We see the same story every week
A founder builds an app with AI. It gets most of the way there, and then one of these starts happening.
Works in preview. Breaks when it's live
Blank screens, broken logins, and features that vanish on your real domain, usually from keys and settings the AI never set up.
Every fix breaks something else
Your app has outgrown what the AI can keep track of, so it patches symptoms and quietly undoes last week's work.
Your credits are burning
You're paying for prompt after prompt to re-fix the same bug, with no idea what the next change will cost.
Users might see each other's data
AI builders often leave database security switched off. In 2025, one missing safeguard exposed user data in 170+ Lovable apps.
Your secret keys are public
Stripe, OpenAI, or database keys sitting in code any visitor can read, so anyone can run up your bill or pull your data.
Payments and emails fail quietly
Customers pay but never get access, and sign-up or reset emails never arrive. Nobody tells you until they leave.
A written plan, not a vague opinion
- 01
What's broken
Every bug and fragile spot we find, traced back to the code that causes it.
- 02
What's a security risk
Exposed secrets, auth gaps, open database rules, and anything touching payments or user data.
- 03
What to fix first
A prioritized list, so you spend on what's blocking launch before what's nice to have.
- 04
Exactly how to fix it
Step-by-step fixes, including what to tell your AI so it fixes the problems.
- 05
A delivery call
We go through the report together and answer every question, so nothing is left to guess.

$497, and it comes off the fix
If you want us to fix it for you, the full $497 is credited toward the build. Either way the report is yours to keep, and any team (or your AI) can work from it.
Money back if it isn't useful. If the report doesn't help you on delivery, we refund the full $497.
Mutual NDA included. One checkbox at booking covers both sides, so there's no separate agreement to sign.

Before you book
What kinds of apps do you audit?
Web and mobile apps built with tools like Lovable, Bolt, Base44, Replit, Cursor, v0, and Claude Code, and the stacks they produce: React, Next.js, Supabase, Firebase, Node, Python, and more. If your stack is unusual, email us before you book.
What do you need from me?
Read access to your code (a GitHub invite is easiest) and a short walkthrough of what the app is supposed to do. We cover both on the kickoff call.
Is my code safe with you?
Yes. You accept a mutual NDA when you book, so your code and ideas are covered from day one without a separate contract. We only need read access, and you can revoke it the moment the audit is done.
What if the report isn't useful?
Tell us on the delivery call and we'll refund the full $497.
Do I have to hire you to fix it?
No. The report is written so you, your team, or your AI can act on it. If you do want us to fix it, the $497 comes off the build.
How long does it take?
5 business days from your kickoff call. We schedule the delivery call at the kickoff, so you know exactly when your report is coming.
