The Beyond Capture Podcast
Beyond Capture is a podcast by Umony, hosted by CEO Dean Elwood, exploring how firms can leverage the vast amounts of data they capture and transform them into a powerful asset.
Umony provides capture, archiving and AI-native surveillance solutions to help enterprises navigate governance and regulatory challenges. Featuring Chief Compliance Officers, regulatory compliance experts and industry leaders, we discuss how to move beyond data collection and transform compliance into a proactive and strategic function.

Moving from Implementation to Intent
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Beyond Capture, Dean Elwood, CEO of Umony, and Alan Charbonneau, CTO, cover a lot of ground on where AI is actually heading, and what it means for the people in its path.
Which jobs are genuinely at risk and which are more protected than people assume? Why might bureaucracy and regulation prove a more durable barrier than human intelligence? And why did white-collar and technical roles go first, when nobody expected them to?
The conversation also takes in what we lose when technology optimises away the social texture of everyday interactions, recursive self-improvement, the GPU supply crunch, whether frontier model companies have a sustainable business model at all, and the governance headache facing any large organisation trying to keep up.
On the software side, UI remains the last genuinely hard problem, the cost of code is heading towards zero, and the developers who will thrive are the ones willing to become architects rather than coders.
