About Recep Erdogan

I'm Recep Erdogan (Recep Erdoğan), founder and CEO of Out Plane, where AI agents deploy and run your software. I live in Istanbul.

My first job was in a data center when I was 14. At 19, I sold my first startup.

The first version of Out Plane failed. In January 2026, I changed it to focus on companies, and it started to grow. I built the platform, the console and Otto, our AI agent, by myself.

In November 2026, we launched Hangars, cloud machines for coding agents. We also run Day One, a community event in Istanbul. Out Plane is backed by Maza Ventures.

I write here about what I learn while building Out Plane. What worked, what broke and what I got wrong.

You can find me on X, LinkedIn and GitHub. My articles for Out Plane are on my author page.
