Code & repository health
Repo structure, Git setup, dependencies, dead code, docs, and build processes — a maintainable product, not a pile of generated files.
Senior engineering for the AI builder generation
AI makes it possible to build incredibly fast. Getting from “it works” to “I can safely ship this to real users” is where it gets hard. ShipCheck closes that gap.
For builders using Cursor · Claude Code · Codex · Replit · Lovable · Bolt · v0 · Windsurf
Get from 72 to 90 before launch — and know exactly how.
{01} — Who it’s for
Maybe you built the whole thing without being a traditional engineer. Maybe you’re technical but moving 10× faster with AI. Maybe you have an MVP that works — and no idea whether the architecture underneath it is sane. That’s exactly who ShipCheck is for.
{02} — What we review
Repo structure, Git setup, dependencies, dead code, docs, and build processes — a maintainable product, not a pile of generated files.
Frontend, backend, APIs, auth flows, jobs, caching, and integrations. Making sure today’s shortcuts don’t become tomorrow’s disaster.
Schema design, indexes, migrations, row-level security, backups, and recovery. Databases that work — and aren’t structurally dangerous.
Auth, permissions, secrets, API exposure, and rate limiting. Including the classic: “the AI made it work by making everything accessible.”
Hosting, CI/CD, staging, monitoring, alerting, and rollbacks. Know what runs your app, where your data lives, and what happens when it breaks.
The ugly final 10%: signing, privacy disclosures, subscriptions, TestFlight, review feedback, and rejection remediation. Play Console too.
Onboarding, flows, empty/loading/error states, accessibility, and copy. If something feels amateurish or confusing, we’ll tell you — and help fix it.
A practical design partner: layouts, consistency, typography, and spacing — turning rough AI-generated interfaces into something intentional.
{03} — The ShipCheck report
Every finding answers four questions: What’s wrong? Why does it matter? How should I fix it? Can ShipCheck help fix it?
{04} — Three ways to work with us
Connect your repo and infrastructure. We review the product and deliver a comprehensive production-readiness report with prioritized recommendations and your ShipCheck Score.
Start an audit →Everything in Audit, plus live sessions with an experienced engineer — walk through findings, review architecture, debug production, and finally get an answer to “is this actually okay?”
Book live →A fractional senior engineering team. We work alongside you — resolving issues, hardening infrastructure, reviewing AI-generated changes, preparing releases, and getting the app shipped.
Become a partner →{05} — AI-native, not anti-AI
We’re not here to tell you that you shouldn’t have built your app with AI. We’re here to make sure you can confidently ship what you built.
50+ combined years of software engineering, fully embracing the AI development ecosystem. We won’t tell you to hire ten engineers. We’ll help you use AI better.
