SVC-03: Code & security audit

You don't know what's in your codebase. Someone should.

Whether the code came from an AI tool, an agency or a team that has since moved on, you need an honest read on its security, quality and risk. We review it closely where it matters and hand you a prioritized report you can act on.

Fit check

This is for you if…

  1. 01

    You're raising or being acquired

    Investors or buyers will look under the hood. You'd rather find the problems first.

  2. 02

    You inherited the code

    An agency, freelancer or former cofounder wrote it and you can't judge it yourself.

  3. 03

    AI wrote most of it

    It works, but nobody has read it end to end, and it handles customer data.

  4. 04

    You want a second opinion

    Your team says it's fine. You want an independent senior view before you bet the roadmap on it.

Deliverables

What you get.

  1. D-01

    Security review

    Auth, access control, secrets, dependencies, injection risks and data exposure, checked against how the app really runs.

  2. D-02

    Architecture assessment

    Whether the structure will hold up as you add features, users and developers.

  3. D-03

    Code quality read

    Hotspots, duplication and fragile areas, with examples from your own code.

  4. D-04

    Infrastructure and data check

    Hosting config, backups, environment separation and who can reach production.

  5. D-05

    Prioritized findings report

    Every issue rated by risk and effort, in plain language with the technical detail attached.

  6. D-06

    Walkthrough call

    We take you or your team through the findings and answer every question.

Salvage report

What we keep vs. what we replace.

We'll tell you what's solid as clearly as what isn't. A good audit protects the parts worth keeping.

Keep

  • Sound architecture decisions, with the reasons they work
  • Well-tested modules and clean boundaries
  • Vendors and services that fit your stage
  • Patterns your team should keep using

Replace

  • Vulnerabilities, ranked by how exposed they are
  • Dead code and duplicated logic that hides bugs
  • Risky dependencies and outdated packages
  • Shortcuts that will block the next stage of growth

FAQ

Questions we hear.

Something else on your mind? Ask it on the call. That's what it's for.

Book a call
Is this a penetration test?

No. It's a code and configuration review by senior engineers, which finds a different set of issues. If you need a formal pen test for compliance, we can recommend testers and help fix what they find.

Who sees the results?

Only you and whoever you choose to share them with. We're happy to sign an NDA before we see any code.

Do you need write access?

No. Read-only access to the repository and infrastructure is enough.

Can you fix what you find?

Yes, if you want us to. The report stands on its own either way, so you can hand it to any team.

Can we share the report with investors?

Yes. We can prepare a summary suited to due diligence alongside the full technical report.
