01 Vibe-code rescue
Fix the vibe-coded app that works on your screen but breaks for users.
You shipped something with Lovable, Bolt, v0, Cursor or Replit, got traction, and now you're scared it'll leak data or fall over. We audit it, tell you the truth in plain language, and make it production-ready, keeping what already works.
The audit is €299 (~$350), fixed, delivered in 48 hours, a keep-it-either-way diagnostic. Stacks we live in: Next.js, Supabase (RLS), Stripe, Vercel, Firebase. See pricing →

02 What we check
Five things that break in almost every vibe-coded app.
-
Auth & access control
Any user can often read or write another user's data by changing a parameter: missing row-level security, no server-side checks.
-
Payment theatre
A Stripe button that logs an event and shows "Thanks!" but never actually charges.
-
Secrets in the code
API keys and database strings committed to git history forever.
-
No error handling
Happy-path-only code that fails silently the moment real traffic hits it.
-
No observability or real environments
"Production" is a preview URL, and you learn about bugs from customer emails, not monitoring.

03 Plain definition
What "production-ready" actually means.
Production-ready means the app can be used by strangers you don't know, on devices you didn't test, without leaking data, crashing, or silently losing a payment. AI tools get you about 70% of the way there. The other 30% (security, error handling, environments, monitoring) is what keeps real users safe. That 30% is what we do.
04 Our approach
Keep what works. Rebuild what's dangerous.
You don't need a rewrite. The working UI, the design system, and the real business logic usually carry forward, often 30–50% of what you shipped. We replace the parts that put your users or your data at risk, and we tell you exactly which is which. Cleanup typically costs 20–40% of the original build and saves roughly 10x versus starting over.
05 How it works
Start with a fixed-price audit.
Good moments to audit: before launch, before fundraising (technical due diligence), when you can't add features anymore, or when performance starts to slip.
06 Why us
A named, real team, not a badge wall.
The loud players advertise "500+ projects" and "98% satisfaction." We can't and won't. What we can show: open-source plugins that prove we do exactly the production-grade work this needs: auth, integrations, headless architecture, clean error handling. Read the code before you trust us. And your code is handled like evidence: NDA by default, read-only repo access to start, any secret we touch rotated before handback.

This isn't hypothetical. Independent security researchers (OX Security, 2026) found exposed API routes and permissive access rules across popular AI builders, and a late-2025 audit found roughly 10% of Lovable apps had data-exposure vulnerabilities.
07 FAQ
Questions founders ask.
How do I fix my Lovable, Bolt, v0 or Replit app?
Start with an audit. We go through the five failure modes (auth, payments, secrets, error handling, observability) and hand you a written report of what's broken and what to fix first. Then we rescue it in a scoped, fixed-price engagement, keeping what already works.
Is my vibe-coded app secure enough to launch?
Often not without a check. The common gaps are missing access control (users reading each other's data), secrets committed to the code, and payment flows that don't actually charge. Independent audits in 2025–2026 found data-exposure issues in a meaningful share of AI-generated apps. The 48-hour audit tells you exactly where you stand.
Should I rebuild or fix my AI-generated app?
Usually fix. Keep the 30–50% that works (the UI, the design system, the real logic) and rebuild only the dangerous parts. A full rewrite is rarely necessary and rarely the cheapest path.
How much does it cost to fix or audit a vibe-coded app?
The audit is €299 (about $350) and is delivered in 48 hours. Most apps then take the €990 critical fix sprint (one week, audit fee credited). A full rescue is a scoped fixed price from €1,900, typically 20–40% of what the original build cost, far less than starting over.
What's the difference between vibe coding and real production engineering?
Vibe coding gets you a working demo fast. Production engineering makes it survive strangers, untested devices, and real money: security, error handling, environments, and monitoring.
If the rescue needs its interface redesigned, the same studio does that too, or start with the €490 UI/UX audit. See the design service →
