Massive scale. At your service.
The Turn infrastructure starts with enormous capacity that’s ready to handle the future of digital advertising. Building on a combination of open-source and proprietary technologies, we’ve engineered our platform to meet steep standards for redundancy, horizontal scalability, and operational efficiencies. Strategically located data centers around the globe keep our network close to geo-specific data, so our products enable user profiles and advertising auctions to interact with minimal latency. In fact, ad exchange partners tell us we have the highest response rate in the industry.
All the data you need.
Massive capacity means we can store the most complete and the most recent data available. The Turn platform currently stores almost 1.2 billion stable and anonymous user profiles with their history—site visits, time of visits, frequency, recency, and relative velocity—before and after every single impression. These profiles are replicated and kept consistent globally, and are available in real time for analysis, modeling, and action. Thanks to full integration with transaction-level data from the industry’s leading vendors—as well as with our clients’ own CRM and other data systems—we can maintain an up-to-the-minute snapshot of each user in your target audience.
All of this information is handled according to the strictest privacy standards. We never ingest Personally Identifiable Identification (PII) information. Instead we assign anonymous IDs, creating anonymous but distinguishable online information.

Intelligence and insight.
What good is data if you can’t put it to work? The Turn platform uses intelligent learning algorithms to process—in real time—the large amounts of data that flows through our system, enabling more effective planning, more precise campaign management, and more effective results. Coupled with our low-latency infrastructure, these powerful algorithms make blazing-fast decisions and provide instantaneous feedback about audiences, reach, lookalikes, and the likelihood that a user will respond to a specific creative. Also in real time are graphical reports on win rates, performance indicators, and other insights into campaign management—updated with information from each new impression.
Open for partnership.
Turn’s platform is integrated with best-of-breed providers from across the ecosystem, uniting data from leading providers and integrating with the leading ad exchanges. Our open standards–based platform and well-defined APIs enable partners to build their own solutions and custom services. We have documented file-based, pixel-based, and web-based APIs for ingesting data, exporting data, and manipulating metadata, making our enormous data warehouse available—and actionable—according to the specific needs of your business.
