Code audit and Modernization plan services
Stop guessing what’s wrong with your app.
With our code audit services, you can reveal critical risks and hidden vulnerabilities in your codebase and fix them all step by step using our detailed modernization plan.
When does your product need a code audit?
A professional code audit is an in-depth check-up of your codebase that helps prevent up to 90% of critical development issues, hidden bugs, and security risks.
-
Your app's security is at risk
Outdated libraries, weak authentication logic, or unvalidated inputs can expose your app to attacks like SQL injection or XSS, putting sensitive data and customer trust at risk. A code audit spots these issues early and recommends fixes, reducing security risks.
-
Performance drops or scaling fails
Redesign helps you modernize your digital product or its specific parts, such as the admin panel, checkout page, or user dashboard. Our designers will assess your current design, address your concerns, and deliver a user-focused update that aligns with the latest design trends.
-
Your codebase is hard to maintain
With MVP design services, you can bring your idea to life. Our analysts will define key requirements and identify essential features, then our designers will craft an MVP design to cost-effectively test your concept.
What our code audit process includes
Our code audit service is designed to uncover hidden flaws, security vulnerabilities, and performance issues using a combination of automated tools and hands-on expert analysis. Here's how we do it
What is the modernization plan?
After our thorough code audit, we provide a detailed report with insights into identified issues and practical recommendations for resolving them. It includes
-
01. A work breakdown structure (WBS) format document
The modernization plan is structured in a WBS-style format with a clear, hierarchical breakdown of tasks and findings to support easy planning and execution.
-
02. Detailed list of code issues
All bugs, vulnerabilities, and architectural problems discovered during the code audit are documented with relevant technical context.
-
03. Priority breakdown
Each issue is categorized by priority level: low, medium, or high, helping you address the most critical problems first.
-
04. Estimated fix time & risk assessment
For every issue, we estimate the time required to fix it and outline the potential risks of leaving it unresolved, so you can plan your modernization strategy effectively.
-
05. Issue prioritization plan
We organize issues into logical groups with a fixed roadmap, showing what can be addressed immediately, what can be postponed, and how to sequence the work efficiently.
-
Code audit delivery time: 5–10 business days.

Frequently asked questions
-
What’s the difference between a code audit and a code review?
A code review is typically done by your in-house team or collaborators during development to catch bugs and ensure consistent coding standards. A code audit is a deep, independent evaluation of your entire codebase, conducted by external experts.
Our code audit service includes both automated and manual code analysis, and covers security, performance, architecture, and maintainability. A source code audit provides strategic insights that reduce technical debt and prepare your system for scaling, investment, or acquisition.
-
When should I consider a code audit?
You should consider a website code audit or code audit for web applications in the following situations:
- Your app is slow, buggy, or hard to scale
- You’re preparing for a major update, investor pitch, or acquisition
- You're switching development vendors or onboarding a new team
- You suspect security vulnerabilities or inconsistent legacy code
- You’re a non-technical founder who needs clarity on your codebase
Our dedicated team, with over 12 years of software development experience, provides code audit services for startups and enterprises, helping identify issues before they become costly problems and ensuring your product is stable, secure, and ready for growth
-
How do I prepare for a code audit?
To get started with our code audit service, you simply:
- Submit a request and describe your goals, concerns, or challenges
- Sign an NDA for secure collaboration
- Grant us access to your codebase and related documentation
- Optionally, provide context around past development or team transitions
The more context you provide, the more tailored our code auditing recommendations will be.
-
Can I request a code audit for a specific module or part of the application?
Yes, absolutely! We offer targeted code audits focused on specific features, modules, or critical components of your application.
Whether you're concerned about performance, security, maintainability, or code quality, we tailor our audits to meet your exact needs.
-
How much does a code audit cost?
The cost of code audit services depends on the size, complexity, and scope of your application. For example, a Ruby on Rails code audit of a small MVP will require less effort than a full technical debt audit in a legacy codebase.
We offer flexible pricing models for startups and growing teams. Reach out to get a tailored estimate based on your needs.
-
How long does a code audit take?
Most code audit services take between 5-10 business days or up to 2 weeks, depending on the depth of analysis and size of the codebase.
A basic website code audit can be completed quickly, while a full code audit before app scaling or investment may involve more time.
-
Is the code audit process confidential?
Absolutely. Every code audit service we provide is covered by a signed NDA before access is granted. Your source code and business data remain fully protected throughout the code auditing process.
