You built an app with AI. Now a customer wants to know it’s safe.
I get your app ready to meet the technical rules of your field, running on cloud accounts in your name, and hand you the written evidence for whoever asks.
I'll tell you what I'd fix first in what you've built, and why.
Who this is for
You built your app with an AI tool, and one of these is true.
-
Your field has rules about client records
You are a therapist, an advisor, an accountant, or an attorney, and the law protects what your app holds.
-
Someone just asked where your data lives
A customer or an investor has a deal on the line and wants to know who can reach it.
What AI tools leave you to solve - Built something with AI? Here's where most people get stuck.
Nearly everyone gets stuck at the same point, and it is rarely the code that stops them.
Your app isn’t secured
Passwords written into the code, a sign-in page anyone can guess at, and no guarantee each person reaches only their own records.
You don’t control the infrastructure
On the AI tool’s own hosting, a pricing change or a closed account can take your app offline, and you cannot say where your data is kept.
Your field has rules your app has to meet
Health records, financial data, and legal matters carry technical rules, and the tool you built with has no idea they apply to you.
Getting it live is harder than it looks
Pressing “deploy” gives you no backups, no way to undo a bad change, and no warning when the app stops working.
AI can build the app. It cannot tell you what it will cost to run each month, whether your customers’ data is safe, or what happens the day it goes down.
I'll tell you what I'd fix first in what you've built, and why.
Compliance-Ready Deployment - In a regulated field? Your app has rules to meet.
I work through your app against the rules your field imposes, fix what does not meet them, and write down what was done. The written record is the part you can hand to whoever asks.
What I do
I configure your app and the cloud it runs on to meet the technical rules, then produce the written evidence that it was done. That is the part that needs an engineer.
What stays yours
Your written policies, staff training, the person you name as responsible, your ongoing review, and the statement you sign. I tell you which is which, in writing, before we start.
HIPAA for health records, the FTC Safeguards Rule for financial and tax data, and their equivalents in law and insurance.

Services - Get your app online, and keep it there.
Two ways to get deployed, and three ways to look after it afterward. You get a fixed quote before any work starts.
Get it online
Both are one-time work and do the same engineering. The higher tier adds the written record that the rules were met.
-
Secure Cloud Deployment
From $2,495
For an app that does not hold protected records. I move it onto cloud accounts in your name: set up correctly, secured, backed up, and watched.
-
Compliance-Ready Deployment
From $6,000
For an app that holds health records, financial and tax data, or legal matters. Everything in a Secure Cloud Deployment, plus the written evidence the rules of your field ask for.
Keep it there
After the app is live. Changes and upkeep, or the daily check on its own at $49/month, both priced monthly. And a one-off review of what your cloud is costing you.
-
Keep your app running
From $750/month
After the deployment. Security updates, hours each month for changes to the app I deployed, and a regular look at your hosting bill. Priced by the hours the month covers.
-
Safeguards Assessment
From $2,000
For a live app that holds health records, financial and tax data, or legal matters. I work through it against the rules of your field, control by control, and write up where it stands. Fixing anything is quoted separately.
-
A daily check on your app
$49/month
For an app that is already live. I check every day that it is up and answering, you get a written report once a month, and anything I find is priced before anything is done.
-
Cloud Cost Review
From $1,500
For an app that has been running a while and a bill that has crept up. I read what you were billed against what your app used, and write up where the money goes.

How getting your app online works - Simple, clear, no surprises.
Four steps from your first message to a live, secured app: a free review, then three paid milestones you approve one at a time.
Tell me about your app
Book the free review or send a message. No technical detail needed. You leave with a fixed quote and nothing owed.
I review what you have
The first milestone. I write down what has to happen before your app can go online safely, what it will cost to run, and how long it takes.
I get it deployed and secured
The second milestone. I build the hosting, secure the app, and set up who can get in. You try it on a private test address only you and I can see.
You get the keys
The third milestone. Your app goes live, and I hand over a written record of every account, password, and security setting, with a walkthrough.
A recent project - What this looks like in practice.
The owner of a solo consulting practice came to me with an app they had built with an AI coding tool. I rebuilt how it runs: who can sign in, what each person can reach, and where the data sits, and left them a written record their own team could work from.
I finally feel like I actually own my app.
Why not just use the hosting that came with your AI tool?
For a lot of apps you should, and I will tell you so on the call. The hosting built into these tools is good, and if your app does not hold records the law protects, it may be all you ever need.
If your app holds records the law protects, the platform you built on will tell you the same thing I do: move it to cloud accounts in your name, set up by a developer.
