In this episode of Double Tap, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece welcome Ryan Jones from Vispero to explore the 2026 release of JAWS, ZoomText, and Fusion. Ryan explains the transition towards cloud-connected accounts, AI features like Page Explorer and AI Labeller, and performance improvements for screen reader and magnification users.

The discussion dives into the complexity of global pricing models, the move toward subscription licensing, and the confusion surrounding home annual licences. Ryan also details how Page Explorer summarises web layouts, how AI Labeller revolutionises form accessibility, and why multi-line Braille displays such as the Monarch and DotPad are game-changing for blind users.

Privacy, enterprise needs, and future plans for cloud-based personalisation are also covered, alongside technical advice on hardware specs for JAWS and ZoomText.
