A clear "what we found and what to do" report
Written for a founder, not for another consultant. Findings, risks, and a ranked list of fixes with rough effort estimates.
Service / Technology & Integrations
Stack audits, AI integrations, third-party API plumbing — the work too small for a vendor and too sharp for a generalist.
What you get
Written for a founder, not for another consultant. Findings, risks, and a ranked list of fixes with rough effort estimates.
Most engagements end with a PR merged, an integration live, or an AI feature shipping — not a slide deck on the shelf.
Runbooks, architecture diagrams, and decision records that future engineers can actually use. Written in markdown, lives in your repo.
We can pair with your engineers while we work so the knowledge transfers as we go — not as a separate, expensive handover.
Twenty-plus years of building means we've seen most of these problems before. No upsell to a long engagement if your team can take it from here.
If the work uncovers a bigger project, we'll tell you — and tell you whether we're the right team for it or you should look elsewhere.
How it works
Read the code, talk to the team, run the system. End of phase: a written summary of what's there and what's in the way.
A ranked list of fixes with effort estimates, trade-offs, and what we recommend doing first. You decide what's in scope.
We implement the work, ship it through your normal release process, and leave a runbook behind. No long tail of "while we're in here…".
Typical stack
Most of this work is plumbing, not platform. We pick what your team can keep running after we leave.
Questions
Anywhere from a one-week audit to a six-week integration project. Most land at two to three weeks: enough to dig in, ship the fix, and document it.
Yes — we'll pair with your engineers on PRs and run a couple of working sessions on the concepts. We'd rather leave your team able to maintain the work than be the only ones who can.
Mostly async — Slack, GitHub, Loom. We need one kickoff and one wrap-up call. Anything in between is optional and on your schedule.
We do those — auth, secret handling, data-flow, common OWASP gaps. Output is a written report with severity ratings and concrete fixes. We can implement them too, or hand off to your team.
A few hours. If it's smaller than that, we'll usually point you to someone or write it up for free. We'd rather pass than pad.
A 30-minute call is enough to tell you whether this is an afternoon, a week, or a real project.
