Beyond the demo
Rescue for websites and apps built with AI
Catatumbo Labs rescues projects built with AI tools such as Lovable, Bolt, v0, Cursor or Replit (known as vibe coding) and gets them ready for real customers. We audit the code, fix security and architecture problems, add tests, SEO and monitoring, and deploy it on reliable infrastructure that our engineering team maintains.
What does rescuing an AI-built project include?
Code and security audit
We review the code, dependencies, exposed secrets, permissions and how data is stored.
Vulnerability fixes
We close the gaps: keys in the browser, unauthenticated routes, unvalidated input and excessive access.
Architecture and database
We organize the code and data so the product holds up with real users and can grow.
Testing and deployment
We add tests, separate environments and a repeatable deployment, with backups.
SEO and performance
Speed, structure, metadata and structured data to show up on Google and in AI assistants.
Monitoring and maintenance
Alerts, error tracking and a team that responds when something breaks.
Who is it for?
- Founders who built an MVP with AI and now have users, payments or investors.
- Companies with a website, app or chatbot built fast that nobody reviewed in depth.
- Teams whose prototype works in the demo but fails, goes down or has become hard to change.
How do we rescue a project?
Audit
We review the code, infrastructure and risks, and explain what we found in plain language.
Rescue plan
We prioritize what’s urgent (security and data) and decide what stays and what gets rebuilt.
Fix and harden
We fix, test and get the project ready for real customers.
Launch and maintain
We deploy it, monitor it and keep evolving it with you.
Questions
Frequently asked questions about rescue for websites and apps built with AI
What is vibe coding?
It’s building software by asking an AI tool to generate the code, often without reviewing it line by line. It’s a fast way to test an idea, but the result is rarely ready for real customers without an engineering review.
Can you fix an app built with Lovable, Bolt, v0, Cursor or Replit?
Yes. We work on the code you already have: we audit it, fix what’s needed and get it ready for real customers. If a part isn’t worth saving, we tell you and propose how to rebuild it.
Do we have to start from scratch?
Almost never. Most projects have a usable foundation. The audit decides what stays, what gets fixed and what’s worth rebuilding.
What are the risks of launching an AI-built project without a review?
The most common are exposed keys and customer data, unauthenticated routes, errors nobody notices, outages under real traffic and a site that Google and AI assistants don’t understand. None of them show up in the demo; they appear once you have users.
Do you use AI to write code too?
Yes, every day: it helps us build faster. The difference is that every change goes through engineers who review it, test it and answer for the system once your customers are using it.
