Lovable, Bolt, v0, Cursor, Replit — great for proving the idea. Then real users, payments and company data arrive, and the app needs security, reliability and someone accountable for production. That is where we come in.
The product you validated stays. The parts that would break under real users get rebuilt — in priority order, with every step agreed before it starts.
Four steps from first conversation to a launched, monitored product. No blanket rewrite, no work started before the findings are on the table.
Tell us what you built, which tools you used and where it stands today.
We review security, architecture, data and deployment, and report what must change before launch.
Fix the blocking issues in priority order — keeping the product behavior you already validated.
Ship to production with monitoring in place, then continue into maintenance or feature delivery.
Straight answers before any call — including the ones about rewrites and ownership.
Usually not. AI tools are good at producing a working product surface, and that validated behavior has value. We keep what works, replace what is fragile, and rebuild only the parts where the evidence shows a rewrite is cheaper than a repair — typically authentication, data access and deployment.
The common pattern: secrets committed to the repository, missing authorization checks behind the UI, no tests, unvalidated input, tangled data models and no real deployment or backup story. Independent analyses find security flaws in roughly half of AI-generated code — which is why our rescue starts with a security review, not with features.
Yes — that is the typical case. Many founders build the first version themselves with AI tools and bring us in when real users, payments or company data enter the picture. We explain findings in product terms, and every step is agreed in writing before it starts.
The assessment usually takes days, not weeks. Hardening depends on what the assessment finds — a focused launch-blocker pass often fits into a few weeks, while a deeper restructuring is planned in stages so you can keep demoing and testing throughout.
You choose: take the documented, stabilized codebase fully in-house, or continue with us through planned maintenance and feature delivery. Most clients keep a monthly engagement so the product keeps moving while they focus on the business.
Yes. The repository stays in your organization, the infrastructure runs on your accounts, and the documentation is written for whoever comes after us. No vendor lock-in — that is the point of a rescue.
We review the starting point, capacity and lawful technical access before committing to a rescue or takeover.
For software inherited from a previous developer or agency, start with a project takeover. For a product already in production that needs a long-term team, go straight to application maintenance.
