for apps that work and now need to hold up
Architecture Review
A scan finds broken locks. This review looks at how the whole house is built: what runs where, who is trusted with what, where your data goes, and what will break first as you grow. You get a written report with diagrams, a recommended setup for your size and budget, and a plan in the order to do it.

What is in the report
- How your app is built today, as a diagram: browser, server, database, outside services and the data between them.
- Risks in the design, most serious first: decisions made where users can change them, access rules copied into every route, one master key for everything, data that leaves the app unnoticed.
- The setup we recommend, as a second diagram, with a reason for each choice: hosting, database, login, background jobs, files, secrets, environments, backups, monitoring.
- A plan: what to do this week, next month, and later as you grow, including what not to build yet.
- Running cost of the recommended setup at your expected size.
How it works
- 1Tell us about the app. The form below takes about five minutes: what it does, how many users, your budget and what worries you.
- 2We read your code. A public GitHub link, or for private code a zip you scan on our site first. We never run it.
- 3A developer writes the review. Our scanner and AI do the groundwork against OWASP ASVS, the OWASP Top 10 lists and vendor guidance; a developer checks every point and adds what only experience catches.
- 4Report and call. A PDF with diagrams, and 30 minutes to go through it and answer questions.

Good fit, and not
- An app built quickly with Lovable, Bolt, Cursor or Claude Code that now has paying users
- Before raising money, a security questionnaire or an enterprise customer
- Agencies handing an app over to a client
- Teams unsure whether their setup will hold at ten times the users
- A penetration test of the live app: we review code and design, not attack your servers
- A formal compliance audit or certificate (SOC 2, ISO 27001): we help you prepare
- A two-day prototype: start with the free score

Questions
How is this different from a Launch Audit?
The Launch Audit finds and verifies specific problems in your code, line by line. The Architecture Review looks at the design as a whole and tells you what to build next and how. Many teams do the Audit before launch and the Review when they start to grow.
Is our code safe with you?
We read it, never run it, and delete our copy after the review. Keys found in the code are hidden before any AI model sees it. AI providers we use do not train on it. See security.
Is this written by AI?
AI does the groundwork: reading thousands of lines, drawing the first diagrams, checking against the standards. A developer then checks every point, removes what does not apply and adds judgement about your situation. You talk to that developer on the call.
Private repository or no GitHub?
Upload a zip on the home page and paste the report link into the form.
Refunds
If we cannot read your code or decide the review would not help you, we say so before invoicing. After delivery, the refund policy applies.
