// services / ai app rescue

Your AI-built app looks close. I’ll find what’s blocking it.

Stripe broken? Login looping? Or it simply looks like every other AI-built app, and users leave? AI tools are built to generate, not to launch. The final mile is engineering and design, and I do both.

48-Hour Launch-Blocker Audit

$595

Credited in full toward a sprint booked within 7 days. Refunded if it doesn’t give you a concrete, prioritized action list.

Sound familiar?

  • Checkout or subscriptions half-work and you can’t tell why payments fail
  • Login loops, dead-end password resets, or users stuck after signup
  • The layout collapses on mobile the moment a real person opens it
  • Deployment fails, environment variables are a mystery, the domain won’t connect
  • The AI tool that built v1 keeps breaking one thing while fixing another
  • It looks like every other AI-built app, and users can’t tell why they should trust it

Then

  • Final Mile Sprint$4,500 – $5,500 · 5 business days

    Payments fixed, auth made sane, mobile fixed, onboarding and UI cleaned up, deployment hardened, analytics wired. Includes a 7-day warranty.

  • Founder Rescue Sprint$8,000 – $12,000 · 10–15 business days

    Everything in Final Mile, plus database cleanup, auth roles, Stripe webhooks, error recovery, observability, and a “what to rebuild later” memo.

Rescue Audit

From $1,500

1 to 2 weeks, fixed price by codebase size. A full codebase, infrastructure, security and UX review, with a prioritized fix plan.

Sound familiar?

  • Features break when you add new ones, and nobody can explain why
  • A security-conscious customer or investor asked questions you couldn’t answer
  • Your cloud or API bill is growing faster than your revenue
  • Technical due diligence is coming and you know what they’ll find
  • Users sign up and leave: confusing flows, dead ends, and a UI that feels like every other AI-built app

Then

  • Hardening SprintFixed scope · 2–6 weeks

    Security holes closed, secrets managed, auth done right, tests on code that touches money and data, CI/CD, monitoring, and cost controls.

  • Re-architectureWhere needed · Incremental

    A strangler-pattern migration rather than a big-bang rewrite, so you keep shipping throughout.

The $595 is credited in full toward a sprint booked within 7 days. If the audit doesn’t give you a concrete, prioritized action list, I refund it.

  1. 01

    A launch-readiness score out of 100

  2. 02

    The exact blocker list, ranked by severity: payments, auth, onboarding, mobile, deployment, security

  3. 03

    A Loom walkthrough of every problem, in your own app, in plain language

  4. 04

    A UX and design review: where it looks generic, and where users get lost

  5. 05

    A written verdict: fix now, rebuild later, or stop spending

  6. 06

    A fixed sprint quote, if it’s fixable

// design & ux

It works. It also looks AI-built.

AI builders produce the same app for everyone: the same layouts, the same gradients, the same components, and copy that sounds like nobody in particular. Users notice, even when they can’t say why, and trust drops before they reach your checkout.

The tell-tale signs

  • Same hero, same cards, same purple-to-blue gradient as every other launch
  • Generic copy that could belong to any product
  • Flows with dead ends, unclear states, and no empty or error screens
  • Spacing, type and components that drift from screen to screen
  • Fine on the builder’s preview, broken on a real phone
fix 01

UX review of the core flows

Signup to first value, checkout, and the screens where users drop.

fix 02

A real design system

Type, color, spacing and components defined once, so every screen agrees.

fix 03

An identity that’s yours

A visual direction and copy that sound like your product, not the template.

fix 04

Accessibility and mobile basics

Contrast, focus states, touch targets and layouts that hold up on a phone.

5 business days

Design & UX Sprint $3,500 – $6,000

Core flows reworked, a small design system (type, color, spacing, components) applied, copy that sounds like you, and mobile and accessibility fixed. Your app stops looking AI-built.

This site is the proof: built with AI, designed by hand. I use the same tools you do. The difference is the judgment on top.

// is this for you?

Good fit, not a fit

Good fit

  • Built with Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Cursor or similar
  • Running on Supabase or Firebase, Stripe, and Vercel or Netlify
  • Looks close, but doesn’t feel safe to launch or scale
  • You want a senior operator to tell you the truth about what’s broken

Not a fit

  • You only have an idea
  • You want unlimited feature development
  • You’re shopping for the cheapest developer
  • You need regulated medical, legal or financial certification

// faq

Questions

How fast can we start?

Usually within 1 to 3 days. The 48-hour clock starts when I have access, not when you pay.

What access do you need?

Read-only access to your repo (or your Lovable, Bolt or Replit project), the live or staging URL, and view access to Stripe and your hosting dashboard. An NDA is standard if you want one.

Do I need a full rewrite?

Almost never. In my experience, most AI-generated codebases are largely salvageable. The audit tells you exactly which parts.

Can you work in the tool that built it?

Yes. Often the right move is to keep the AI-assisted speed and add the engineering discipline around it: reviews, tests and guardrails.

What if the verdict is “rebuild” or “stop spending”?

Then you’ve saved months and thousands of dollars. The audit is yours to keep either way.

We’re mid-crisis. Outage, breach, angry customer.

Tell me on the call. Stabilizing comes first, and the report comes second.

Stop guessing what’s broken.

In 48 hours you’ll know what’s blocking your launch, what it costs to fix, and whether it’s worth fixing.
