For founders who got most of the way with AI

You built it with AI. Now get it live, secure, and taking payments.

Real users signing up, money landing in your Stripe, an admin you can run yourself, nothing leaking. I take the app you got most of the way there and get it launched, then keep it standing as you grow. No rebuild. No hourly meter. No cofounder equity. Start with a free Leak Check to see where you stand, then we'll talk.

Fifteen years shipping production softwarea proof you can re-run on every finding

A founder-built app doesn't need a rewrite. It needs the hard part between a working demo and a safe launch. The part that decides whether it holds up when real users show up, done by someone who has shipped production software for fifteen years.

The work, plainly

What “finish and launch” actually covers.

No mystery scope. This is the work that sits between the app you have and a business that runs on its own. You will probably recognize your own punch list in it.

01Finish the half-built features

The screens that almost work. The flow that dies on step three. I go through what the AI left dangling and close it out until the app does what you told people it does.

02Wire real payments

Stripe in live mode, not test mode. Webhooks that fire, receipts that send, failed cards that retry. Money lands in your account and you can see every charge.

03Lock down the security

Sign-in that can't be walked around. A database strangers can't read. The gaps that leak customer data get closed before customers arrive, not after.

04Give you an admin

Refund a customer, look up an account, change a price, ban a bad actor. You do it yourself, from one screen, without texting a developer.

05Get it launched

Your domain, working email, error alerts, backups. The unglamorous plumbing that separates a demo link from a product people trust with a card number.

06Keep it standing

Launch is a day. Running is the job. Monitoring watches around the clock, I fix what breaks, and when you want to grow there's a senior engineer who already knows your codebase.

Why me

A senior engineer's judgment, at agent speed.

My longest client's product ran on my code for fifteen years, until they grew big enough to bring the work in-house. That is how I work after launch: I stay on until you outgrow me. AI does the volume. I make every call that touches your users, your data, or your money.

The checklist founders actually use
I posted a pre-launch checklist for AI-built apps in r/nocode. Google ranks it first for “vibe coded app launch checklist.” This corner of the industry is where I live.

The three stages

Where are you right now?

The math you're actually doing

A technical cofounder costs 20 to 50 percent of your company. Getting finished and launched costs a fixed fee, once.

Keep your cap table. Get launched.

Not sure where you stand? The free Leak Check ranks it for you.

Before you finish and launch, it helps to know what is actually exposed. The free Leak Check scans your live app and sorts what it finds into three buckets, so you know exactly where the next hour goes.

exposed nowFix before someone finds itTables the anon key can read, secrets in the client bundle, admin routes with no guard. The stuff that leaks user data today.

Four of your database tables, including the ones holding orders and profiles, could be read by anyone with your app's public key. That's your customers' data. Open to the internet.

Where you end up

A few months from now, this is just your company.

The app is live at your own domain. People you have never met sign up, pay, and come back the next day. Something breaks on a Saturday and you hear about it after it is already fixed. Nobody took a third of your company to get you here. The thing you nearly gave up on, or nearly gave away, is out in the world earning.

That is the whole trade: a fixed fee and some of my attention, and you come out the other side a founder with a live product, not a person with a stalled build.

You built it. Let's get it shipped, safely.
