Your AI-built app got you to a demo. We get it to launch.
You built something real with Lovable, Replit, v0, Bolt or Cursor. Now it needs to hold up with real users, real payments and real data. We take over AI-built apps, keep everything that works, fix what doesn’t, and get you launched.
You talk to the engineer who builds it. No account managers, no hand-offs.

Sound familiar?
- It works in the demo but breaks with real users
- Every fix the AI makes breaks something else
- You’re not sure who can see whose data
- Payments work in test mode and nowhere else
- You can’t deploy it outside the builder
- Investors or customers are waiting and launch keeps slipping
What we fix
Authentication and permissions
Logins that work on your domain, roles enforced on the server, and no way to reach pages you shouldn’t.
Database security
Row-level security, validation and access rules so users only ever see their own data.
Payments and subscriptions
Stripe done properly: verified webhooks, failed payments, upgrades, refunds and credits.
Uploads and media
File uploads that handle real sizes, private storage and processing pipelines.
Background jobs
Queues and scheduled tasks for the slow work, so nothing times out in front of users.
Deploys and hosting
Production and staging on infrastructure you own, with backups and rollbacks.
Tests and monitoring
Tests around the flows that matter and alerts when something breaks.
Performance
Fast pages on real phones and networks, and database queries that scale.
Everything else
Integrations, email, admin tools, AI features: whatever stands between your app and launch.

Rescue work
Vibe-code rescue and AI product build
Signa
Signa proved its idea for AI jewelry design with a Replit prototype. We built it into a production B2B platform with business accounts, subscription billing, AI image generation and automated workflows.

Vibe-code rescue and ongoing development
Clipflo
Clipflo is a video gallery platform for wedding content creators, built in Lovable by its founder. It took off fast, and its creators were soon uploading far more video than a first version is built for. We rebuilt the upload pipeline for scale and stayed on as Clipflo’s engineering team.

Questions
Will you rewrite my whole app?
Almost never. Most AI-built apps have plenty worth keeping. We keep what works and replace only what won’t survive production. The Launch Blueprint tells you exactly which is which.
Which platforms do you work with?
Lovable, Replit, v0, Bolt, Cursor, and other AI builders like Base44, Windsurf and Claude Code. We’ve worked with non-technical founders who built on all of them.
I’m not technical. Will I understand what you’re doing?
Yes. Most of our rescue clients are non-technical founders. You get plain-English updates, a clear plan and no jargon.
How much does a rescue cost?
It depends on what we find, which is why we start with the $1,499 Launch Blueprint. It ends with a quote, and the fee is credited back when you go ahead.
Do you sign an NDA?
Yes, before we look at anything. We work on a copy of your app and hand back every credential at the end.

What breaks in Lovable apps
The problems we find most often when founders bring us apps built with Lovable, why they happen, and how to check your own app before real users find them.
Taking a Replit app to production
What it takes to turn an app built with Replit Agent into something you can sell, from security and billing to deploys and hosting, and when to leave Replit.
