Vibe Code RescueFix Your AI-Built App
Your prototype works. It also has hardcoded secrets, unprotected API routes and no tests, and you probably found that out the hard way. We audit AI-generated codebases, fix what is actually dangerous, and hand you back a product you can put in front of real users.

Overview
AI Wrote the First 70%. The Other 30% Is Why You're Here.
Vibe coding, meaning you describe what you want to an AI tool and ship what it returns, genuinely works for the first version. You got a working product in a weekend that would have taken a contractor two months. That leverage is real, and we are not here to tell you it was a mistake.
The problem is that AI coding tools optimise for code that runs, not code that survives. Veracode's 2025 GenAI Code Security Report tested more than 100 models across 80 coding tasks and found roughly 45% of AI-generated code introduced an OWASP Top-10 vulnerability. The failures cluster in exactly the places a demo never exercises: authorization, secrets handling, payment flows, and error paths.
A vibe code rescue is the structured process of finding those failures before your users do, then fixing the ones that actually matter, in priority order, without throwing away the product you already have. Most of the apps we see do not need a rebuild. They need about two weeks of senior engineering attention on the parts nobody prompted for.
What a Vibe Code Rescue Actually Fixes
Exposed Secrets
API keys, database URLs and service tokens committed to the repo or shipped to the browser bundle. We find them, rotate them, and scrub the git history so an old commit can't leak them later.
Unprotected API Routes
The most common failure we find. Authorization gets checked in the UI but never on the server, so any logged-in user can read any other user's data by changing an ID in the URL.
Silent Error Paths
AI-generated code wraps external calls in empty catch blocks. Payments fail quietly, emails never send, and nothing shows up in a log. We add structured handling and real error tracking.
No Safety Net
No CI, no tests, no staging. Every deploy is a live experiment. We add a pipeline that runs on every push and end-to-end tests on your three to five money paths.
Data Model Drift
Schemas grown one prompt at a time: duplicated tables, missing indexes, no foreign keys. This is the one that gets expensive later, so we assess it first and tell you honestly if it needs restructuring.
Runaway Cost & Latency
Unbounded LLM calls, no caching, no rate limits, N+1 queries on every page load. Fine at ten users. A five-figure bill at ten thousand.
WHAT IT COSTS
Three Ways In, Priced Before You Call
Every competing rescue page says "contact us for pricing". Here are our actual numbers. The audit fee is credited in full against a rescue if you go ahead.
Code Audit
$1,500
3 business days · fixed price
A senior engineer reads your codebase and gives you a written report: every security and stability risk found, ranked by severity, with the effort to fix each one. You get the report whether or not you hire us for the fix.
- ✓Secret scan across code and git history
- ✓Authorization audit on every API route
- ✓Dependency and static analysis (OWASP Top-10 ruleset)
- ✓Data model review and scaling risks
- ✓Repair-or-rebuild recommendation with reasoning
Rescue Sprint
from $6,000
2 weeks · fixed scope
The fix itself. We work through the audit findings in severity order and hand back an app that is safe to put in front of paying users. Same product, same features, without the landmines.
- ✓Secrets rotated and moved to environment config
- ✓Server-side auth enforced on every route
- ✓Structured error handling and error tracking live
- ✓CI pipeline plus end-to-end tests on critical paths
- ✓Uptime monitoring and a written handover doc
Rebuild & Scale
from $18,000
4 to 8 weeks · milestone-based
For the cases where the foundation genuinely cannot hold. We keep your product and your data, and rebuild the layers underneath on an architecture that supports the next two years instead of the next two months.
- ✓Re-architected data model with a real migration
- ✓Rewritten service layer, features preserved
- ✓Performance and LLM-cost engineering
- ✓Cloud or in-region deployment, GCC data residency available
- ✓Paid per milestone, so you approve each one before the next starts
HOW IT RUNS
From Repo Access to Safe to Launch
01
Triage call, 20 minutes, free
You show us the app and tell us what broke. We tell you straight away whether this is a two-week fix or a rebuild, and roughly what it costs. No deck, no discovery invoice.
02
Audit, 3 business days
Read-only access to the repo. A senior engineer runs the full diagnostic and writes up every risk with a severity rating and a fix estimate. You own the report.
03
Fix, in severity order
We start with anything that leaks data or loses money, then stability, then structure. You see a working build at the end of every week, not at the end of the project.
04
Handover, you keep the keys
Your repo, your cloud accounts, your data, throughout. You get a written handover covering what changed and what to watch, so your next developer isn't starting blind.

Vibe Code Rescue Questions
A vibe code rescue is a structured audit and repair of an application that was generated mostly by AI coding tools such as Lovable, Bolt, Cursor, Replit or v0. A senior engineer reads the codebase, documents every security and stability risk, then fixes them in severity order so the app can handle real users, real money and real traffic. It is not a rewrite. The goal is to keep the product you already have and remove what makes it dangerous.
Our fixed-price code audit is $1,500 and takes three business days. A full rescue sprint starts at $6,000 for two weeks, which covers secrets, authorization, error handling, CI and tests on your critical paths. If the foundation has to be rebuilt, that work starts at $18,000 and runs 4 to 8 weeks on milestones. The audit fee is credited in full against the rescue if you proceed.
Use the data model as the deciding line. If your database schema is broadly right and the problems are in authorization, secrets, error handling and tests, those are additive fixes and a two-week rescue is far cheaper than a rebuild. If the schema itself is wrong, meaning the wrong entities, no relationships, or data duplicated across tables, then fixing it means migrating everything above it anyway, and a rebuild of those layers is usually the cheaper path. The audit tells you which case you're in, in writing, before you commit to anything.
All of the common ones: Lovable, Bolt.new, Cursor, Replit, v0, Claude Code and Windsurf, plus anything built directly against ChatGPT or Claude. The tool matters less than the stack. Most of what we rescue is React, Next.js, Node and Python against Supabase, Postgres, Firebase or MongoDB, which is what these tools generate by default.
We start with read-only repo access, sign an NDA before you send anything, and work in your accounts rather than copying your codebase into ours. Your repository, cloud accounts, database and data stay in your name throughout, and you get a written handover at the end so you are never dependent on us to keep the product running.
Triage calls are usually available within a day, and audits typically start within 48 hours of repo access. If you have an active security incident, such as leaked keys or exposed customer data, say so when you book and we will treat it as urgent rather than queue it.
Yes. We design deployments for in-Kingdom or GCC-region cloud hosting where data-residency or PDPL requirements apply, and we can run the whole stack inside your own environment. This is a common requirement for the healthcare and fintech products we rescue.
