“Sprint Zero did more in one sprint than our offshore team did in six months.”

— Denise DiSano, CEO at enCappture
Sound familiar?

The code isn't the problem. The decisions behind it are.

You’re paying five figures a month and can’t explain what you’re getting.

Your outsourced team picks frameworks they know, not what’s right. They can’t do responsive design or phased releases. Every conversation ends with “it will take more hours.” You’re stuck — not because you picked bad people, but because the model is broken.

You tried AI coding tools. They generated garbage.

Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code — your competitors rave about them. Your team tried and got unusable output. It’s not the tools. AI needs clean architecture: typed interfaces, modern patterns, testable code. Your codebase speaks a dialect they don’t understand.

Good engineers won’t touch this codebase. And you can’t blame them.

They clone the repo, see the mess, and quietly move on. You’re not losing candidates because your salary is low — you’re losing them because talented people refuse to fight architecture decisions made in 2018.

What this looks like in practice

Their outsourced team quoted $10K and three months. We shipped it in a week.

A 13-year-old SaaS company serving regulated financial institutions. One part-time developer who'd been the sole technical lead since the beginning. An outsourced dev shop pricing the redesign by the screen — 200 hours, $10K, building in a framework their own developer admitted wasn't his strength.

The founder needed the product ready for a conference in six weeks. The outsourced team couldn't do responsive design. Couldn't support phased releases. Was building screens that looked right but couldn't actually ship.

We audited the codebase, identified the real architecture, and rebuilt the frontend with AI-powered workflows. What their team quoted at 200 hours took us six. Then we restructured the backend migration plan so the founder's existing developer — who knew the product better than anyone — could maintain and extend it going forward.

The result

How it works

We go in, get it done, and hand you the keys.

01

The Audit Call

Day 0

Free. 30 minutes. Show us the repo. We tell you exactly what’s broken and what it’s costing you. No slides. No pitch deck. Just an honest read. If we’re not the right fit, we say so. If the problem is smaller than you think, we’ll tell you that too.

02

The Sprint

Days 1–25

We get repo access and go to work. Your team keeps shipping normally — we run in parallel. Our AI-powered workflow processes thousands of files while maintaining consistency across the entire codebase. Daily async updates in Slack. No status meetings. No standups. Just progress and a shared channel.

03

Handoff + Workshop

Days 26–30

We walk your team through everything that changed and why. Then we outfit every developer with AI workflows and tooling configured for your stack. They ship a real feature before the session ends. Your tech lead — the person who knows the product — is the handoff partner. We don’t replace them. We make them dangerous.

Everything you get

Nothing held back. Nothing extra to buy.

Full Codebase Modernization

We tear out the dead weight and rebuild with modern patterns. Legacy abstractions get replaced with clean, maintainable code. The spaghetti becomes something your team can reason about — and that AI tools can actually work with.

AI-Ready Architecture

TypeScript foundations. Clean interfaces. Testable structure. This is the difference between AI tools generating garbage and AI tools that make your developers 10x faster. Your code starts speaking a language that Claude, Cursor, and Copilot actually understand.

Team Workshop + Handoff

Half-day, hands-on. Not a lecture — a working session. We outfit your team with AI workflows, custom skills, and tooling configured for your stack. They ship a real feature before the session ends. Your technical lead walks away owning everything we built.

Custom AI Skills Package

The exact workflows, skills files, and AI commands we’ve spent two years building and refining. Configured for your specific stack, your naming conventions, your patterns. Your developers use them starting day one.

30-Day Support Window

Async access to our team for the first month after handoff. Code review on the first features shipped on the new architecture. Check-in calls at day 14 and 30. If something breaks, we’re there.

Hiring Playbook

Interview questions, evaluation rubrics, and red flags calibrated to your new stack. Your repo stops scaring away good candidates. One bad hire costs north of $200K in wasted salary, ramp time, and team disruption. This prevents that.

What it's worth — the math your CFO will run

Close two deals you'd otherwise lose to a security questionnaire — that's $60K+ back on a $35K investment. Planning to sell in the next 3–5 years? The difference between a modern codebase and one that signals “budget for a rewrite” is hundreds of thousands in acquisition price. Technical due diligence is where deals die.

The Performance Guarantee

We measure before and after. Vulnerability count, dependency health, test coverage, deployment frequency — hard numbers, not vibes. If your team isn't shipping features measurably faster within 30 days of completion, with the metrics to prove it, we keep working at no extra cost until they are. We don't get paid to rewrite code. We get paid to make your team faster. If that doesn't happen, we haven't earned the money.

Who you're working with

Two founders. A focused team. No runaround.

You email us, a real person replies. No ticket system. No chatbot. No offshore handoff at 2 AM. A small, focused team — with the two of us in your codebase from day one.

Vanessa Roberts

Vanessa Roberts

CEO · Partnerships

Four-time founder. Three successful exits. 20+ years scaling B2B SaaS companies — and a network most consultancies never get. Chances are, she's the reason you're on this page.

She runs the business end: strategy, partnerships, and the relationships that put the right work in front of the right people. When you book the audit call, she's the one you're talking to. When something needs to move mid-sprint, she's the one moving it.

Marcel Fahle

Marcel Fahle

CTO · Engineering

25 years building SaaS products, mobile apps, and full-stack systems. The last two spent going deep on AI-assisted engineering — not as a gimmick, but because it genuinely lets him do in days what used to take months.

Marcel is the one in your codebase: making architecture decisions, running quality control on AI output, and shipping code your team can actually maintain. This isn't vibe coding. It's engineering with a radically different toolkit.

Questions you probably have

Let's get these out of the way.

Stop paying for the problem. Fix it in 30 days.

30-minute call. We look at your codebase and tell you what's broken, what it costs you, and whether we can help. If we can't, you still walk away with an honest read on your architecture.
