Independent Human Audit of AI-Built Software
Senior engineers read your codebase themselves — and, unusually, also audit the team or vendor that produced it: repo history, testing discipline, review practice, delivery honesty. Three days, two meetings, and a written report you can act on, hand to the vendor, or take to your board. Fixed price, bookable online.
Not sure an audit is what you need? The free 30-minute session hears the situation and says honestly whether to audit, rescue or relax. You keep the advice either way.
AI builds. Humans verify.
Audit & Human Oversight · The group promiseThe moments an audit is bought
The AI-built product needs an adult to look at it
It was built fast — by a vendor with AI tools, an internal enthusiast, or a founder and a prompt. It works in the demo. Whether it survives real users, real load and a security probe is precisely what a human senior read establishes, before customers establish it for you.
You are paying a vendor and flying blind
Invoices arrive, demos look fine, and you have no independent way to know whether the codebase is an asset or a liability with a UI. An audit is the second opinion — including on whether the velocity you are billed for is real, which the repo history shows.
The acquisition or investment needs technical diligence
A price is about to be agreed on software nobody on your side has read. Three days of senior eyes on code, architecture and delivery practice is the cheapest input that number will ever get.
Something feels wrong and nobody can name it
Releases slow down, estimates inflate, the same bugs return. Those are process symptoms with codebase causes — or the reverse — and the audit’s job is to say which, in writing, with evidence.
Tools scan; seniors read. The findings that matter — the architectural debt, the test theatre, the quiet corner-cutting — are found by people.
What three days buys
The code, read by seniors
Architecture, security posture, dependency health, test reality (not test theatre), and the specific places where AI-generated code cuts corners — read by engineers who build production systems for a living.
You get: findings with file-level evidence, ranked by risk.
The team and process, audited
Repo history tells the truth: real velocity, review discipline, testing habits, bus factor, and whether the delivery you are billed for is happening.
You get: an honest read on the people and process behind the code.
The prioritised fix plan
Not a wall of findings — a sequence: what is dangerous now, what is expensive later, what is cosmetic, with effort estimates on each.
You get: a plan any competent team can execute, including the one you have.
The conversations around it
A kickoff to aim the audit, and a results meeting to argue the findings — because a report nobody interrogates changes nothing.
You get: two 30–60 minute meetings with the auditing engineers themselves.
How it works
Kickoff meeting
Your concerns, our access — scope aimed where the risk is.
Code review & audit
Senior engineers read the codebase and the repo history against the four lenses above.
Report
Findings, evidence and the prioritised fix plan, in writing.
Results meeting, corrections, delivery
The findings argued live, final corrections made, the report delivered.
A ranked plan, not a wall of findings.
Proof, not claims
The auditors are builders — the same bench that ships and rescues production systems.
We fix what audits find
The team’s take-over record — including a 14-year backend rewritten in six months — means findings come with realistic fix estimates, not consultant shrugs.
A checkable standard
200+ clients, ten years, 100% Job Success on Upwork, 4.9/5 on Clutch — the bar the audit is conducted from is publicly visible.
An audit that reads the team as well as the code: repo history, tests, review discipline — because most bad codebases are symptoms of a delivery process, and the process is where the money goes.
The report is argued with you in a results meeting — because findings nobody interrogates change nothing.
Three days. Two meetings. One written truth.
Code & Developer Audit
Three days (up to 24 hours of senior work), including a kickoff meeting and a results meeting of 30–60 minutes each. The flow: kickoff → code review & audit → written report → results meeting → final corrections & delivery.
- Kickoff meeting to aim the audit at your actual risk
- Senior code review: architecture, security, dependencies, test reality
- Developer/vendor audit from repo history: velocity, review discipline, bus factor
- Written report with a prioritised, effort-estimated fix plan
- Results meeting (30–60 min), final corrections, delivery
Three days, up to 24 hours of senior work — dates confirmed at kickoff scheduling.

Code Review as a Service
A senior human engineer on every pull request, as a monthly subscription — before it reaches production.
AI Code Cleanup & Cloud Cost Optimization
AI-generated code refactored by senior engineers — leaner RAM, lighter DB load, a smaller cloud bill.
Product Rescue
A stalled or vibe-coded build, made production-grade — we take over where a vendor or a prototype stopped.
The faster AI builds, the more a three-day human read is worth. That trade is this product.
The questions buyers actually ask
Why audit the developers, not just the code?
Because a codebase is a symptom: the causes live in the delivery process. Repo history shows real velocity, review discipline, testing habits and bus factor — and whether the work you are billed for is happening. Auditing both halves is what makes the fix plan actually work.
Will our vendor know about the audit?
Your call. Many audits run with the vendor’s cooperation and improve the relationship — the report is written professionally enough to hand over directly. Where discretion is needed, read-only access is all we require and confidentiality is absolute.
Can you audit AI-generated code specifically?
It is the audit’s namesake specialty: we use AI tooling daily ourselves and know precisely which corners generated code cuts — error handling, migrations, security edges, test theatre. That fluency is what you are buying.
What access do you need?
Read-only repository access, and ideally CI and issue-tracker visibility — granted at kickoff under NDA. We do not need production access, and nothing is executed against live systems.
What if the audit finds everything is fine?
Then you get that in writing — an independent confirmation with evidence, which for diligence, board or vendor-trust purposes is worth exactly as much as a list of problems.
What happens after the report?
It is yours: execute with your team, hand it to the vendor, or engage us — many audits become rescues or Code Review as a Service subscriptions, but the report is deliberately written to stand alone.
