App rescue

Your app is not dead. It needs a rescue.

Somebody started it and stopped. We take over half built, stalled and abandoned apps, find out what is actually wrong, and finish them. It starts with a written audit that costs you nothing.

Start With the Free Audit

The same build failing on the day it arrived and passing nine days later, with nothing new added in between

Sound familiar

Any of These and You Are in the Right Place

Your developer or agency disappeared mid build

Your AI built prototype works until real users touch it

The project is months late and still not shipping

Every new feature breaks two old ones

The App Store keeps rejecting your submission

The codebase grew past anyone's understanding

You have the code but nobody who understands it

You are paying for rework instead of progress

You do not need to know which one it is. Working that out is step one, and it is our job rather than yours. We take these over however they got this way:

LovableBoltv0ReplitCursor or CopilotAn MVP that ran out of runwayAn agency build that went over budgetAn offshore project that came back unusableA solo developer who leftStuck in App Store or Play reviewA legacy codebase nobody wants to touch

How a rescue runs

Five Steps, and You Can Stop After Any of Them

What people send us to start: a link, a zip, screenshots, or one sentence

01 Free Audit

Send what you have: a repo, a Lovable link, a zip, half a spec. We read the code before telling you anything. You get an honest written assessment of what is salvageable, what is broken, and what it takes to ship. Free, even if you never hire us.

An App Store rejection, what we changed, and the app accepted

04 Ship

Then we finish it. Senior-level work start to finish, weekly progress you can see, through App Store review to live in your users' hands. Not an endless engagement.

The handover pack: your repository, your accounts, your keys and the notes

05 Stay

If you want us after launch: monitoring, updates, and a senior engineer on call, month to month. If you do not, you own everything and walk away clean.

02 Rescue Plan

A fixed scope and a fixed price, in writing, ordered by what unblocks shipping fastest. You decide with a document in hand rather than a sales call in your ear.

03 Stabilise

Stop the bleeding first: crashes, build failures, security holes, store rejections. The goal of this phase is a foundation you could hand to any engineer, including not us.

Before you ask

The Questions People Actually Send

Is my codebase too much of a mess?

Mess is the job. Half finished, undocumented and written by four different people is the normal starting point, not the worst case. The audit tells you honestly whether yours is salvageable, and most are.

I built it myself with AI. Is that a problem?

No, it is the most common rescue we see now. AI tools are genuinely good at getting you eighty percent of the way. The last twenty percent, auth, security, data integrity, App Store review and real device behaviour, is exactly what we do. Independent testing found AI generated code failed security checks in about forty five percent of cases, so yours failing is not a reflection on you.

What if you look at it and it is unsalvageable?

Then the audit says so, in writing, with what a rebuild would actually take. The audit is free either way. An honest start over now is cheaper than six more months of patching.

Will the previous developer's work be trashed?

No. Most stalled projects have real work in them, and the audit separates what to keep from what to replace. We are here to ship your app, not to win an argument with whoever came before.

Do I need to know what is wrong before contacting you?

No. “It stopped working and I do not know why” is a complete brief. Diagnosis is step one and it is our job, not yours.

How fast can this move?

The audit takes days, not weeks. Stabilisation starts as soon as you approve the plan, and the audit gives you a real timeline for your build rather than a guess.

Send Us the Wreck

Whatever state it is in, and whoever left it that way. The audit comes back in writing and costs you nothing.
