梃子 / てこ — lever, and the hand that moves it.

Human judgment. Machine speed. Outsized leverage.

Read on

Teko is the Japanese word for a lever: a small, well-placed force that produces a much larger result.

Teko applies the same principle to commerce operations. It learns how your team makes decisions, then executes those decisions continuously, across every product, at machine speed.

One operator can manage more, act faster and improve continuously—without adding proportional headcount.

The operator remains the source of judgment. Teko becomes the force that applies it.

Advertising operations

Ad management for Amazon sellers.

Teko runs advertising operations for other advertisers selling on Amazon — bid management, budget allocation, dayparting, and search-term optimization across Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, and Sponsored Display campaigns. Every decision reads margin first, so spend never scales a loss.

Break-even ceiling — every action below sits under it

Bids

Bid management

Continuous bid adjustment across every active campaign — tuned to contribution margin, not click cost alone.

Budget

Budget allocation

Spend moves toward what converts and away from what leaks margin, across the whole campaign portfolio.

Timing

Dayparting

Ad spend scales up and down by hour and by day, matched to the hours a product actually converts.

Keywords

Search-term optimization

Keyword harvesting and negative-keyword pruning, run against settled performance data.

Built on direct Amazon Advertising API access — every change written, logged, and verified through the official API.

Brand Analytics

What shoppers search — and what they buy together.

With Brand Registry access, Teko reads two Amazon Brand Analytics reports for your own brands, through the Selling Partner API — your brands only, never another seller's.

Read from your own Amazon Brand Registry through the Selling Partner API. Nothing here is real-time.

01

The operator teaches the system.

Teko learns the operator's judgment.

03

Teko applies that judgment autonomously.

The human remains the source of intent and accountability.

You stay in control

Reversible by default Every routine action has an undo window. Nothing is final.
Every action logged A complete audit trail — see exactly what Teko did, and why.
You set the guardrails Teko acts inside the limits you set. Bigger moves need approval.

Your data stays inside your workspace — isolated by design, never shared across accounts.

How an ad decision gets made

What Teko watches on your advertising, and how often.

  • HourlyBudget pacing and intraday delivery.
  • DailyACoS, ROAS, TACoS and new-to-brand share · ad anomalies · keyword harvest and negatives.
  • WeeklySearch-query share movement and margin headroom.
  • MonthlyFees re-pulled, so every break-even ceiling stays current.

Advertising performance is read on a two-week lag, so attribution is complete before anything acts on it. Nothing is checked faster than the Amazon data behind it can change.

A worked example · illustrative, not a customer result

  1. Cost on one keyword climbs to 38% ACoS. On its own that is not a verdict — spending hard can be right during a rank push.
  2. The margin check sets the ceiling: break-even on this product is 32%. Above that line, every ad-driven sale loses money.
  3. Rank tracking shows three weeks of raised spend with rank flat. The push never paid.
  4. Decision: negate the losing search term, move its budget to a keyword that converts.
  5. Executed through the Amazon Advertising API, inside the guardrails — capped, logged, verified applied, reversible.

Four checks, one decision. It reaches you as a single line in tomorrow's brief, reasoning attached — agree, or undo it in one tap.

Pricing

You pay for what Teko manages.

Teko's fee is tied to the products it actually runs — a share of revenue on managed products only, never a cut of the ones it doesn't touch.
