At Plingot, we’re starting the new year with a trend outlook – patterns and shifts we believe will shape the digital landscape in 2026 and beyond. These are trends we recognize from our daily work: questions and requirements from clients, recurring challenges, and developments discussed across the industry. Below are three trends we see as particularly influential in how digital solutions will be designed, built, and experienced in the coming years.

What is it really like to work as a developer at Plingot? We talked to two of our employees: a frontend developer and a backend developer, one who is new to the job and one who has been here for several years. We went through everything from office community to superpowers and challenges in the job. The result is an insight into the Plingot culture, where laughter and curiosity are just as important as the code.

AR-utveckling för företag har gått från framtidsvision till konkreta, lönsamma projekt — allt från utbildning och produktvisualisering till marknadsföring och kundservice. För att lyckas krävs ett affärsdrivet perspektiv från start: tydliga mål, användarcentrerad design och teknik som kan växa över tiden.
