Offcuts

Offcuts is a podcast and newsletter about commerce, culture and AI.

We explore how brands grow in a changing landscape. From shifting consumer behaviour to the rise of AI in digital work. It is part founder’s perspective, part field notes from inside the industry. We speak to founders, operators and technologists about what is working, what is changing and what is next. Expect sharp thinking, useful links and the occasional hot take. All grounded in what is actually happening. Not just what is trending.
