Top manufacturing trends for 2026
Tuesday, June 23, 2026 by Trey Abbe
Manufacturers have spent years trying to make warehouses of data behave like a single source of truth. They wrote custom connectors, maintained brittle API chains, and paid the tax every time a schema shifted or a vendor upgraded. Model Context Protocol, or MCP, is the first credible exit ramp from that grind. Rather than forcing every system to integrate with every oth...

Friday, June 19, 2026 by Avinash Tiwari
There's a contradiction playing out in the world of enterprise software.

Subscription apps are losing users faster than ever
Tuesday, June 16, 2026 by Richard Harris
More than a third of all annual app subscription cancellations happen within the first month.

Annual reactivation sits at about 5 percent overall, and it hardly moves by region or price tier. Monthly subscribers return at about four times ...
DomainTools announces real time threat feeds
Monday, June 15, 2026 by Brittany Hainzinger
Real time is a phrase that gets tossed around until it means very little. In astrophotography, real time lives in the interval between when a satellite intrudes on your exposure and when you decide to toss the frame. A feed is only as useful as the speed and relevance of what it delivers. Here, the feeds do not simply ping you with trivia. The automatic infrastructure m...

When Social Listening Becomes Social Surveillance
Wednesday, May 20, 2026 by Sameer Ahmed Khan
I want to tell you about two tools that do the exact same thing.
The first tool scans Facebook, X, and YouTube. It reads public posts. It analyzes them for sentiment, emotional tone, and trending patterns. It tells you what people feel, what they care about, and what they are saying about you.

How AI is causing app litter everywhere
Tuesday, April 21, 2026 by Trey Abbe
I've worked on systems that have been running for years, the kind you don't think about because they just work. No noise, no constant updates, no surprises.

That's a c...
