Hybrid Software will make its first appearance at Interpack 2026, where it will present new AI-driven innovations designed to help brand owners and packaging service providers streamline artwork management, automate production workflows, and improve operational efficiency.
Visitors to stand 8aB54 will see demonstrations of Smart PDF, a new solution developed for brand owners and prepress service providers. Smart PDF enables artwork compliance checks across the entire artwork management process, ensuring accurate, compliant, and high-quality printed packaging while accelerating time to market.
CLOUDFLOW Matches will also feature at the show. Matches is an AI-powered visual search engine for all packaging assets produced by a printer or trade shop, built around a proprietary and secure large language model (LLM). Many packages are similar but differ in key areas such as size, flavor, or language, so identifying jobs produced in the past with similar text, barcodes, and even image content helps ensure fast and accurate production of new ones.
Also on display will be Version 12 of Hybrid’s PACKZ PDF editor, now enhanced with AI-powered capabilities. The integrated AI tools are designed to make PACKZ operators more productive with an integrated support agent, and assistance with complex tasks like scripting and custom actions.
Hybrid Software’s next-generation color workflow solution, Colorspace, combines powerful automation with ColorLogic’s advanced color management. Trusted by converters worldwide, it streamlines complex color workflows and ensures precise and repeatable results across all print technologies.
Recently acquired software consultancy Conics will showcase jAImes, an AI-powered solution that automates the processing of customer orders and requests via email. By automating routine communication and order handling, jAImes helps customer service reps meet deadlines, reduce manual data entry, and get production orders to press quickly.
Hybrid Software’s artwork management business unit, Hybrid Brandz, will present the latest release of Artflow, its enterprise artwork management platform. The new version features enhanced project visibility, improved copy management capabilities, and new AI-powered tools designed to simplify compliance and artwork validation.
“Interpack is one of the most important events in the global packaging calendar, and it marks a significant milestone for Hybrid Software to exhibit for the first time,” said Guido Van der Schueren, Chairman of Hybrid Software. “At the show we are highlighting a new generation of AI-driven solutions designed to help brands and converters simplify complex processes and bring their products to market faster.”
