Rescue & Scale

Rescue & Scale

We rescue projects that are stuck, slow, or unstable. From performance bottlenecks to messy architecture, we audit, refactor, and harden your codebase so your team can ship confidently again. Rescue engagements focused on measurable wins and safe refactors (Americas overlap (EST/PST-friendly)).

Features

What we deliver

Performance Rescue

Identify bottlenecks, reduce load times, improve caching, and fix UI jank with measurable outcomes.

Refactoring & Cleanup

Remove tech debt safely: simplify modules, improve types, reduce duplication, and make the codebase easier to change.

Stability & Error Handling

Fix crashes and production issues with better boundaries, retries, logging, and predictable failure modes.

Security Hygiene

Basic hardening: secret handling, unsafe inputs, dependency risks, and risky endpoints—without heavy process overhead.

Build & Deployment Reliability

Reduce release risk with CI tweaks, environment separation, and safer rollouts.

Prioritized Action Plan

A clear list of fixes and improvements with effort/impact so you can keep shipping after the rescue.

Use Cases

Who this is for

Slow website or dashboard

Fix load times, rendering bottlenecks, and caching so users get a fast, stable experience.

Unstable production app

Crash fixes, edge-case handling, and better error boundaries with clearer logging and monitoring.

Tech debt is blocking features

Refactor high-churn areas so your team can deliver new features without regressions.

Scaling pains

Harden infra and code for growth: database tuning, background jobs, and safer deployments.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Timeline depends on scope. MVPs typically take 8-12 weeks, while larger projects can take 4-6 months. We provide detailed timelines during the estimate phase.

We offer both fixed-price and time-and-materials pricing. Fixed-price works best for well-defined projects, while T&M is ideal for evolving requirements.

Yes, we offer maintenance packages including bug fixes, security updates, and feature enhancements after launch.

Delivery considerations for your region

Compliance & Data (US)

For US teams, we build with auditability in mind: clear access boundaries, least-privilege roles, and reviewable operational controls.

We can align delivery with SOC 2 / ISO-friendly practices (without claiming certification): evidence-ready logs, secure-by-default config, and clear ownership.

  • SOC 2 / ISO-friendly implementation patterns (no certification claims)
  • Least-privilege access and permission boundaries
  • Security review checklists for auth, payments, and data flows
  • PII-safe logging + incident response playbooks (on request)
  • Retention and deletion flows where required
  • NDA + vendor onboarding docs on request

Timezone & Collaboration (Americas)

We support teams across the Americas with meeting windows that work for EST/CST/MST/PST.

We keep delivery predictable with weekly milestones, concise async updates, and written decisions to reduce calendar load.

  • Americas overlap with EST/PST-friendly windows
  • Async-first updates with written decisions
  • Weekly milestone demos + change control
  • Fast turnaround on blockers and clarifications
  • Clear owner per workstream and escalation path

Engagement & Procurement (US)

US-friendly engagement structure: clear SOWs, milestone billing, and invoice cadence that fits typical procurement workflows.

If you need vendor onboarding artefacts, we can provide security posture summaries and delivery process documentation.

  • USD invoicing and milestone-based payment schedules
  • SOW + scope lock options for fixed-scope work
  • Time-and-materials for evolving requirements
  • Procurement-ready documentation on request
  • Optional paid discovery to de-risk delivery

Security & Quality (US)

We ship with a security-first checklist and performance budgets—so releases stay stable under real traffic.

Expect clean PRs, reviewable changes, and production-ready testing from day one.

  • Threat-aware checks for auth, roles, and sensitive data flows
  • CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + critical path smoke tests
  • Performance budgets (Core Web Vitals-minded) and bundle checks
  • Structured logging + error tracking hooks (Sentry-ready)
  • Rollback-safe releases and clear release notes
