Most AI-built MVPs collapse the moment real users show up.
WB-12 Audit & Recovery
You built something fast and now you need to know what you're actually holding. The WB-12 audit tells you in 5 days, what's solid, what's fragile, and what it would honestly cost to fix. Recovery scoped after, not before.

The problem
Every new feature breaks two old ones.
No one, including the AI, can tell you why. Sound familiar?
Every new feature breaks two old ones
No one, including the AI, can tell you why.
You're afraid to touch the codebase
Not because it's complex, because it's undocumented and inconsistent.
Investors are asking about scale, and you don't have an answer
Due diligence surfaces the debt before you can explain it.
You don't know if it's a cleanup job or a rebuild
And every week you wait, the answer skews further toward rebuild.

Your guide
We've been the senior engineering call on 50+ products, including ones that started as someone else's AI-generated prototype. The read is always the same in the first hour: what's real architecture, and what's pattern-matched scaffolding that happened to run.

The AI Rescue Triage
Before we touch a line of code, we run your existing build through this, so you know exactly what's worth saving.
- Does the core idea have real users, or did the AI build outrun actual demand?
- Is the data model salvageable, or does every new feature need a workaround?
- Could a new engineer understand this codebase in a day, or does only the AI (and no one) understand it?
- Is the technical debt costing you weeks, or is it actively blocking your next raise?
- Would a scoped rebuild take less time than continuing to patch what exists?
- Is this still the right product, or did vibe-coding let you skip the harder validation question?
The plan
How we actually do it.
Audit first, always
Audit first, always
Full codebase and data review before any code changes. You get the finding in writing.
Triage, not opinion
Triage, not opinion
Every module scored salvageable / needs-work / rebuild, with the reasoning shown, not just the verdict.
Fixed-price quote, not a blank check

Migrate without downtime
Migrate without downtime
Existing users and data move over live, not during a maintenance window that scares your customers.
What's included
Codebase Audit & Triage
A senior CTO review of what's salvageable, what's a liability, and what needs to be rebuilt from scratch.
Technical Debt Cleanup
Refactoring AI-generated code into something a real engineering team can actually maintain and extend.
Scale-Ready Rebuild
Rebuilding the fragile parts on solid architecture, without throwing out what already works.
This is a newer service. No case study here yet. It runs on the same senior judgment behind every other product we've shipped, held to the same WB-12 standard, not a separate, less-vetted process.

The longer it runs, the more it costs to fix
Technical debt compounds. Every sprint spent patching a fragile foundation is a sprint not spent on the audit that would've told you to stop patching three months ago. Founders who wait until a raise or an outage forces the question pay more: in audit scope, in lost time, and in deals that stall because the codebase couldn't survive due diligence.
