About me

Craig Stanley

Microsoft AI consultant and technical architect, based in Whitley Bay. Over the last few years I've delivered Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio agents, Microsoft Foundry (formerly Azure AI Foundry) work and governance for UK public sector and financial services organisations.

What interests me is the decision underneath the tool: what it costs, what it risks, and whether a small, transparent model can make it better. I write the methods up here and on Substack so anyone can use them.

I write this site to learn in public: explaining each idea simply is how I check I understand it. Why I write this site.
