Stabilize before adding features
Website and web application rescue
Get a plain-language diagnosis of what is broken, what is risky, and what is worth keeping—then fix the smallest set of issues that restores a reliable path to launch or growth.
Problems this can address
Start with observable friction.
- A redesign or AI-generated build looks finished but fails during deployment, forms, or mobile use.
- The previous developer disappeared and the business does not understand the accounts or code.
- Updates create regressions because tests, ownership, and deployment steps are unclear.
- Search, accessibility, performance, privacy, or security basics were treated as an afterthought.
What you receive
A usable build and an understandable handoff.
- Repository, dependency, deployment, form, and configuration inventory
- Prioritized findings separated into launch blockers, improvements, and accepted risks
- A fixed repair scope or an evidence-backed recommendation not to repair
- Verification covering build, responsive behavior, accessibility, headers, and critical journeys
A good first fit
The business is ready to answer these questions.
- You can provide authorized access to the relevant repository and provider accounts.
- There is a defined critical journey such as inquiry, purchase, login, or internal task.
- The business is willing to preserve working parts and remove unsupported complexity.
- You want an honest repair-versus-rebuild recommendation before committing to a large project.
Delivery process
Four visible decisions from problem to operation.
01
Inventory
Confirm the canonical code, deployment, domains, integrations, and current failure.
02
Reproduce
Create repeatable checks for the broken journey and the surrounding risks.
03
Repair
Fix blockers in priority order while preserving unrelated working behavior.
04
Prove
Rerun automated and browser checks, document remaining risks, and hand over the release state.
Service questions
Commercial and operating details.
Can you guarantee every existing build is repairable?
No. Some foundations carry licensing, security, data, or maintenance risks that make replacement the safer and less expensive recommendation. The review explains that tradeoff before a repair commitment.
Will you copy the site into a new stack?
Only with the owner's authorization and rights to the code, content, branding, and assets. A rescue does not create permission to copy third-party work.
Can you fix search rankings?
Technical issues can be diagnosed and improved, but no developer can guarantee indexing or ranking. Search growth also depends on useful content, reputation, demand, competition, and earned authority over time.
What access do you need?
Start with read-only access where possible. Write, deployment, domain, and production access are requested only when the approved task requires them, and account ownership remains documented.
Start with the real problem
What should work better?
One useful paragraph is enough. Jason will reply with a focused question, an initial direction, or an honest explanation of why custom software is not the right fit.
- No mailing list or sales handoff
