatbots anymore. In 2026 we'll see AI that:

Opportunity
Companies that previously only sold locally now export. Systems must adapt.
6. Low-Code for Customization
End users will create their own:
Paradigm shift
"I want a field for X" will no longer require waiting for the vendor. The user adds it in minutes.
7. Cybersecurity as Standard
It's no longer a differentiator, it's a requirement:
What WON'T Change
