Your app works. But is it production ready?
Vibe coding gets you a prototype fast. ERA is our review program for AI-built code, and it starts with an audit that tells you what is actually wrong. Bronze and silver deliver that report. Gold and platinum go further: we write the fixes, attest to them, and handle the deployment.
"It works" is not the same as production ready
AI tools let you build fast. But the patterns they generate weren't made to scale, stay secure, or survive a security audit. Here's what gets left behind.
Security gaps
A Stripe or OpenAI key in your frontend bundle is readable by anyone who opens browser devtools. Once it is there, assume it has already been copied.
Fragile architecture
AI-generated patterns rarely include rate limiting. The first time an endpoint gets hammered, you find out through a five-figure API bill overnight, not a graceful error.
No test coverage
Vibe-coded features handle the path you demoed and nothing else. The empty state, the timeout, the enterprise customer's SSO edge case: you discover those live, in front of the customer about to sign.
Compliance risk
Shipping an app that touches user data means you are running a business with legal obligations, read or not. GDPR, HIPAA, PIPEDA, and accessibility law do not wait for your Series A.
The OWASP basics show up in any security scan. The AI-specific failures don't.
When an AI hits something it can't resolve, it has two habits that ship straight to production if nobody reads the diff line by line.
It hides the error instead of fixing it
An "as any" cast, a "@ts-ignore" pragma, an empty catch block, a disabled lint rule. The build goes green. The bug ships anyway, and the next person to touch that file inherits it.
It inlines a real secret to make the session work
When a generated snippet needs a value to run, the AI will sometimes paste the real key or connection string in as a literal. It works, so it never gets flagged, and it lands in your git history forever.
Both are static-analysis findings. They assume nothing about how you built the app. ERA's review catches them the same way it catches the OWASP basics, because the code looking finished is not the same as the code being correct.
What a scan sees

Four tiers. Two are audits, two are certifications.
Where you start depends on what you need to know and how much you want us touching the code. The line between the two halves is the part that matters, so we draw it plainly.
Bronze
A one-time audit report. We read the codebase, write down what we find, and hand you an honest assessment with an action plan. That is the entire engagement.
Silver
Recurring audit reports on a set cadence. The same read as bronze, repeated on a schedule, so you can watch whether the code is getting better or worse over time.
Gold
Certification. We write the fixes, attest to their safety, and handle a deployment. This is the first tier where we put our own name behind the state of your code.
Platinum
Full-stack, full-service certification and partnership. We design the stack end to end and deploy it, and we stay in it with you from there.
Every tier comes with an ERA badge, and the badge links to the report behind it. At bronze and silver that badge points at an honest assessment, which means it can say the software is not ready. At gold and platinum it means we did the fixing and we are standing behind the result.
ERA audits are included at no extra cost on the Marketing + Build plan.
An audit is allowed to tell you the answer is no
The difference is who is making the claim. When we audit, we are describing what we found, and we keep the freedom to tell you the software is broken. Caveat emptor. When we certify, we are saying we fixed it and we stand behind that.
Bronze and silver are audits, closer in spirit to a SOC 2 audit than to a seal of approval. Neither one certifies anything. Gold and platinum are certifications, and only because we did the work ourselves and are willing to attest to it.
Every ERA badge links to a real, timestamped report, and that report may be unfavorable. That is the point of it. A stamp that could never come back negative would tell a buyer nothing, and it would not be worth putting on your product.
The engineering pass, once you want the findings fixed
An audit ends with a report. Gold and platinum are where we pick up the tools and fix what the report found, then put our name on the result.
Security fixes
Every tier looks for exposed credentials, broken auth, and injection vulnerabilities. Gold and platinum are where we close them.
Code quality and architecture
We refactor the fragile AI patterns into architecture that holds up as your user base grows.
Automated testing and build pipelines
Test coverage across edge cases and environments, with CI/CD pipelines so every deploy is validated.
Compliance and documentation
Logging, error handling, environment configuration, and documentation that stands up to an enterprise review.
What the badge claims
Every tier gives you a badge that links to your report. What gold and platinum change is what the badge is saying: not only that we looked, but that we fixed it and are standing behind it.
Who ERA is for
ERA was built for anyone taking initiative, the people shipping real products without a full engineering team behind them.
Solo founder
You built a SaaS product in a weekend with Cursor or Claude, and now you want to sell it. Start with an audit so you find out what is actually in there before a buyer does.
Non-technical CEO
You had an AI prototype built and it works, but you need someone to carry it over the finish line. That is what gold and platinum are for.
Small teams
Moving fast with AI tools but need enterprise adoption? An audit shows you what a procurement team is going to find. Gold and platinum are where we fix it and certify the result.
We speak vibe code, and we know where it breaks
We vibe code every single day. It's deep in our veins. That means we know exactly which patterns AI tools reach for, which ones break under load, and how to fix them fast.
Full code ownership
Whatever we help you build, you keep all of it. No platform fees, no lock-in.
Platform agnostic
We work with any stack, any framework, any platform. No vendor preference.
We know AI patterns
We know the pitfalls to avoid and the patterns that actually hold up at scale.
Speed that astounds
The rate at which we build, review, and ship will be much faster than you're expecting.
Do not take our word for it. Drop your project folder right here. lilReady reads it in your browser, never uploading a byte, and grades it the way an enterprise reviewer would.
Tip: drop the whole project folder. lilReady skips node_modules, .git, and build output automatically.

How an ERA engagement runs
Free assessment
Start with the free lilReady check to see your gaps in seconds, then book a free call where we review your codebase, give you a clear scope, and tell you which tier actually fits.
Engineering pass
We audit the codebase across security, architecture, testing, and compliance, then write up what we found. At gold and platinum we go on to fix it and deploy.
You get the report
Every tier ends with a timestamped report and an ERA badge that links straight to it. At bronze and silver the badge points at an honest assessment. At gold and platinum it says we fixed what we found.
You own everything
Full code ownership. No platform lock-in. No ongoing fees. Your product, your stack, your terms, whichever tier you pick.
