01
Every fix creates another bug
You fix one issue with AI, only to discover two more. The application keeps changing, but the original problem never really goes away.

Vibe Code Rescue
For apps built with Lovable, Cursor, Bolt, v0 & more
Your AI built the app. We make it safe to ship.
AI tools get you to a working demo fast. They also leave behind exposed API keys, open databases, fragile logins and builds that only fail in production. Experienced engineers find what's really wrong, fix it at the root, and hand back an app you can trust with real users and real data.
- Security gaps closed
- Deploys that stay up
- Bugs fixed at the root
Talk to a real engineer. You don't need to know your tech stack.

AI gets you to a demo in a weekend. Getting to real users safely, reliably and without surprises takes engineering.
Sound familiar?01
It worked perfectly. Until it didn't.
Your idea became a working application faster than you imagined. But now something is broken, unpredictable, or difficult to take further. You're not looking for another prompt to try. You're looking for someone who can identify the actual problem.
02
Deployment keeps failing
Everything runs on your machine or inside the builder, but production builds fail, environment variables break, or the live application behaves differently.
›Error: DATABASE_URL is not defined (production only)
03
The application feels unstable
Unexpected errors, slow pages, timeouts, and unreliable functionality make you hesitant to invite real customers.
›504 Gateway Timeout · GET /api/dashboard · 30.0 s
04
Integrations aren't working
Authentication, payments, databases, webhooks, emails, or external services aren't communicating reliably.
›Webhook signature verification failed · payments
05
You don't trust the code yet
The application looks finished, but you're unsure about security, performance, maintainability, or whether it can handle real users.
›Is /admin protected on the server, or only hidden in the menu?
06
You've reached the limit of prompting
You've tried multiple instructions, rewritten parts of the application, and spent hours debugging without knowing what to do next.
›Prompt #47: “please fix it properly this time”
Beyond the prompt
Every rescue starts with evidence: the logs, the data flow and the one line where it actually breaks.
Our expertise02
Broken or just unfinished, we can help.
Two engagements, one standard: understand the application first, then change only what the evidence supports.
Rescue / 01
Application Rescue & Repair
Your application is stuck. Let's get it moving again.
We investigate bugs, deployment failures, broken integrations, and unexpected behavior in AI-generated applications. Instead of endlessly changing code and hoping for the best, we trace the root cause, explain what needs to change, and implement agreed repairs.
- Application debugging and bug fixing
- Failed deployments and hosting problems
- API and database issues
- Authentication and authorization problems
- Performance troubleshooting
- Third-party integration repairs
- Code refactoring and maintainability improvements
- Production configuration and environment issues
Code review / 02
Expert AI Code Review
Before real users depend on it, know what you're shipping.
Your AI-built application may look complete. But is the code secure, maintainable, and prepared for production? An experienced engineer can examine the architecture, review critical functionality, and identify risks that are difficult to spot from the interface alone.
- Architecture and code quality review
- Security and authorization checks
- Database design and data-handling assessment
- Performance and scalability considerations
- Dependency and configuration review
- Production-readiness assessment
- Prioritized technical recommendations
- Actionable next steps for improvement
Find your starting point03
What's happening with your app?
You don't need a technical diagnosis. Choose what sounds closest to your situation.
Situation · I can't deploy
Works locally. Fails in production.
Production environments introduce build configuration, server settings, environment variables, networking, runtime differences, and deployment requirements. We investigate the full deployment path to find the cause.
Common symptoms
- Builds that fail on the host
- Missing or wrong environment variables
- Live app behaving differently
What an engineer investigates
- Build Configuration
- Environment Variables
- Server Logs
- CI/CD
- Runtime Errors
Type of support
Deployment troubleshooting, part of Application Rescue
A guide to the right kind of help, not an automated diagnosis. An engineer confirms what's actually going on.
The people behind the fix04
Not another generated answer. An engineer who takes responsibility.
AI can generate solutions in seconds. But understanding why a system fails, choosing the safest path forward, evaluating technical tradeoffs, and validating a production change require careful engineering judgment.
We combine modern AI-assisted development with professional software engineering practices. That means investigating the real application, understanding dependencies, making deliberate changes, and communicating clearly about the results.
We don't recommend rebuilding your application just because it was created with AI.
How every engagement runs
01
Evidence first
We reproduce and read before we change anything.
02
Plain language
Findings explained so a non-engineer can decide.
03
Scope agreed
No implementation work starts before you approve it.
04
Verified changes
Every fix is tested against the problem you reported.
Common questions05
Questions before handing over your app?
Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.
Can you fix an app built entirely with AI?
Yes, AI-generated applications can often be inspected, debugged, and improved in much the same way as traditionally developed software. The first step is to understand the codebase, tools, dependencies, and problem you're experiencing.
I don't know how to code. Can you still help me?
Absolutely. You don't need to understand programming terminology to request help. Explain what you built, what isn't working, and what you want the application to do. We'll help translate that into a technical investigation.
My application works. Why would I need a code review?
A working interface doesn't necessarily show whether the underlying code is secure, maintainable, or prepared for production. A professional review can identify technical risks and recommend improvements before those risks become more expensive to address.
Can you help with deployment to Vercel, AWS, or other hosting platforms?
Deployment troubleshooting can be part of our service. Depending on the application's technology, we can investigate build failures, environment configuration, server errors, database connections, and other deployment-related issues.
Will you need to rebuild my entire application?
Not necessarily. We prefer to understand and preserve what already works. We recommend repairs, refactoring, or a rewrite based on the actual technical condition of the project and the effort involved.
Is my source code safe when I share it?
We agree on an appropriate method of access before reviewing your application. Where possible, access should be limited to what is necessary for the agreed work. Never submit passwords, API keys, or sensitive customer information through the initial contact form.
Can you help if I used Lovable, Cursor, Bolt, or Claude Code?
Potentially, yes. Many applications built using these tools use technologies that experienced developers can inspect and maintain. We'll first confirm the application stack, access requirements, and whether the project fits our expertise.
Can you help make my application production-ready?
We can assess important areas such as reliability, security, code quality, configuration, and deployment practices, then recommend and implement agreed improvements. Production readiness depends on the application's requirements and the scope of review and testing.
How much does Vibe Code Rescue cost?
Pricing depends on the application's complexity, the problem involved, and whether you need a review, a targeted repair, or broader engineering support. After understanding your requirements, we can discuss an appropriate scope and estimate.
How do I get started?
Send us a brief description of your application, what you built it with if known, and the help you're looking for. We'll review the request and explain the next steps.
Ready for the real world
Built in a weekend. Ready for real users, everywhere.
