Hello !
The latest edition of the Thoughtworks Technology Radar — volume 33 — is now available.
Dive in now.
In this edition we have 114 blips — of which more than half were related to AI. This is reflected in the themes for this volume:
— Infrastructure orchestration arrives for AI.
— The rise of agents elevated by MCP
— AI coding workflows
— Emerging AI antipatterns
This isn’t the first Radar to highlight AI’s impact on the industry, but it does capture a shift from early experimentation to maturing practices and increasing thoughtfulness about the opportunities and risks of this exciting but complex technology.
Alongside the Radar, there’s also some additional commentary so you can get even more from this edition and the key issues it raises:
— Macro trends in the tech industry | November 2025
— From vibe coding to context engineering: 2025 in software development
— Themes from Technology Radar Vol.33 [Podcast episode]
You can explore the Radar using our interactive tool. If you'd prefer to read it in full, you can download it as a PDF.
We hope you enjoy this edition — we certainly enjoyed putting it together; it prompted really fascinating conversations about technology and hope it does the same for you.
And remember: please do share it with friends and colleagues that you think will find it useful!
Best regards,
Rachel Laycock
