From an AI-built prototype to software you can launch.

For founders and teams who used AI tools to get a working demo, and now need it to handle real customers and their data.

Where prototypes get stuck

AI coding tools can get an idea to a working demo in days. The trouble starts when real people need to use it. These problems come up often:

  • There are no tests, so each fix breaks something else.
  • Passwords and API keys are written into the code.
  • Users can see or change data that isn't theirs.
  • It runs on a free preview host, with no backups and no monitoring.
  • Nobody on the team can explain how some parts work.

None of that means starting again. The parts customers have already tried are often worth keeping.

What we do

We review the code and how it is hosted, and write down what holds up, what needs fixing, and what is quicker to rebuild. Security and data problems are fixed first.

Then we add tests around the parts that matter, restructure the code where it needs it, and move it onto proper hosting with automated deployment, backups and monitoring. Once it is ready, you can launch and keep building, with us or with your own team.

How we use AI ourselves

We use AI tools every day, and they make us faster. They also make mistakes that look correct. An experienced engineer reviews the design and code, owns the important decisions, and is accountable for what ships. How we work.

What production needs

Separate customer accounts, rules about who can see which data, billing, and dependable hosting are the parts prototypes tend to skip. NistCheck has all of them in a live product. Each customer's data is kept apart, peer comparisons use aggregated results without exposing anyone's assessment, and the infrastructure is defined as code.

Ways to start

Email or call us, or book a chat.

Getting it launch-ready

A defined piece of work with an agreed budget and acceptance criteria, ending with the product live.

Ongoing development

Time set aside each month for new features and support after launch.

Questions

Which AI tools do you work with?

Whichever one built your prototype. We work from its code and from wherever it runs. For our own work we use the best tools available and keep up as they change.

Can we keep using AI tools on it?

Yes. Once there are tests and automated checks, AI-written changes are much safer, because a mistake fails a check before it reaches customers.

Will you want to rewrite it?

Only the parts where rebuilding costs less than fixing. The review says which parts those are, and why, before any build starts.

Send us the prototype.

A link and a few lines about what it should do is enough. You will hear back from one of our engineers within a couple of days.
