Lovable · Cursor · Bolt → Production
From fragile MVP to production-grade.
You shipped fast with Lovable, Cursor, or Bolt — a real head start. But AI-generated code is built to demo, not to last: it breaks under load, security is an afterthought, and every change feels risky. We rebuild that fragile foundation into robust, production-grade architecture you own.
Free, no-obligation review of your Lovable, Cursor, or Bolt app. You keep the report either way.
Migration preview
Production-readyBefore · Fragile MVP
- API keys hardcoded in the frontend
- No tests — breaks on every change
- Falls over at ~100 concurrent users
- Locked into generated vendor hosting
After · Production-grade
- Secrets server-side in a managed vault
- CI/CD + automated test coverage
- Autoscales to real traffic
- Hosted on infrastructure you own
The MVP got you here. It won't get you to scale.
AI coding tools are exceptional at getting you to a working demo. They're far weaker at everything that comes after — the unglamorous engineering that keeps an app secure, stable, and fast once real users and real data arrive. Here's what tends to break first.
Spaghetti you can't safely change
AI-generated code optimizes for "it runs today," not "it lasts." Logic ends up tangled, duplicated, and undocumented — so every small change risks breaking three things you never touched.
Security holes and exposed secrets
API keys shipped in the frontend, missing input validation, over-permissive access. What's invisible in a demo becomes a breach the moment you have real users.
No tests, no CI/CD
Nothing catches a regression before your customers do. Deploys are manual and nerve-wracking — easy to get wrong at exactly the wrong moment.
Falls over under real load
Synchronous calls, N+1 queries, no caching, and a database schema never designed to grow. Perfectly fine at 10 users; painful at 1,000.
Locked into the tool that built it
Your app, data, and hosting live inside Lovable, Bolt, or a generated black box. Moving it, extending it, or hiring around it gets harder every week.
Flying blind in production
No logging, monitoring, or error tracking. When something breaks at 2am you hear it from an angry customer, not an alert — and then you reverse-engineer your own app to fix it.
We rebuild the fragile parts into architecture you own.
You don't need to start over. We keep what's working — your product, your UX, the traction you've built — and systematically replace the brittle foundation underneath with production-grade engineering: robust custom code, reliable workflow automation, and cloud infrastructure that scales with you.

Rebuilt as
- Robust custom code you own
- Reliable workflow automation
- Managed cloud infrastructure
Custom code you own
Clean, modular, documented code in a mainstream stack — TypeScript/Node, Python, PostgreSQL. No proprietary lock-in: your team or ours can build on it, and you can actually hire for it.
Reliable workflow automation
We move your integrations, automations, and background jobs onto proven, maintainable tooling — visual where it helps, code where it counts, and fully auditable. Change how things run without redeploying your whole app.
Managed cloud infrastructure
Prefer not to run it yourself? We deploy to managed cloud — AWS, GCP, or your provider — with CI/CD, backups, monitoring, and autoscaling configured correctly and handed over with documentation.
Not sure how bad it is? That's exactly what the free teardown tells you.
Get your free MVP teardownFrom audit to scale, without the guesswork.
A clear, low-risk path from fragile MVP to production. You see exactly what we'd change, why, and what it costs — before a single line of code is rewritten.
- Audit
- We review your codebase, data model, security posture, and infrastructure, then map the real risks and what breaks first at scale.
- Plan
- You get a prioritized, fixed-scope plan: what to rebuild, what to keep, the target architecture, timeline, and cost. No open-ended commitments.
- Rebuild & harden
- We migrate the fragile parts to robust custom code, and add tests, CI/CD, secrets management, and monitoring — shipping incrementally so you're never in the dark.
- Scale & hand over
- We deploy onto infrastructure that scales, document everything, and hand you a system your team fully owns and can keep building on.
Our definition of “done.”
“Production-grade” gets thrown around a lot. Here's the concrete bar we hold every migration to.
Technologies we build with
You own everything
Code, infrastructure, and accounts — all in your name.
Fixed scope, fixed price
After the audit, no surprise bills or open-ended retainers.
No lock-in
Built on open, mainstream tools you can hire around.
Incremental delivery
Your app keeps running throughout — no big-bang cutover.
Questions founders usually ask.
Do I have to throw away what I built?
No. We keep your product and the parts that work, and rebuild only the fragile foundation underneath — usually incrementally, so you're never starting from a blank page.
Do I own the code and infrastructure?
Completely. Everything runs in your own accounts on mainstream, open tools, with full documentation. No proprietary Aserna lock-in — and no Lovable or Bolt lock-in either.
Isn't it too early to invest in "scale"?
We right-size it. The goal isn't over-engineering; it's removing the specific risks that will bite you next — security, data loss, downtime — and giving you a foundation to grow into, not a rewrite you don't need yet.
What exactly is in the free audit?
A written teardown of your app: the top security, stability, and scalability risks, what will break first under real usage, and a prioritized path to production-grade. It's yours to keep, whether or not we work together.
How long does a migration take?
It depends on scope, which is why we start with the audit. Most hardening engagements run in focused, incremental phases measured in weeks, not months — and you'll have a concrete timeline before any work begins.
Do you rebuild everything from scratch by hand?
No — we use the right tool for each job: robust custom code where you need control, and proven, maintainable tooling for workflows and automations. The goal is a system that's fast to change and easy to hire around, not maximal code for its own sake.
What happens to my data and uptime during the migration?
We migrate incrementally with backups and a tested rollback plan. Your app stays live and we cut over piece by piece — never a risky big-bang switch.
Find out what's fragile — before your users do.
Send us your Lovable, Cursor, or Bolt app and we'll send back a free architecture teardown: your top risks, what breaks at scale, and the fastest path to production-grade. No cost, no obligation — and the report is yours to keep regardless.
