01
Security-first, not an afterthought
Auth, secrets management, OWASP Top 10, database access controls, and supply-chain checks are baked into every engagement — not bolted on at the end.
Rescue engineering for AI-built products
You vibe,
we harden.
AI got you to v0.1 in a weekend. Now the security holes are surfacing, the database can’t be trusted, and you own a codebase nobody fully understands. That’s the exact moment we start.

LovableBoltCursorReplitv0Claude Code
The only rescue team that fixes your code, your security, and your data.
Most rescue shops are generalist engineers. We combine senior full-stack, DevSecOps, and data scientists — the exact triad AI-built products need.
02
Data integrity is the unfair advantage
Almost no rescue shop pairs engineers with data scientists. We fix broken data models, restore row-level security, and make analytics and AI features trustworthy.
03
Keep what works, right-size the rest
We are not rebuilding a microservices cathedral. Preserve the working product surface, harden the foundation, and hand off a stack your team can actually maintain.
04
Senior-only delivery
No juniors billed at senior rates. You have been burned once by "it looks like it works" — every engagement is led by people who have shipped, scaled, and rescued real products.
The offer ladder
One path in, four ways to work together.
Everything starts with a free audit. Everything after is fixed-price — no open-ended bills.

Production Readiness Audit
A severity-ranked risk report, and an honest recommendation.

How we work
Clear stages.
Fewer surprises.
We stabilize first, then harden. That protects you early and makes the value obvious before the full rescue is complete.

Questions before starting
A few direct answers.
Ideally before it becomes an emergency. Founders usually call us around month three to six, when features start breaking each other or a security scare, fundraise, or first engineering hire forces the issue. The sooner, the cheaper the fix.
We say so. The free mini-audit exists to give an honest read before any money changes hands — if a rescue does not make sense for your situation, you walk away with a risk report and no obligation.
No. We keep what works. We preserve your product surface and functionality, harden the foundation underneath it, and right-size the stack so your team can maintain it — faster and cheaper than a ground-up rebuild.
Most rescue shops are generalist engineers who fix code. We pair senior full-stack engineering with DevSecOps and data science in one team — the two things AI-built apps break worst and founders least expect.
You own the codebase, documentation, and runbooks outright. Many customers continue with a fractional retainer for ongoing hardening, security reviews, and new-feature guardrails — but nothing is required.
Have a broken foundation?
Let’s find what’s breaking before it breaks you.
Start with a free mini-audit. We’ll flag the top production risks in your repo — no commitment, no spam.
