The demo worked. Then real users arrived, and now it falls over on a busy day, nobody knows when it breaks, and every new feature snaps something else. This is the most common — and most fixable — situation I get called into.
I go through the codebase and infrastructure and give you a written list of what's actually dangerous, ranked. Not a rewrite pitch — often most of it is fine.
Security holes, data-loss risks, and the bugs that silently lose orders or sign-ups. These go first, before anything cosmetic.
Automated tests and deploy checks, so a broken change gets caught before your customers see it.
Monitoring and error alerts, so you learn about problems from a notification instead of an angry email.
Every project I run ships behind automated gates: type checks, security scans, dependency audits, accessibility and colour-contrast checks, and tests that must pass before a deploy is allowed. On this very site, a deploy was recently blocked because a new vulnerability appeared in a dependency overnight — that's the gate doing its job. I'm not selling you a process I don't use myself.
See the work →Almost never. A rewrite is usually the expensive answer to a problem that a week of hardening solves. If I do think a rewrite is right, I'll show you the reasoning and the cost of both paths.
Yes — that's most of this work. I'll audit it, tell you honestly what's salvageable, and give you a plan with an estimate.
Very common now, and usually fixable. AI-built code tends to work for the happy path and skip the error handling, tests, and security — which is exactly the list this service covers.
An audit is typically a few days. The fixes depend on what's found, but most products reach a genuinely stable state in 2–4 weeks.
If you want. Some clients keep me on a monthly retainer, others take the hardened codebase and run it themselves. Both are fine.
Tell me what's breaking and what you're worried about. I'll tell you what I'd look at first — and whether you actually need help.
