Perceptions & Reflections

A campaign can move between social, print, events and email several times. Most reporting splits it apart by medium. Measurement works better when it's organised around the initiative.

AI coding agents make another change feel almost free, but every push can start builds, deployments and paid services somewhere else. The AI subscription may be the cheapest part of the system.

A capable print business shouldn't have to become a software company before software can understand it. This is us properly introducing Gnaww.

Print APIs are becoming more useful just as MCP and AI agents change the interface again. The harder problem is giving software a shared way to understand what a printer can actually make.

AI providers can count every token, credit and tool call. What happens when an agent ignores instructions, runs ahead or spends that usage on work nobody asked it to do?

Print APIs and agent-ready catalogues are arriving. The harder job is turning incomplete customer intent into a specification producers can actually make.

Customers move between social, websites, workshops, events and printed things. Here is how we are using Bytes and our work with Tiger Darts to connect more of that journey without pretending to have perfect attribution.

My youngest opened a football game because he wanted to play football. The menus, rewards and systems got there first. There is a product-design lesson in that.

Jodrell Bank's value is not only in the science it produces. It is also in the questions it creates, and the lives those questions may quietly shape.

A weekend in Düsseldorf, a handful of group chats that would not stay aligned, and the problem every integration eventually runs into. Moving data between systems is the easy part. Keeping both sides in agreement is the hard bit.

Every few weeks someone declares the CTO role is finished. Ten years in, I think the opposite is true. AI is quietly exposing why the good ones always mattered.

The difference between a business you designed and one you simply ended up with. Why new software rarely closes the gap, and a low-tech way to see where the friction actually lives before you go looking for a platform to fix it.

AI and automation are helping businesses move faster, while quietly recreating the ownership and understanding problems we spent years learning how to solve. A look at operational debt, why it forms wherever nobody owns the whole, and what it actually takes to put right.

Ahead of FESPA Global Print Expo 2026 in Barcelona, we’re watching how print, data, automation, AI and physical-to-digital engagement are coming together.

Sometimes a product fails not because it was wrong, but because it arrived before the market was ready to understand it. That can still teach you a lot.

Jawwws was not built to be another generic consultancy. It exists to help ambitious businesses make complex technology, workflow, and product decisions more commercially useful.

AI is moving from theory to workflow in print. Here is where it genuinely helps, where it risks adding noise, and what commercially minded print businesses should focus on now.

AI-assisted development is turning implementation into a commodity. The real scarcity is shifting toward systems thinking, governance, and accountability. Most organisations aren’t ready.
