Question 1

Do you need my passwords?

Accepted Answer

No. I need a repo invite, a test login for the app, and read-only access to Supabase or your hosting. Never send production passwords in chat or email.

Question 2

Will you touch production?

Accepted Answer

Not without your written OK. I start read-only, take a backup before I change anything, and every change ships as a pull request you can review and roll back.

Question 3

Do you sign NDAs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I can sign yours or send a short mutual NDA before you share access.

Question 4

Why a paid diagnostic?

Accepted Answer

Because a fixed price needs a real look first. The diagnostic gets you a ranked report and a fixed quote in 2 business days. The $250 is credited in full if you hire me for the fix within 30 days.

Question 5

What if the job is bigger than the package?

Accepted Answer

Before work starts, you get a full refund. After work starts, you pay only for work already performed and the rest of your deposit comes back. If the job turns out bigger than the package, I stop and re-quote before doing more.

Question 6

Do you charge hourly?

Accepted Answer

Only for small one-off tasks: $85/hr with a 1-hour minimum. Anything over 8 hours becomes a fixed-price package.

Question 7

Which builders do you support?

Accepted Answer

Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Cursor and v0, plus hand-written Next.js and React apps. Most AI-built apps I see run on Supabase, and that's where I go deepest.

Question 8

Can I keep using Lovable after?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fixes land in your repo, so your builder keeps working. I'll note anything the builder is likely to undo, like regenerated policies or keys moved back into the frontend.

Question 9

Rescue or rebuild?

Accepted Answer

Rescue, almost always. I'll only suggest a rebuild if fixing would cost more than starting over, and I'll tell you that in the diagnostic, before you pay for anything else.

Question 10

Is there anything you won't take on?

Accepted Answer

Payment-processing apps, health-data apps, pharma or life-sciences clients, and app store approvals. I also don't promise guaranteed savings or guaranteed security. Nobody honest can.
