Onwards and upwards!

Studied and trusted by EMEA’s learning leaders, the 2026 9-Grid™ for Learning Systems is out today. 

The research shows that the market is growing but uncertainty and complexity remain; nevertheless, vendors are continuing to focus on AI-enabled functionality.

Revealing the market and solution trends in the learning systems market, the 2026 9-Grid™ report shows that:

- While AI is the top priority for the coming year – alongside skills, according to Digital Learning Realities 2025 – staples such as compliance and regulatory training are still critically important but have ceded the spotlight to AI due to the market-wide effectiveness of their delivery in modern learning. 
- The proliferation of AI sees face-to-face, cohort-based learning achieve premium status, with the research noting that “…leadership judgement, surgical precision, craftsmanship, [and] complex negotiation” remain capabilities that need observation and social interaction.

Fiona Leteney, Senior Analyst at Fosway Group, commented on the report’s learning experience insight: "It’s official: The LXP as a standalone category of learning system is finally behind us. Organisations still care deeply about the learning experience, but what used to be differentiators like personalised recommendations, intuitive UX, seamless content access, are now baseline expectations. AI is accelerating this shift, and even potentially transforming the traditional ‘Netflix style’ front door of learning into adaptive, conversational experiences where AI coaches and tutors guide learners in real time."

Myself and Fiona Leteney will take questions on the research in a live online ‘Ask the Analyst’ session on 19 March 2026 at 3pm GMT. Register for your free place here.

There are other market analysis models, but there’s only one 9-Grid™. Examine it today to accelerate your buying knowledge.

Thanks for the great conversation about purpose, sleep, exercise, and happiness. I loved it Eric Bomyea - keep doing awesome work.

You don’t need a perfect sleep routine. You need portable anchors.

You already know the sleep science: 

Same bedtime. 
Same wake time. 
Dark room. 
No screens. 
Total consistency.

But your life moves.

Travel. 
Clients. 
Team dinners.
New beds. 
Different time zones.

So when the routine breaks, you feel behind.

In my conversation with Robin Daniels, he shared two anchors he protects wherever he is:

Sleep as a priority — even when it’s imperfect.
Daily physical regulation — move the stress out.

Two commitments that can travel with you. That reframed how I think about living dynamically, not perfectly. 

If your day goes sideways tomorrow, what would you still protect?

Co-founder at Voi | Angel Investor | Forbes 30 under 30

I am on a mission to improve the world using technology with a focus on building consumer products using cutting edge modern technology stacks.

I Co-Founded Voi which is a leading urban mobility company creating a system of electrically powered scooters around city centers to provide an affordable, sustainable, and exhilarating way to commute while helping people to reduce their carbon footprint and cities to have a more sustainable transportation network. Voi has raised over $300 million from Balderton Capital, Creandum, Project A, Local Globe, and many top angel investors.

The best “hack” for building companies:
work with the same killers over and over again.

This is Filip.

We met on day one at KTH.
He would ace every exam and somehow run university life at 200% speed.

We then spent years building Voi together.
He was my technical cofounder who made the infra scale like crazy.

Now he’s joined me again at Pit.

Same pattern:
- High trust
- Zero ego
- Clear lanes
- Long history of doing hard things together.

Everyone talks about “founder–market fit”.
You should think more about founder–founder fit.

The people you build with in your 20s will define your 30s and 40s.

Most of my “luck” is just working with the same exceptional people year after year.

No alternative text description for this image

I am so glad to welcome Filip Lindvall to the Pit team.

He is truly a generational engineer and one of the most talented people I have worked with.

Year after year he remains low-ego, deeply curious, and gives it his all. 

This started all the way back in the early days when we met at KTH, and all throughout building Voi Technology together to the incredible company it's become.

Working with the same exceptional people over and over again means deep trust and deep alignment.

More top talent to be announced the coming weeks!

Thrilled to welcome Dexter (Fredrik J.) to the Pit team as our founding designer.

Dexter was one of Voi Technology’s first employees and our very first designer. He built the entire design and brand from the ground up.

The Voi coral everyone knows? That was Dexter. Every pixel, every interaction, every detail that made Voi feel like Voi came from his work.

He is one of those rare designers who deeply understands what users need before they do, and he ships fast without compromising quality.

Working with Dexter again means we get to move at the speed we did in the early Voi days.

Deep trust, deep alignment, and zero time wasted on misalignment.

The team is coming together.

Excited to welcome Fredrik Olovsson to the Pit team as a founding engineer!

Fredrik was Senior Principal Engineer at Klarna where he led major AI workstreams like the Shopping Assistant. He was recognized as "the glue that holds the team together" while contributing across engineering, analytics, product, and design.

What makes Fredrik different is that he thinks across the entire stack, not just code. He understands product, talks to customers, and knows how to ship under pressure.

Before Klarna, he co-founded several companies and raised capital. He knows what it takes to build something from nothing. That founder mentality combined with world-class engineering execution is exactly what we need.

The kind of person who can bridge engineering, product, and customers without losing speed or quality.

Excited to have him on the team.

Last week after a customer meeting, something happened that felt like the future.

A customer gives us feedback live.  
We transcribe it.  
A coding workflow picks it up.

By the time we’re back at the office, PRs are already open addressing it.

Agentic review, iteration, shipped.

No ticket triage.  
No manual spec writing.  
No “we’ll prioritize this next sprint.”

The loop from feedback to code just collapsed.
It’s about compressing the distance between reality and product.

When that loop approaches zero, software starts improving itself.

At Pit this just one of many signs we’re seeing of how our stack self-improves software.

Am getting these multiple times a week despite bumping our limits.

Team is deploying so fast now it’s insane, code is being written literally every hour of the day, even when we sleep and eat.

The most elite engineers who really understand how to leverage these tools are producing outcomes unfathomable just 12 months ago. 

A few weeks ago I said it’s eating junior work, now even really senior engineers are doing less manual writes and more agent orchestration than ever.

What it means for our customers is that we take them from experimentation and prototyping to deploying real systems that touches real data and produces real ROI at a speed neither them or us understand, all while maintaining high quality long-term maintainable code.

Back-office automation is where the serious money is.

Tons of large legacy enterprises are in desperate need of help here. They are slow moving, no longer attract top talent, live in innovators dilemma, and feel AI anxiety.

They have dozens of internal operational workflows that haven’t changed in years, scattered with shadow IT and operational inefficiencies all over the place. 

Startups who can operate well here and remove operational bottlenecks for large complex enterprise, have a shot at winning this. There are serious moats in having sticky software on the inside of these companies. The opportunities here are endless.
