AI wrote your code.
It can't judge it.

Shippr is the senior engineering team you can't hire. It reads what AI built. Tells you what won't survive real users. Rebuilds it right — with you.

/the judgment layer

The code was the easy part.

A prompt gives you a working app by dinner. It won't tell you what survives real traffic — or what to fix first. That's the job. So we productized a team that does it.

Step 1 · Find

Know exactly where you stand.

Twelve questions. Five minutes. One number, 0–100 — and your three worst gaps, named in plain words. The ones a senior engineer would fix first. Not 400 findings you'll never read.

Step 2 · Fix

Fix it right. One call at a time.

Every gap comes with the exact fix, written for your builder — Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Cursor. Paste it in. We verify it worked before moving on. One fix a day, and you learn why it mattered.

/the method

Senior judgment, written down.

Judgment isn't a vibe. It's a method — run a hundred times, named, written down, and wired into the product.

architecture

Reference Architecture™

The calls a senior architect makes. Authorization as the real boundary. Billing as a ledger you can't overwrite. Complexity that grows inward. Principles, not products.

build order

LAPP Order™

Landing → Auth → Pricing → Product. The things builders bolt on last and break first, built first — in the order that survives.

playbooks

Blueprint Pack

One playbook per hard problem. Follow the pattern instead of guessing your way to production.

the 30-day plan

Glow-Up Map™

Your score becomes a 30-day plan. One fix a day. You always know which rung you're on — and what the next one is.

the honest no

Do-I-Need-That-Yet™

Half of senior judgment is knowing what you don't need yet. We'll save you the weekend building something a 40-user app will never touch. A scanner can't make that call.

/how it works · the crew

Six specialists. You never have to pick one.

Six agents. One senior specialist's judgment each — architecture, scale, reliability, security, operations. You never pick between them. Talk in plain words and the right one shows up. If you have to ask "which one do I use?" — that's our bug, not yours.

all 12 gates

The Architect

Your senior lead. Reads the whole app, scores its production-readiness, and hands each gap to the right specialist — worst-first.

gates 1–4

The Bouncer flagship

Your security specialist — the four gates that decide who's allowed to touch what. Locks the doors before real users arrive.

gates 5·8·9

The Firefighter

Reliability and incidents — errors, backups, monitoring. Makes sure a bad day is a bad hour, not a lost business.

gates 6·7

The Framer

Your architect. How it's built to hold up — load and database — and, half the time, the honest "you don't need that yet."

gates 11·12

The Sherpa

Turns your score into a 30-day, one-fix-a-day Glow-Up Map™ — and teaches you your own app so you can keep it alive.

certification

The Green-Light

The binary verdict — certified or not. A certificate that never bends is a certificate worth showing anyone.

/how it works · the twelve gates

Twelve gates.
Miss one and your users find it.

Every score, fix, and certificate runs these twelve — the list a senior team runs before they'd put their name on a launch. Security is four. The other eight are what actually breaks.

Including AI-native calls the last generation of tools never made — like keeping your inference behind a swappable adapter, so one model outage doesn't take you down.

/judgment, not noise

Other tools review a diff.
We judge your app.

A senior team's judgment, in words you already understand.
