Plenty of people build their first app by asking ChatGPT (or Claude) to write the code — and honestly, it writes decent code. The last stretch — auth that holds, a backend that’s truly wired up, a deploy that sticks — is where most people get stuck. That stretch is our whole job. A US$29 scan names every problem in plain English; fixes are fixed-price and receipted.
Get the US$29 scan Or talk it through with Rob — freeNot because you did it wrong — because this is the part that’s real engineering:
We run an AI build factory ourselves and publish our numbers. Across our last 387 builds, 27.6% could not reach a working, shipped state without a human stepping in — 39% for apps with real backends. And the most common root cause, by a mile — nearly 9 in 10 of the failures we measured — is a front end that looks finished but never properly talks to its backend. Industry-wide it’s no better: one scan of 5,600 live AI-built apps found 2,038 critical vulnerabilities. None of this means the tools are bad. It means the last stretch is real engineering — and that stretch is our whole job.
We read your app end to end and name every defect in plain English — security, wiring, broken flows. The US$29 is credited toward any fix.
You see the verdict, the exact findings and the fixed price before you commit — Quick Fix US$149, Rescue US$299, Launch Ready US$599.
Every approved finding is closed, verified end to end, and receipted — then it’s handed back running. Yours: code, accounts, everything.
Your code, your accounts, your app — we work inside what you own and hand it back running. If you’d rather we kept watch after the fix (hosting, upkeep, security), Manage starts at US$19/mo and you can leave any time. Fixing apps built with other tools too — see all fix pages or the full Launchr Mechanic service.
Launchr is an independent repair service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ChatGPT or its makers. We think it’s a great tool — we’re just the ones you call for the last stretch.
Almost never. The scan reads what you’ve built and names every defect in plain English. If it’s fixable, we fix exactly that. If a rebuild would genuinely be cheaper, we say so before you spend a cent on fixes.
The scan is US$29, credited toward any fix. Fixes are fixed-price: Quick Fix US$149, Rescue US$299, Launch Ready US$599 — and you approve the exact scope before we start. No hourly meter, ever.
Access to the code — an export or a repo invite — and the hosting details if it’s deployed. We tell you exactly what and how. You keep ownership of every account throughout.
Every finding in your accepted fix scope is closed, re-checked and receipted, or you don’t pay for that fix. If your app needs more than your chosen tier covers, the rest stays documented in your report and is quoted separately before any work starts.
