Launch Ready

It works. Now let's get it live properly.

You've built something good with Lovable, Replit, Bolt or Cursor, and real customers are about to depend on it. We'll put it somewhere solid: hosting you own, backups that actually restore, safe deploys and the security basics done right. Fixed price, agreed after a free call.

Launch checklist
Booking app, built with an AI tool · going live
✓Hosting in your own account, sized for real traffic
✓Your domain, SSL, and email that doesn't land in spam
✓A staging copy, so changes are tried before they're live
✓Backups, and a test restore to prove they work
✓Logins and permissions checked on the server
Monitoring, so we hear about problems first

You don't need a lecture about your code. You need it running somewhere solid.

Getting something working is the hard, creative bit, and you've done it. What the builder tools don't do is the dull, important part of running it for real: where it lives, what happens when it falls over at 9pm, whether yesterday's data is still there tomorrow, and whether one customer can ever see another's.

Maybe you want to sell it as a product. Maybe a client wants their own copy. Maybe you just want to stop worrying every time you press publish. That's what this is for.

Rather do it yourself? Our guide to getting your AI-built app live covers it tool by tool, free and ungated.

Live, solid, and yours

  1. Proper hosting in an account in your name, sized for real customers rather than a demo.
  2. Your domain, SSL, and email set up so it actually arrives.
  3. Deploys that don't break things: a staging copy to try changes, then a safe way to put them live.
  4. Backups on a schedule, and a test restore so you know they work.
  5. The security basics done on the server: secrets out of the code, logins and permissions checked where they can't be bypassed.
  6. Monitoring and alerts, and a short handover note of what's where.

Then, if you want it, we keep it that way. Our Look after it plan covers updates, backups and monitoring every month from £355 + VAT. It's offered, not forced: plenty of people take the setup and run it themselves.

If we spot something along the way that shouldn't go live as it is, we'll say so plainly and give you a fixed price to sort it. Your call what gets done.

Two things people often add

Both are quoted on their own, so the core stays simple.

Turn it into a product

Sign-ups, customer accounts, each customer's data kept properly apart, and billing with Stripe. The difference between something you use and something you can sell.

A copy for each client

Packaged so each client gets their own copy, on their servers or ours, and updates go out to all of them without anyone copying files about by hand.

A free call, a fixed price, then live

  1. A free call. You show us what you've built and where you want it to go.
  2. A fixed price. Usually straight from the call. If what's under the bonnet isn't clear, we'll suggest a System Review first, so we're not pricing blind.
  3. We set it up and walk you through it before anything changes for your customers.
  4. It goes live, and you decide whether we look after it from there.

The four things people ask

It's a fixed price, agreed before we start. We work it out on a free call, because it depends on what you've built with and what it needs to do. If it isn't clear from the call, we'll suggest a System Review first (£250 + VAT) so we're not pricing blind.

Not necessarily. Some people want to keep making changes in Lovable or Replit and have it deploy somewhere solid; others want to move off the builder completely. We'll tell you honestly which suits what you've built, and why.

You do. The hosting, the domain and the code sit in accounts in your name, and we hand over a note of what's where. If you ever move on from us, nothing is held back.

We'll tell you plainly, with a fixed price to sort it, before anything goes live. Most of the time it's a short list. It's your call what gets done.

Let's get it live

Tell us what you've built. We'll tell you what it takes to run it properly.

What it does, what you built it with, and where you want it to be in a few months. A link to it helps if you have one.

Rather just talk to someone? 01474 639 089, Monday to Friday.

Fixed price before anything starts. We reply within one working day.
