1. 01

   A failed measurement never looks like a real one

   When a call fails, it is recorded as a failure, left out of the totals and retried. It is never counted as zero.

2. 02

   Every guard is tested by breaking it

   Each check that protects a fact or a number is mutation-tested: we break the code on purpose and confirm the test fails.

3. 03

   Pages are rendered at build time

   AI crawlers don't run JavaScript. The text, the facts and the structured data are in the HTML they fetch.

4. 04

   Privacy at the edge

   In GoTrack, video stays in the store: images are analysed on a device there, and only product events reach the cloud.

• GOTONOM · GoTrack lab note

  Screen reaction time, measured

  30 Sep 2026

  From GoTrack's product decision to the screen's acknowledgement: median 0.35 s with one product on screen and 0.51 s with two, over 24 measured fires in a test setup. The time from pickup to recognition is not included.

  How GeoMono measures AI visibility

  A failed measurement is not a finding about the brand: an engine that did not answer leaves the denominator, is recorded and is retried, never counted as "did not mention you".

Who is Atakan Özalan?

Atakan Özalan, known online as Ezagor, is studying computer engineering in Istanbul, Türkiye, while he works. He is Co-founder & CTO of three companies: GOGOGO LLC, GOTONOM Yazılım Teknolojileri A.Ş. and GeoMono. His name is also written Atakan Ozalan, and his personal site is atakanozalan.com.

Which companies did Atakan Özalan co-found, and what is his role?

Atakan Özalan co-founded three companies and is Co-founder & CTO of all three: GOGOGO LLC (Newark, Delaware), co-founded with his brother Okan Özalan; GOTONOM Yazılım Teknolojileri A.Ş. (Istanbul), co-founded with Okan Özalan and Öncü Berber; and GeoMono (geomono.com), an independent company with different founding partners.

Who is Ezagor?

Ezagor is Atakan Özalan's online name, used since 2007, the years he ran his own Metin 2 game server in primary school. His first computer is a separate, earlier date: he started using computers in 2002, at four. ezagor.com is the handle's own site; atakanozalan.com is the professional one. Ezagor is not Zagor, the Italian comic-book character.

When did you start coding?

Four years old, in 2002: I taught myself to install Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and played it for years without knowing the language on the screen. Strategy first, then scripts. By primary school I was running my own Metin 2 PvP server and editing items in software for it; the first money of my life came from machines. From 2015 to 2016, in high school, I wrote XML / AIML for the menu flows and conversational content of Turkcell BiP Messenger. The through-line has been the same since age four: make machines work for you, then make them collaborators.

What were you doing before GOGOGO?

Working while studying computer engineering, which I'm still doing. From 2015 onward I lived inside chatbots: AIML at Turkcell BiP Messenger, then years of conversational workflows across Facebook Messenger, Telegram, and WhatsApp, plus product management on whatever else needed shipping. In 2021, for my university project, I built an AR marketplace on Google Glass 2: a working demo in which a phone-user could hire a glass-wearer in another city for hands-on errands (shopping, navigation, cargo). The Turkey-buyer / Paris-luxury-runner pairing was one scenario in it. Somewhere in the university years I also wrote an AI-driven racing game in the spirit of Need for Speed. GOGOGO's agent stack is the direct continuation of all of that work.

What do you actually build day to day?

Multi-agent orchestration, retrieval pipelines, evals, and production LLM systems. In practice: the code behind Goddo at GOGOGO, behind GoVista, GoPeople and GoTrack at GOTONOM, and behind GeoMono's AI-answer measurement, plus the internal observability and eval tooling that lets us ship them with confidence.

What stack do you use?

Next.js 16 + TypeScript on the web; Python + FastAPI for agent backends; Claude and OpenAI through the Vercel AI Gateway; FAISS plus a cross-encoder reranker for retrieval; Postgres and Redis for state; OpenTelemetry into Grafana for observability; Railway + Cloudflare for deploy and edge. See the Toolkit section for the full list.

What programming languages do you use?

I've shipped real production projects in thirteen languages: C, C++, C#, Python, Java, JavaScript, SQL, PHP, Swift, Kotlin, VB.NET, Assembly, MATLAB. Today most of my work is Python and TypeScript with SQL underneath. The older languages stay sharp because legacy systems at customer sites still run on them.

Are you hiring?

We're growing the engineering team in Istanbul: senior backend, applied AI/ML, and platform. If you've shipped multi-agent or retrieval systems in production, email me directly.

How do I contact you?

Email ata@gogogollc.com. I read founder mail myself; usual response time is one business day. For company-level partnership questions, info@gogogollc.com also lands on my desk.
