Every engagement, priced up front.

Diagnose first. Commit second.

Every engagement starts with the audit, including the ones that end there. It is fixed price because it has a fixed scope — 49 checks, evidence for each, and a plan you own.

• 72 hours

  Diagnostic Audit

  Find out exactly what stands between your prototype and real users.

  $2K – $5K

  Fixed scope, quoted from the audit

  • A production-readiness score against every check in the framework
  • Every finding written up with severity, evidence and the fix
  • A prioritised remediation plan you can hand to any engineering team
  • A walkthrough call with the engineers who did the review

  Where this one stops: The audit diagnoses. It does not change your code — that is the rescue tier.

  Rescue & Ship

  Fix what actually blocks launch, then put it live.

  $5K – $25K

  Fixed scope, quoted from the audit

  • Every critical and high-severity finding closed
  • Automated tests around the paths that matter most
  • A real deployment pipeline with staging and rollback
  • Monitoring and alerting wired to a human
  • Full handover — code, infrastructure and documentation are yours

  Scope this
• 6–16 weeks

  Full Rebuild

  Keep the product. Replace the foundation.

  $25K – $100K+

  Fixed scope, quoted from the audit

  • Your business logic and product decisions preserved and documented
  • An architecture chosen for where you are going, not where you started
  • Migration of existing users and data with a tested rollback
  • Test coverage and CI/CD from the first commit
  • No proprietary lock-in — standard stacks you can hire for

  Scope this
• from 3 months

  Co-Pilot Retainer

  An engineering team that stays.

  $5K – $25K/mo

  Fixed scope, quoted from the audit

  • A named team that knows your codebase
  • Code review on everything that reaches production
  • Continuous hardening rather than another rescue in six months
  • Capacity that flexes with your roadmap

  Scope this

Bands are indicative and quoted per engagement against audit findings — never against a conversation.

Tell us what you have. We will quote it.

An engineer reads every enquiry before anyone calls you, so the first conversation starts from your situation rather than a script. No code access is needed to get a number — and an NDA can be signed before any changes hands.

Six things decide where you land.

Ranges exist because these vary enormously between projects. Knowing which ones apply to you will tell you roughly where in a band to expect to sit, before anybody quotes you.

• 01

  Whether you take money

  Payments bring reconciliation, webhook handling, subscription lifecycle and compliance obligations. An application that charges customers is meaningfully more work than one that does not, regardless of its size.

• 02

  What data you hold

  Health, financial or identity data raises the bar on every category at once — access control, encryption, retention, deletion, audit. Anonymous or public data lowers it.

• 03

  How much backend actually exists

  A front-end generator leaves you a build rather than a rescue. A full-stack generator usually leaves a foundation worth keeping. This is the single largest swing factor.

• 04

  Whether anyone is using it yet

  Live users mean migrations run with no downtime and a tested rollback rather than a maintenance window. Safer, and slower.

• 05

  How consistent the codebase is

  One pattern applied throughout is quick to harden. The same problem solved four different ways in four places has to be reconciled before it can be secured.

• 06

  Who operates it afterwards

  Handing back to your team means documentation, conventions and a handover we stand behind. Staying on retainer means less of that up front.
