Have you built a working prototype with Claude Code, Lovable, ChatGPT/Codex, Cursor, or Replit and want to bring it safely into production? We handle deployment, stabilization, and ongoing operations to turn your prototype into a reliable product.
A software agency with experience in backend architecture, security, CI/CD, and cloud operations can make an application built with Claude Code, Lovable, ChatGPT/Codex, or Cursor production-ready. This means more than fixing individual bugs: it involves setting up tests, deployment, secrets management, monitoring, database access, and scalability. CodeGuides first assesses the prototype from a technical perspective, then handles stabilization, deployment, and operations with its in-house team in Germany.
An app built with Lovable, Cursor, or ChatGPT/Codex can launch successfully if it’s technically hardened before going live. Key requirements include secure authentication, server-side validation, protected secrets, database rules, automated tests, CI/CD, monitoring, and a reliable rollback process. A working prototype is just the starting point. CodeGuides reviews the existing codebase and implements the measures needed to prepare it for production.
The key question is rarely just whether the app runs. It’s whether it can handle real data, users, workloads, updates, and errors. AI prototypes often fall short in exactly these areas.
If it’s unclear whether the AI-generated code is viable, we start with a review. If the foundation is solid, we handle deployment and hardening. If it isn’t, we prioritize refactoring or rebuilding rather than overstating the code’s quality.
AI tools can quickly produce something that works. But they rarely cover what’s needed for production: secure deployment, ongoing operations, testing, and scalability.
Secrets exposed in the frontend, open endpoints, and inadequate authentication all need to be secured before real users can access the app.
The prototype runs locally or in a preview environment. Production requires environments, domains, TLS, and a secure deployment process.
Without automated tests and a deployment pipeline, every update is a risk. We build a repeatable release process.
Missing indexes, no backups, and an unclear migration strategy. We bring the data layer up to production standards.
Without logging, monitoring, and alerts, users may be the first to notice errors. We set up systems to catch problems sooner.
Patterns that work for one user may fail under load. We assess and harden the architecture.
From the initial assessment to stable operations, you decide how much you want us to handle.
Authentication, secrets management, input validation, OWASP-related fixes, and secure API endpoints.
Cloud setup, environments, domains, TLS, and a secure, repeatable deployment process.
Automated pipelines, testing, and a rollback strategy for lower-risk releases.
Logging, monitoring, alerts, and backups to help identify problems early.
Harden the database, optimize performance, and prepare the architecture to handle load.
We continue building on a stable foundation, delivering new features in predictable cycles.
We know the common production gaps in popular AI tools and address them so your prototype can become a product that’s ready to operate.
The code may be readable, but deployment, testing, and operations are often missing. We bring the application online safely.
React with Supabase: built quickly, but with frontend security risks.
A full stack in the browser, but without a clear separation between development and production or strong authentication.
Built directly in the editor, but inconsistent across module boundaries.
Replit, Windsurf, v0, and mixed codebases: operations and testing are almost always missing.
Many projects combine AI-generated and hand-written code. We bring both to an operational standard.
Three clearly defined services, so you can choose exactly what you need.
Want to assess the code first? Our independent review identifies risks and recommends next steps.
Need your prototype to run reliably in production? We deploy, stabilize, and operate it. That’s what this service is for.
Does the prototype need more work to meet your needs? We can build a new, viable product.
The effort depends on the condition of the prototype. A production-ready B2B MVP with a backend typically costs between 25.000 € and 60.000 €. Stabilizing and deploying a solid prototype alone costs significantly less. We’ll discuss the scope during our initial consultation.
An agency experienced in backend development, security, CI/CD, and cloud operations. We assess the prototype, set up deployment, testing, secrets management, and monitoring, and can take over ongoing operations if you need us to. This turns your Claude Code application into a reliable product.
Yes. For Lovable apps, we enable Row Level Security, remove keys from the frontend, and add server-side validation. For ChatGPT/Codex prototypes, we set up a production environment, harden authentication and the database, and create a secure deployment process.
In a review, we assess the code and identify risks and recommended actions. Preparing it for production means implementing those measures, including deployment, security fixes, testing, monitoring, and operations. A short review is often the first step toward stabilization.
We typically need repository access, access to your cloud environment or server, domain and DNS management, and relevant secrets. We agree on the scope at kickoff and work confidentially; we can sign an NDA if requested.
A solid prototype can often be deployed securely and stabilized within a few weeks. Larger projects involving architectural or security issues take longer. After a brief review, we’ll provide a specific timeframe.
Stabilizing and deploying a solid prototype alone is comparatively inexpensive. A complete, production-ready B2B MVP with a backend typically costs between €25,000 and €60,000. We’ll discuss the exact scope during our initial consultation.
Yes. After launch, we can take care of maintenance, monitoring, and further development. Learn more about ongoing app support.
All consultations take place on Google Meet.
Your confirmation and calendar invitation will arrive by email right away.
The appointment can be rescheduled if needed.
I look forward to our consultation
CodeGuides develops apps for consumers and businesses, with a primary focus on B2C apps. Our in-house team in Germany provides product planning, Flutter development and long-term operations, alongside custom software, AI automation and local AI infrastructure.
Possibly, but the decision depends on the code, architecture and operating requirements rather than the tool that generated it. Reproduce the build and assess authentication, data access, secrets handling, tests and dependencies. Keep components that meet the requirements, replace weak parts incrementally and plan monitoring and deployment. No platform can guarantee production readiness without reviewing the application.
Use our interactive configurator to get a realistic, non-binding cost range for your project.
In a 45-minute consultation, we clarify how your project can be delivered in a technically and commercially sensitive way.
In a short analysis call, we clarify how we can take over operations, security and continued development for your existing software.
