Stage 5 of 6
POC Hardening
You built a working prototype with Claude Code, Codex, or low-code tools. It looks good, but is it safe to sell? We audit it end to end and harden it for production: security, access control, compliance, billing, notifications, branding, and UI/UX, page by page.
This stage fits you if
A working, deployed prototype
Access to the code and hosting
A definition of production for your context: users, data sensitivity, regions
You leave this stage with
Hardening audit report with severity-ranked findings
Every in-scope page brought to the agreed production bar
Compliance checklist evidenced
Production deployment with monitoring in place
POC Hardening services
Fixed scope, transparent pricing, purchasable online.
Production Readiness Audit
We go through your prototype end to end (code, hosting, and every page) and give you a severity-ranked report of what stands between you and production.
£1,500
POC Hardening (Per Page)
The core hardening service: every in-scope page is reviewed and brought to the production bar, priced per page so the cost scales with your app.
From £500 + per-page rates
Hardening Sprint
A fixed 2-week sprint attacking the highest-severity audit findings first. Good for tight budgets: buy sprints until you are comfortable launching.
£6,000 per 2-week sprint
Compliance Pack
The paperwork and technical evidence a UK SaaS needs at launch: privacy policy inputs, cookie consent, DPIA-lite, terms inputs, and a security summary for enterprise customers.
£1,800
What comes next
After POC Hardening: Launch & Scale
Ongoing technical leadership: infrastructure, DevOps, monitoring, team bootstrap, and AI-coding enablement with guardrails, so your own people can safely ship with AI while we keep the platform healthy.
POC Hardening questions, answered
The opposite: building with AI was the smart move. Our job is to keep that speed and add the engineering rigour AI skips: security, access control, compliance, and reliability.
The audit fixes the page inventory first, then each page is priced by band (£100 simple, £200 standard, £400 complex) on top of a £500 base fee, with the per-page rate dropping the more pages you bring (15% off at 6+, 30% off at 16+), plus any cross-cutting modules like billing or GDPR. You approve the exact quote before work starts.
Yes. The Hardening Sprint attacks the severity-ranked findings two weeks at a time, so you can buy exactly as much hardening as your budget allows.
