ABOUT

A studio that produces companies, from Istanbul.

Thoth was founded in Istanbul in 2025. The aim was simple: stop leaving the transformation of good ideas into companies to chance. Bring team, capital and method under one roof, and do it again and again.

STORY

Why did we build a studio?

We spent years founding companies, shipping products and growing teams. Each time, we noticed we were solving the same problems from scratch: infrastructure, legal, first hires, design system, growth experiments. Every company walked the same road again.

In the same period, AI fundamentally changed the limits of what small teams could do. A team of three, with the right tools, could deliver the work of ten.

When those two observations met, Thoth was born: a venture studio that builds the repetitive parts once and reuses them in every company, puts AI at the center of how it works, and does it from Istanbul, opening out to the region.

In our first year we launched two products: Sakla.co and ThothVPN. More are on the way.

DIRECTION

Mission

To bring capital and talent together and partner with co-founders to build the best ideas into great companies.

Vision

To be the region’s reference venture studio: the birthplace of B2B and B2C SaaS companies that emerge from Turkey and neighboring markets and compete at global scale.

PRINCIPLES

Six principles. Each backed by a habit.

  1. Customer first, idea second.

    No idea moves forward without talking to users. We put our resources into proven problems, not ideas we happen to like.

  2. Speed is a value.

    Weekly releases, daily decisions. We ship and learn instead of waiting for perfect.

  3. When the data says no, we stop.

    Dropping an idea isn’t failure; it’s proof the process works.

  4. We build for years.

    If it isn’t a business we can carry for years, it doesn’t enter the studio.

  5. The user’s data belongs to the user.

    We keep no logs, we export data in one click, we never sell lists.

  6. Everyone can read it, everyone can use it.

    Our products ship with accessible, multilingual and honest interfaces.

NAME

Why Thoth?

Thoth is the ancient Egyptian god of writing, knowledge and invention: the figure who records ideas, brings them into order and brings forth the new. That is exactly what a studio does: it takes an idea, disciplines it and turns it into a product. The sun in our logo stands for the birth of every new company.

TEAM

Co-founders

We’re at the table as co-founders in every new company: in weekly meetings, in the first customer calls, in the hard decisions.

LOCATION

Why Istanbul?

Between two continents, at the center of a market of 85 million, within the same flight distance of Europe and the Middle East. Strong engineering talent, a rapidly digitizing economy and SaaS markets that remain largely untouched. The right place to become the region’s company-building hub.
