Lovable App Rescue
Take your Lovable app to production
Lovable gave you a good-looking app fast. We make it safe and real: database rules, authentication, payments, tests and deployment, with the code and every account in your name.

Lovable is very good at the part people see. In an afternoon you have screens, navigation and something you can click through and show an investor. The trouble starts when real people sign up, because the part they cannot see, who is allowed to read which row of data, was never the tool's job to get right.
Most Lovable projects we open are a React front end with a Supabase backend, synced to GitHub. That is a sound stack. What we usually find inside it is less sound: database tables with access rules missing or far too loose, business logic running in the browser where anyone can change it, keys sitting in client code, and no tests. None of that shows in a demo. All of it shows in production.
A fast, honest read of the exported code: what is worth keeping, what must be rebuilt, and where data is exposed today.
Row-level security written and tested table by table, so one customer can never read or edit another customer's data.
Pricing, permissions and anything that touches money moved out of the browser and behind an API.
Sign-up, login, password reset and roles that hold up, replacing demo accounts and open routes.
Stripe and transactional email wired with real keys and error handling, tested end to end with mock orders.
Hosting, domain, database and repository set up under your accounts, with monitoring and backups.
We read the repository and the database, then tell you plainly what stays and what goes.
Access rules, authentication and secrets are fixed first, before any new feature.
Validation, error handling and real integrations, tested with mock transactions.
Tests, monitoring and a deploy pipeline, launched under your accounts.
The mistakes we see most often, so you can avoid paying for them.
The most common and most serious gap. If access rules are missing, anyone with the public key can read the table. It is invisible in a demo and the first thing we check.
Asking the tool to fix the same error again and again tends to add code rather than remove the cause. At some point a person has to read it.
If the price, the discount or the permission check runs on the client, a user can change it. Anything that matters belongs on the server.
A preview link with seeded data is a prototype. Real users bring bad input, slow networks and two people editing the same record at once.
Yes. Lovable produces real, standard code, so an experienced team can export it, audit it, keep what is good and build the secure backend it needs. We then deploy it under your accounts with the code in your name.
Not by default. The gaps we find most often are database tables without proper access rules, logic that runs in the browser, and keys in client code. None of them are hard to fix once someone looks, which is why the audit comes first.
Usually not. Supabase is a capable production platform built on PostgreSQL. The problem in most projects is how it was configured, not the platform itself. We fix the rules, the schema and the keys, and only recommend a move when your product has outgrown it.
You can, with care. The code lives in your repository, so new interface work can still come from the tool. We set up a review step and tests so a generated change cannot quietly undo the security work.
It depends on the structure. A clean project is worth finishing. A tangled one with no real data model can cost more to untangle than to rebuild the core. A short audit answers that before you commit budget, and we tell you honestly which case you are in.
For a clean prototype, hardening and launching is often a few weeks. The audit gives you a timeline and a fixed scope before any work starts.
The full ai app rescue service this specialism is part of.
Bolt.new got you a working prototype in the browser. We give it a real server.
You built it in Cursor and it works on your machine. We review the whole codebase.
v0 gave you an interface that looks finished. We keep it.
Replit let you build and host in one place. We make what you built safe for real users.
