working app · verified control

Your app works.
Do you know what it relies on?

Lovable, Bolt, Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity or another AI tool helped you validate the product quickly. The next question is no longer whether it works, but what a handover, growth and the next feature will cost. The Scan provides those reference points in 72 hours.

// the transition point

The product is validated.
Now the code must keep up.

Vibe coding and coding agents accelerate the build. Engineering structures what comes next when the app must be handed over, extended or operated with defined safeguards.

HANDOVER

A team needs to take over the code

A developer is joining, but nobody can yet explain the structure, run the project elsewhere or estimate the next change.

COMMITMENT

A third party asks for assurance

A client, investor or developer wants to understand security, ownership or architecture. You need evidence, not assumptions.

GROWTH

Every change is becoming more expensive

One change breaks another, traffic grows or dependencies multiply. Measure the cost before adding another layer.

// your code belongs to you

Owning the code is not the same as controlling the application

Platforms now export a growing share of the code. The task is to map the whole system: repository, database, user accounts, files, server functions, secrets and deployment. Some pieces export, while others must be migrated or reconfigured. We inspect every link before recommending a move.

Your code, your data, your access, your choices.

You build. We help you decide.

Lovable coaching is a consulting engagement: you keep control of the application while we help frame the work, formulate useful requests and understand technical choices. If you prefer to delegate, KERN-IT can also take charge of delivery.

A demo validates the experience, not the safeguards

These studies do not predict the state of your app. They show why visible behaviour needs to be complemented by a review of code, access and infrastructure.

98%

of the 1,072 Supabase-backed apps studied had at least one detected vulnerability.

We check whether yours is affected.

We look for the configurations that actually apply to your project.

Symbiotic Security

// understand, then act

We do not assume the answer

The Scan establishes where engineering needs to take over. The outcome may be a short list of settings, a targeted Production Upgrade or, exceptionally, a Rebuild.

The Scan

Assessment and priorities for what comes next

We examine security, the ownership chain, maintainability and ability to scale. For the code, the Takeover Index scores 10 criteria out of 20.

The Production Upgrade

We carry out the agreed priorities

We secure, migrate or strengthen what the Scan identified, with tests, version control, deployment and documentation.

The Rebuild

We rebuild clean, you keep what works

When the prototype has served its purpose, we rebuild on solid foundations (the KERN-IT engineering stack) while keeping everything your app already does.

// free online workshop

We build an app with AI,
and cover the basics together

A workshop to start right: we build an app live and walk through the basics checklist together. You follow along, ask your questions, and leave with the right reflexes.

// how it works

From the first conversation to a controlled position

1

You call us

You give us access to your app and tell us where you want to go. First call is free.

2

We assess

72 hours later, you have your assessment and roadmap: what works, what blocks, and the path to production.

3

We carry out the priorities

We secure, migrate or strengthen what you approved, without unnecessary disruption.

4

You take back control

Your app is yours, live, and you finally know what's under the hood.

A team of engineers

vibebusters is a team at KERN-IT, an AI-native Belgian custom software agency. More than 100 projects shipped, with AI tools integrated into the engineering process.

Code remains versioned, reviewed, tested and tied to acceptance criteria. The tool accelerates the work. The team remains responsible for the architecture, decisions and delivered result.

The assessment is led in Belgium by the team that can later work in the code. Findings remain clear to a non-technical decision-maker and usable by a developer.

The questions we keep hearing

Can you also support me while I build with Lovable?

Yes. It is coaching and consulting: you remain in control of Lovable while KERN-IT helps frame the work, prepare requests and understand the proposed choices. We do not change or extract anything in this engagement. You can separately entrust us with a feature or the whole delivery.

I just want to leave my platform and get my code back, do you do that?

Yes. We first establish what the export actually contains. Code, functions, schema, records, files and configuration do not always follow the same path. We migrate or reconfigure only the components that need to move under your control.

How much does it cost?

The Scan starts at €1,800 excl. VAT, as a fixed fee delivered within 72 working hours. It is deducted from a subsequent Production Upgrade. Further work is scoped only after the findings are known.

How do you protect access to my app?

We request the minimum access level, read-only for the Scan whenever the platform supports it. An NDA is available and no change is made without written approval.

How do I know when a Scan becomes useful?

When a team needs to take over the code, a change becomes hard to estimate, a third party asks for assurance or usage is about to grow. The Scan is less useful while you are still exploring the idea.

My app was built with Claude Code, Codex or Antigravity. Can you audit the repository?

Yes. The Takeover Index covers 10 criteria across structure, readability, verification, documentation and evolution. The tool does not determine the score: every finding must be tied to the repository.
