● SEC. 00 — ENTRY · LOAD APPLIED
Your AI got you to v1. Loadpath gets you to production.
Fixed-fee Production Readiness Audits and fractional senior engineering for apps built with Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, v0, and Replit. Security, architecture, testing, and a clear 30/60/90 plan — in one week.

You shipped fast. That was the right call. But now the questions are getting harder.
An investor wants to talk technical due diligence. An enterprise prospect sent a 40-page security questionnaire. Traffic doubled and the bill tripled. Or you just don’t know, with confidence, what’s actually inside your own app.
That’s not a vibe problem. It’s a load problem — and every codebase has a path the load travels. We find out whether yours will hold.
The eight places AI-built apps break under load.
Exposed secrets
API keys and credentials sitting in client code, shipped to every browser that loads your app.
Happy-path auth
Authorization that checks the obvious case and trusts the rest — until someone changes one ID in a request.
No row-level security
Database access with no per-tenant boundaries, so any user can read rows that aren't theirs.
Zero tests
Nothing to catch regressions, so every new feature quietly breaks two old ones.
No CI/CD
Deploys happen by hand from a laptop. Each one is a prayer, not a process.
No observability
No logs, metrics, or alerts — so outages are discovered by your customers before you.
Queries that won't scale
N+1 queries and unindexed tables that feel fine at ten users and fall over at ten thousand.
Uncapped cloud spend
Infrastructure with no ceilings, so a traffic spike — or a bad loop — becomes a five-figure bill.
Production Readiness Audit
One week, one fixed price. We trace the load path from user to database, find what won’t hold, and hand you a prioritized plan to fix it — in plain language, with evidence.
If the report doesn’t tell you something you didn’t know about your own product, you don’t pay.
Deliverables
- Security Findings Report — OWASP Top 10, mapped to your code
- Architecture & Scalability Review
- Testing / CI/CD assessment
- Cloud cost review with concrete ceilings
- Prioritized 30 / 60 / 90 remediation roadmap
- One-hour live readout call
We’re not against vibe coding. We’re what comes after it.
Loadpath is founded and run by engineering leaders who’ve built and scaled software at high-growth startups across fintech, e-commerce, healthcare, mobility, and education. We’ve led engineering teams, founded our own companies, and worked fractionally with startups through to successful exits — shipping production systems in domains where security gaps, downtime, and bad data carry real consequences.
We've run engineering orgs at high-growth startups, owning the systems that had to stay up as the user count multiplied.
We've started our own companies, including in fintech, so we build like owners: scoped tight, shipped fast, made to outlast the demo.
We've embedded fractionally with startups and stayed on the load path all the way to a successful acquisition.
We build daily with the same agentic AI tools your app was built with — Claude Code and the rest — and know exactly what they get right and what they quietly leave for later.
Three honest paths. The audit is complete on its own.
Fix it yourself
Take the 30/60/90 roadmap and run it with your own team. Genuinely fine — that's what it's for.

A fixed-scope 2–4 week hardening engagement. We close the highest-priority findings with you.

From $8K / moDo you need write access? +
No — read-only by default. Most of the audit runs against a read-only copy or scoped access. If a finding needs a live reproduction, we agree on it explicitly.
What stacks do you cover? +
TypeScript / Next.js / AWS / Supabase / Vercel natively — that's home turf. Most modern stacks are covered; if yours is unusual, the triage call sorts it out before you pay anything.
Should I just rebuild from scratch? +
Usually no. Rebuilds throw away working product and real user knowledge. The report tells you either way — with evidence, not vibes.
Is my code confidential? +
Yes. NDA is standard and signed before access. Handling is SOC 2-aligned: scoped access, no third-party sharing, artifacts deleted on request.
How fast can we start? +
The triage call can happen this week. Audits are booked into the next-available slot — the fixed one-week clock starts when access is granted.
