Disruption map
As of 2026 — the evidence

The disruption has begun

The end of the moats
Code is replicable. Vibe-coding platforms produce in days what enterprise teams built in months.
Intermediaries become transparent
AI agents bypass marketplaces and platforms. Reports of AI-agent traffic point to rapid growth.
The SaaS meltdown
Major companies have publicly reconsidered large software contracts. Per-seat pricing is under pressure.
Agent-to-agent economy
Buyer AIs negotiate with seller AIs. No longer in the future, but on checkout pages.

Code is replicable. Vibe-coding platforms produce in days what enterprise teams built in months.

Intermediaries become transparent

AI agents bypass marketplaces and platforms. Reports of AI-agent traffic point to rapid growth.

The SaaS meltdown

Major companies have publicly reconsidered large software contracts. Per-seat pricing is under pressure.

Agent-to-agent economy

Buyer AIs negotiate with seller AIs. No longer in the future, but on checkout pages.

Our approach

Five fields in which we re-position you

Business model

A business-model audit against the 7 core principles of disruption. Identifying the risk per revenue stream. A recommendation: close, protect, rebuild.

Marketing & sales

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), direct-to-customer strategies, briefing-first funnels. Migration away from purely paid reach towards an AI-recommendable brand structure.

Platforms & data

Data strategy: first-party data architecture, your own corporate LLM (RAG), selection of API/MCP interfaces, building feedback loops.

Customer relationships

Rethinking the customer journey: where AI service is better (24/7, multilingual, instant), where the human stays indispensable (trust, complexity, empathy).

Internal processes & team

Process analysis, quick-win automation, skills building, change management, AI Act governance, pilot cycles with clear impact measurement.

Strategic companionship

Ongoing sparring for leadership, iteration of the roadmap, continuous adjustment to market movements. No one-off projects — a journey.

Disruption map

How industries are shifting

Tourism

Old moat: booking and review platforms. How it falls: AI travel agents bypass the platform and book directly. What remains: experience quality, multilingualism, local stories.

Media & publishing

Old moat: reach and editorial selection. How it falls: AI summarises sources directly, without sending the reader to the site. What remains: original research, brand trust, the curator's voice.

B2B & e-commerce

Old moat: complex procurement processes. How it falls: buyer AIs negotiate with seller AIs. What remains: first-party data, compliance, logistics, trust.

Enterprise SaaS

Old moat: per-seat licences, deep integration. How it falls: workforces shrink, agents replace users. What remains: the data core, APIs, compliance.

Marketplaces & platforms

Old moat: network effects, commission. How it falls: AI agents access provider APIs directly — platforms become transparent. What remains: payment, trust, physical logistics.

Consulting & services

Old moat: expertise as a bottleneck. How it falls: AI democratises standard knowledge. What remains: strategic depth, accountability, trust, anonymised industry experience.
