AI shipped the demo. We ship the product.
Your AI-coded MVP has a vision problem. Not a code problem. The architecture was designed in a demo mindset, not a product mindset.
Rescue products built by Lovable, Bolt, v0, and other AI tools. 48-hour audit. $495. One senior engineer. Actionable diagnosis, not a proposal.
The demo was always going to work.
Lovable, Bolt, v0, and Claude Code build working demos in 48 hours. That is their purpose. That is their superpower. The problem arrives when you try to ship it. Vector database choices made without understanding your query patterns. Authentication built for one user. API integrations designed as one-offs, not systems. The codebase that shipped as a demo cannot survive your second user.
Most teams discover this in production. We diagnose it before that happens. A senior engineer audits your codebase, identifies the architectural decisions that will break under load, and hands you a clear picture of what needs to be stabilised first.
The 48-hour audit is your diagnosis. Not a proposal.
We send one senior engineer into your codebase for 48 hours. No meetings. No pre-calls. No assumptions. They read the code. They trace the architecture. They run it locally. They identify every decision that will fail at 10x scale. They hand you a report with four specific action items: what to stabilise first, why it matters, and the engineering effort required for each.
The audit is $495. It is a product, not a sales conversation. You get answers. Then you decide what to do next.
Rescue always follows the same path.
Audit
48 hours. Senior engineer. Diagnosis report handed to you with four action items ranked by urgency and effort.
Stabilise
Fix the immediate failures. Database indexing. Authentication hardening. Error handling. The work that prevents breakage at scale.
Refactor
Rebuild the architecture for longevity. API design that scales. Integration patterns that do not break when you add a second integration. Codebase that survives your first 10,000 users.
Scale
Your product now has an architecture that works. Build on it. Grow without rebuilding. The hard part is done.
Most rescue projects end up as partnerships.
You hire us for a 48-hour audit. You get a diagnosis. Usually, that leads to a conversation: "I want to fix this, but I need your team." And we start building. Some of the longest client relationships Empyreal has grew from rescue audits that turned into three-month refactors. The audit is the diagnostic moment. The partnership is what comes after, if it makes sense.
