Security & launch audit for AI-built apps
updated 2026.09.21 · vardha solutions
AI builders write code faster than anyone can review it. The result usually works in the demo — and often ships with the database wide open, a secret key in the browser, or an OpenAI bill with no ceiling. We read the code your AI tool produced, test it the way an attacker or a surge of real users would, and tell you in plain English what to fix before launch.
What we check in AI-generated code
- Database access rules. Many Lovable and Bolt apps run on Supabase. A 2025 security disclosure showed how often AI-built apps shipped with row-level security missing, letting anyone read or change other users' data. We test every table.
- Secrets in the client. Service-role keys, Stripe secret keys and OpenAI keys belong on a server or edge function, never in code the browser downloads.
- Authentication and authorization. Password reset, email verification, session handling, and whether changing an ID in a URL shows someone else's records.
- Rate limits and cost controls. Endpoints that call paid AI or email APIs with no limit per user are an invitation to a very large bill.
- Failure handling. What happens when OpenAI times out, a payment fails or a webhook arrives twice.
- Dependencies. Outdated or vulnerable packages the AI pulled in, and whether the project even builds cleanly from a fresh checkout.
- Deployment. Environment variables, preview deployments left public, logging of personal data, backups and monitoring.
What you get
- A traffic-light report covering security, data model, performance, third-party APIs and launch readiness — every finding graded red, yellow or green in plain English.
- An Executive Fix Checklist, ranked by what each issue could cost you in users, revenue or reputation, written so your developer, freelancer or AI tool can act on it.
- A 45-minute review call to walk through the findings and decide what must happen before launch and what can safely wait.
Need someone beside you after the audit? The Fractional CTO Retainer ($2,500–$5,000/month) adds weekly architecture reviews, implementation specs for your builders, and verification before each release.
Questions founders ask
Should I just rewrite my AI-built app properly?
Usually not. Most AI-generated apps can be made safe with targeted fixes. Because we don't sell development, a rewrite is only on the table if the evidence clearly supports it.
Can you review code from Cursor or Claude Code in my own repo?
Yes. Give us read access to the repository and a staging environment; we review the code and test the running app.
Will you fix the issues you find?
No — we're advisory only. We write the fix list and implementation specs your developer or AI tool can follow, then verify the fixes if you're on the retainer.
