How it works

  1. Kickoff

    Onboarding, repo access, scope confirmation. We align on focus areas and establish communication cadence.

  2. Architecture review

    System design, data flow, scalability posture, dependency mapping, and technical debt assessment.

  3. Security & performance

    Vulnerability scan, auth review, OWASP top-10 check, load and performance profiling.

  4. Code quality & DevOps

    Code standards, test coverage, CI/CD maturity, deployment pipeline, and observability review.

  5. Report delivery + walkthrough

    Compiled 47-item report, 1-page action plan, and 30-minute recorded walkthrough call with Q&A.

Is a Tech Audit right for you?

Best for

  • Series A diligence prep: investors are asking technical questions
  • Your previous dev team left and you don't know what they built
  • You've vibe-coded an MVP and need to know if it'll scale
  • You’re raising and want a clean bill of health for the data room

Not for

  • Active rewrites where the audit would be obsolete on delivery: talk to us about Project Rescue
  • Pre-code, idea-stage projects where there's nothing to audit: try a Discovery Sprint
  • Established engineering teams looking for a peer review: a fractional CTO engagement may fit better

What the report actually contains

Ask any auditor to confirm these four before you pay, ourselves included. A raw vulnerability dump is not a report, and neither is a list of everything a linter disagreed with.

  1. Executive summary

    The overall health of the system in plain language, written so a non-technical founder can read it without a translator and forward it to an investor unedited.

  2. Findings ranked by severity

    Each one pointing at specific files and lines rather than describing a category of problem that could apply to anybody. Ordering is the judgement you are paying for.

  3. Architecture assessment

    Whether the system survives growth, not just whether it works at today’s traffic. This is the part that answers whether to keep building on it.

  4. Prioritised remediation plan

    With effort estimates attached, so you can decide what to fix now, what to schedule, and what to accept knowingly rather than by accident.

Every layer of your stack, under one diagnostic

Architecture, security, performance, code quality, DevOps, compliance, and documentation: 47 items across every layer. A single report, a clear action plan, and a 30-minute walkthrough with the engineer who wrote it.

Frequently asked questions

  • Quoted before anyone has seen your repository, yes, because the vendor is guessing and guesses are priced defensively. Quoted after a short scoping call it is the opposite: it means someone looked at your stack, sized the work, and is carrying the risk of being wrong. Ours is fixed after that call and scoped to one primary codebase and its deployment configuration, with anything beyond that quoted before we start.
