What is ITProGuru?
Dan Stolts is the Founder and Chief AI Officer of Just In Time AI, where he builds AI systems that do real operational work for paying customers, not demos. ITProGuru is his personal record of that build: what he is learning, what breaks, and what actually holds up in production, in public, as he learns it. Dan's IT career began in 1988 -- nearly four decades in the industry. For over a decade of that career he wrote ITProGuru for the IT community -- enterprise architecture, Windows Server, virtualization, and the practical stuff that shipped. At its peak this site reached 250,000 unique visitors a month. If something here once saved you a weekend, that was always the point, and it still is. I'm doing the same job again, new subject: teach first, sell never. Just In Time AI is the company where that work becomes real systems for real customers. ITProGuru is where I document how I get there -- how to get real work out of AI coding agents, what fails, and what is worth trusting in production. If you want the daily, bite-sized version of these lessons, I also post on @DanStolts-JitAI on YouTube. If you want to see the company doing this work for customers, that is Just In Time AI (jitai.co).
