AI ConsultingGlobal consumer-goods company

Correct answers up from 91.8% to 98%

I raised correct answers in a global consumer-goods company's 7-agent Microsoft Foundry workflow from 91.8% to 98% in replica testing by restructuring how its agents pass messages, with every prompt left unchanged.

  • 28s to 21saverage response time
  • 98 test runs per variant on a replica of the workflow
  • Average response time fell from 28 to 21 seconds
  • Found and fixed a silent bug sending an empty message to every agent

AI AgentsGlobal testing company

A 3-agent sales assistant, live in Microsoft Teams

I helped a global testing company's developer ship a 3-agent sales assistant to Microsoft Teams, after a 61-second sequential run made it too slow, by running the three agents in parallel (5 to 10 seconds combined).

  • Livein Microsoft Teams
  • Three agents search SQL, SharePoint, and the web
  • Parallel agents demo built in Python and C#
  • Running end to end in Microsoft Teams
8automations mapped

AI ConsultingFamily-run real estate appraisal business

8 automations mapped in one session

I mapped 8 automations for a family-run real estate appraisal business in a paid 1-hour consulting session, starting with a report flow it runs 60 to 75 times a month.

  • 60 to 75report runs a month, first to automate
  • A business running 30 to 45 appraisals a month
  • A written automation plan delivered after the session
  • First target: the report flow it runs 60 to 75 times a month

Working with Frankie was incredibly helpful. He gave me clear, practical guidance on how to automate large portions of my workflow, saving me countless hours of research and trial and error. His advice was easy to understand, actionable, and has made a real difference in how I work. If you're looking for AI consulting, I can't recommend Frankie highly enough.

Kyle E.Real Estate Appraiser · AI Consulting Client

I've taken many courses throughout my career, and I'm happy to say that this has been the best course I've taken so far. What makes it stand out is the customized support and guidance from Frankie, who is an Azure MVP and extremely knowledgeable not only about Azure AI agents, but also about the Azure platform as a whole. Frankie is generous with his time, genuinely invested in helping students succeed, and makes sure you get the real value from the course.

Abdallah B.Energy Data Analyst · Azure AI Agent Accelerator

If you're confused about where to start with Agentic AI or Microsoft Foundry, this course will clear the fog. It covers end-to-end components with enough depth to build and deploy a real AI agent, and the structured lessons make it easy to follow along at your own pace with code samples.

Jignesh N.Sr. Software Engineer · Azure AI Agent Accelerator

It was an amazing experience. Frankie is an excellent trainer who explains complex concepts in a very clear and approachable way. I genuinely looked forward to every session because I learned so much each time.

Maria B.R&D Scientist · Training and Consulting Client

You always have a framework to fall back on. Week one, I had a framework. Week two, I had a framework. And at the end, I'm actually building something that can work.

Jefferson B.Financial Research Analyst · Azure AI Agent Accelerator

I learned about some permissions, roles and security setup required for real production deployment. This crucial part is mostly missing or rarely explained in most of the YouTube videos.

Jignesh N.Sr. Software Engineer · Azure AI Agent Accelerator

Thank you, Frankie! Your course, and the interactions with you, had a very positive impact on my work.

Maria B.R&D Scientist · Training and Consulting Client

Frankie's course always starts by explaining the concepts from a bird's-eye view, which I found very helpful for understanding the overall process.

Sooyeon K.Beta Cohort Student · Azure AI Agent Accelerator

After going through the course, the biggest change was having access to an expert and being able to get support through messaging, which gave me much more clarity and confidence.

Tejwant K.Beta Cohort Student · Azure AI Agent Accelerator

After completing the course, I now have clarity on where to start. I would definitely recommend this course to my friends and colleagues.
