Code & Security Audit
A read of the actual codebase — what's fragile, what's a security risk, and what's quietly broken.

Inherited an app
that keeps breaking?
AI coding tools and quick contractors can get something working fast — and leave behind code nobody can safely change. I audit what's actually there, stabilize it, and get it back under control.
SIGNS YOU NEED THIS
Built fast.
Breaking just as fast.
Maybe it was built with an AI coding assistant, a freelancer who's gone quiet, or a previous dev shop. Either way, something changed — small updates now break unrelated features, nobody can explain how parts of it work, or you're afraid to touch it at all.
I start by reading the actual code, not just clicking around the app, so I know what's really wrong before I touch anything.
Every App Rescue starts with an audit, so you know what you're dealing with before paying for a fix.
WHAT A RESCUE INCLUDES
From broken
to back under control.
Most rescues move through these three stages, in this order.
Stabilization
Fix what's actively breaking first, so the app stops losing data or failing on your customers.

A written plan — patch it, rebuild the fragile parts, or replace it — with a fixed-price quote either way.

01
Audit
I read the code, check for security issues, and map what's actually there — fixed fee, quoted up front.
02
Stabilize
Patch what's actively broken so the app stops failing on real users while we plan the rest.
03
Decide & build
A fixed-price quote to fix the rest, rebuild the fragile parts, or start over — your call, with the facts in hand.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Can you work with code you didn't write?+
Yes — that's most of what App Rescue is. I read the existing codebase first, regardless of who or what built it, before touching anything.
What if the app was built with AI tools like Cursor, Lovable, or ChatGPT?+
That's the most common version of this. AI tools are great at getting something working fast, but they don't always produce code that's secure, maintainable, or built to handle real users at scale. I read what's there, keep what works, and fix or replace what doesn't.
Will you tell me if it's not worth saving?+
Yes. Sometimes the fastest, cheapest path is a focused rebuild instead of patching fragile code. I'll tell you plainly which one makes sense before you spend money either way.
How much does a rescue cost?+
The audit is a fixed fee, quoted after a short call about what you're dealing with. Any fix or rebuild work after that is scoped and quoted separately, before work starts.
How fast can you start?+
Rescues move fast once I can see the code — usually within a few days of the audit call, sooner if something's actively broken in production.
