Know exactly what you're dealing with.
Before you sink more money into a codebase you don't trust, get a clear-eyed read on it. We audit architecture, security, technical debt, test coverage and deployment — then hand you a scored report and a prioritized roadmap so decisions stop being guesses.
When an audit pays for itself
You inherited a codebase
Bought it, took it over, or had a developer leave — and you need to know what you actually own.
Something feels wrong
It's slow, it's fragile, or your team keeps saying "we can't do that easily" and you don't know why.
You're about to invest more
Before funding the next phase, you want an independent read on whether the foundation can take it.
You need a second opinion
Your current team says everything's fine, or that everything needs a rewrite. You want the truth.
A read, not a rewrite.
Fixed-scope and reversible — the audit stands on its own, whether or not you ever hire us for the fixes.
Architecture & structure
How it's built, where the risk concentrates, and how hard it'll be to change or scale.
Security & dependencies
Vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, outdated and risky dependencies, and the exposure they create.
Debt, tests & delivery
A technical-debt map, test-coverage gaps, and a review of CI/CD and how the thing actually ships.
A report you can act on immediately.
Not vague findings — a scored report, a prioritized roadmap, and a fixed quote for whichever parts you want fixed.

- A prioritized remediation roadmap
- A security and dependency review
- A fixed quote to do the fixes

From first call to shipped.

Straight answers.
Yes. "Rescue Assessment" is what we call this engagement inside our process — it is step 02 of the engagement ladder on our How we work page. Same scope, same five-day turnaround, same scored report and fixed quote.
Typically about five business days, depending on codebase size. You get the report and a walkthrough call, not just a PDF over the wall.
No. The audit stands on its own and the report is yours. If you do proceed with us, the roadmap becomes a fixed-scope plan — no open-ended engagement.
Read access to the repository and a short conversation about what the product is meant to do. We handle the rest and can sign an NDA first.
