8 bold predictions for 2026 covering AI incumbents, GTM transformation, pricing shifts, hardware, voice AI, and the return of “Good Quests.”
Solid list of predictions. The consolidation point stands out to me. Companies are trying everything right now, but that can't last forever.
Also excited to see more focus on AI solving real problems instead of just chasing hype. Should be an interesting year.
The pricing shifts prediction is the one I'd watch closest. Per-seat is dying but most companies will cling to it for another 18 months because usage-based is harder to forecast internally. The transition will be messier than anyone predicts.
