Engineers first, agency second

Guardino Technologies is a digital growth agency with engineering discipline. One team in Istanbul runs brand and creative, web and e-commerce, performance ads, social media, SEO and GEO, and marketing automation for brands in Turkey, the DACH region, the Gulf and the United States.

Where does Guardino Technologies come from?

Guardino Technologies started as an engineering company. We built a DNS-based security service, guardino.ai, and commerce platforms for brands we distribute and own. Running those operations every day taught us what a store actually needs: fast pages, clean data, honest measurement and automation that takes the repetitive work.

Over time that stack became an agency offer. The people who design also build and run the ads, so a question about a campaign reaches the person who set it up. Robots handle content scheduling, ad adjustments, customer messages and operations; the team spends its time on strategy, creative and engineering.

Our team works from Istanbul, and the company is registered in Wyoming, USA. Turkey is our first market. We also serve clients in Europe, the Gulf and the United States, in Turkish, English, German and Arabic.

Who is behind the company

Hakan Kaynak, Founder

Hakan Kaynak is the founder of Guardino Technologies and of guardino.ai, the company's DNS-based security service. The agency offer grew out of the commerce and security operations the company runs for itself, and the team works from Istanbul. He wrote the five-part series on this blog about agency or in-house marketing: the growth curve, the real cost, measurement, brand equity and the hybrid model.

What we hold to

  • No intermediaries

    We do not rent platforms or share themes. Payment, shipping, invoicing and ad platforms connect directly through their APIs, so nothing sits between you and your customers.

  • The client owns the data

    One database, exportable at any time. When an engagement ends, code, content, accounts and documentation go with you in full.

  • Repetitive work goes to robots

    Content scheduling, ad adjustments, customer messages and operations sync run on our own servers. People do strategy, creative and engineering.

  • Every decision is measured

    A report every Monday at 08:00, a strategy meeting every month, a review every quarter. We state the 30 to 45 day ad learning period up front, and we call targets what they are: management goals.
