$2,500 · 2 working days · fixed scope

Independent technical review of your codebase.

Fixed fee, fixed scope, delivered in two working days from access. You get the technical truth: what exists, what works, what is fragile, what to push back to your team.

Delivered by a senior platform engineer with ten years across SaaS, marketplaces and payments infrastructure. NDA standard. Read-only access. Your code never leaves a controlled environment and is deleted on completion.

01 / Fit

Who this is for

You are paying an agency and you are not sure what you actually own.

You are deciding whether to continue, fix, or rebuild.

You inherited a codebase from a previous team.

You are preparing to hand the project to a new team.

02 / Deliverable

What you receive

A PDF report. It opens with a general read on the build: what was actually delivered, how it is put together, and whether the foundations hold. Then a feature-by-feature findings table:

06

Recommended next action

Tech stack assessment: the choices made and whether they fit your product.

Dependency and integration review: what you rely on and what happens when it breaks.

Deployment direction: how the system ships today and what that means for you.

Prioritized next steps you can hand to any competent team.

03 / Sequence

How it works

  1. 1

    Pay to reserve

    Payment reserves your slot. Nothing starts until you are ready.

  2. 2

    Short intake form

    Sent immediately after payment. Company details, repo URLs, staging access, known problem areas.

  3. 3

    You grant read-only access

    A checklist walks you through it. Repo invite, staging logins, infra overview.

  4. 4

    The clock starts

    The two-day clock starts when access is confirmed working, not when you pay. You get that confirmation by email.

  5. 5

    Delivery

    The PDF lands in your inbox, plus a written Q&A pass on the findings after you have read it.

04 / Access

What access is needed

  • Read-only repository access, including commit history.
  • A running environment (staging or UAT) with role logins, if available.
  • Deployment and infrastructure overview.
  • Payment sandbox, if payments are in scope.

Partial access is workable. The report states clearly what was verified and what could not be.

05 / Scope

Where the fences are

  • One fixed-scope pass. Anything else needs written agreement.
  • Telephony and IVR systems are excluded unless agreed in writing.
  • Native mobile builds are excluded unless agreed in writing.
  • Deep security penetration testing is excluded. This is a review, not a pentest.
  • Deeper architecture and remediation planning is a follow-on phase, quoted after the review.

06 / Confidentiality

Confidentiality

A mutual NDA is available on request before payment. Your code is reviewed in a controlled environment. It is never shared, and it is deleted on completion with written confirmation.

AI-assisted analysis tooling is used under the same confidentiality obligations. You can opt out. Opting out reduces how deep the review can go in the fixed time, for the same fee. That trade-off is yours to make.

07 / FAQ

Straight answers

What is the refund policy?

Full refund any time before access is granted. No refund after the clock starts, because the work starts.

When do I get the report?

Two working days from confirmed working access. Not from payment. You control when the clock starts.

What if I never get around to providing access?

Your choice: a full refund, or we hold your slot until you are ready.

Who actually does the work?

Andrej, directly. Not delegated, not outsourced. The person selling the review is the person reading your code.

What about follow-on work?

Available and quoted separately. Never required. The review is designed to stand on its own.
