Redirect URLs, session callbacks, environment variables, and row-level security all need to agree.
AI-built app rescue studio
Ship the app your AI builder left half-alive.
Neon App Rescue turns broken prototypes into working products: paid tools, portals, dashboards, lead magnets, custom WordPress workflows, and business systems people can actually use.
Diagnosis is credited toward repair when the work moves forward.

Recognize this?
The Problems Usually Have Names
Most rescue jobs start with one of these symptoms. The useful work is tracing the symptom back to the actual system failure.
Webhook secrets, live/test mode, event handling, and idempotency are common culprits.
Dependencies, server/client boundaries, build output, and missing environment variables get checked directly.
Generated schema drift, mismatched types, missing migrations, and fragile API assumptions show up fast.
Responsive polish, navigation, forms, overflow, and real viewport testing are handled before launch.
That usually means the app needs a smaller, clearer architecture and a repair plan instead of another prompt.
Checkout appears to work, but accounts, orders, emails, or subscriptions never update correctly.
Auth, RLS, tables, redirects, and generated API assumptions are fighting each other.
The app is useful enough to ship, but needs mobile polish, deployment checks, copy, errors, and handoff notes.
What I fix
The Messy Middle Between Generated and Launched
AI app builders are fast at getting to a prototype. Shipping still needs product judgment, debugging, integrations, responsive polish, and the calm patience to untangle code that keeps breaking somewhere else.
Core Repairs
Error loops, broken flows, and unstable generated code
I trace the actual failure, repair the underlying code path, and make sure the fix does not quietly break another part of the app.
Accounts + Data
Authentication, Supabase, databases, and permissions
Login flows, account state, row-level security, migrations, data shapes, and admin access get checked as one connected system.
Money + Launch
Stripe, APIs, WordPress, WooCommerce, and deployment
Payment webhooks, third-party APIs, app hosting, environment variables, DNS, and plugin integrations get pushed to working production.

Good fit
Best For Apps With a Real Goal, Not Just a Vague Idea
The strongest rescue projects already have a purpose: a lead magnet, client portal, paid tool, internal workflow, ecommerce helper, or app that needs to become stable enough for real people.
Great Fit
You have a half-built app that almost works
There is already a project, repo, preview URL, Supabase project, or deployment that needs debugging and launch judgment.
Great Fit
You need a practical business tool
Quizzes, calculators, portals, dashboards, directories, generators, approval flows, and custom admin tools are all in range.
Not Ideal
You only want unlimited experiments
If there is no launch target, success definition, or owner for decisions, the first step should be a product-shaping session.
Pricing
Start Small, Then Rescue Only What Is Worth Rescuing
The first job is finding out whether the app needs a small repair, a focused sprint, or a more serious finish-and-launch pass.

Case study
From Fragile Workflow to Shippable Product System
External Products for WooCommerce is the kind of thinking App Rescue uses: take a messy operational workflow, make it safer, previewable, diagnosable, and useful for real business owners.
- Problem
- Etsy sellers needed external listings represented on WooCommerce sites without rebuilding everything by hand.
- System
- CSV preview, duplicate detection, external-product creation, link checks, diagnostics, and clearer admin UX.
- Proof
- Ecommerce workflows, WordPress development, defensive UX, and product judgment under real constraints.
Agency partner
White-Label Help For the Technical Thing Your Client Just Asked For
Brand, web, marketing, and content agencies can bring in Neon when a normal site project suddenly needs a custom tool, login flow, data workflow, or finished AI-built app.
- Finish a client project started in Lovable, Replit, Bolt, Cursor, Base44, or v0.
- Turn a spreadsheet, form, or approval process into a usable internal tool.
- Add custom WordPress, WooCommerce, Supabase, Stripe, or API behavior without hiring full-time.
- Keep the agency relationship intact while the technical implementation gets handled quietly.
Why Neon
AI Speed Plus Twelve Years of Web Shipping Scars
I use AI-assisted development, WordPress and WooCommerce experience, product taste, and hands-on debugging to finish useful software faster than a traditional agency engagement.

Process
A Calm Path Out of the Tangle
You do not need to know the perfect technical diagnosis before reaching out. Send the app, the builder, the repo or preview link, and what changed right before it got stuck.
Send the current state
Share the app link, repo access if available, hosting platform, database provider, screenshots, and the exact thing blocking launch.
Get a plain-English diagnosis
I identify the blockers, explain the repair path, and tell you whether the app needs a contained fix, rescue sprint, or bigger finish pass.
Repair, verify, and hand off
The work is checked in the real environment, not just described. You get a cleaner app, launch notes, and a clear record of what changed.
After payment
The Rescue Starts With Clean Handoff, Not Chaos
Stripe handles the payment. The paid intake gathers the technical story. Sensitive access is only shared after the project path is confirmed.
Pay through Stripe
Pick diagnosis, a contained fix, a sprint deposit, or a care plan from the pricing section.
Complete paid intake
Send the app URL, repo or preview link, builder, deadline, screenshots, and the exact thing blocking launch.
Secure access handoff
Do not paste secrets into forms. Repository, hosting, Stripe, or database access is handled after the fit is confirmed.
Repair notes
You get a clear summary of what changed, what was verified, and what still needs attention before launch.

Clear Expectations Make the Rescue Safer
These are plain-English service terms, not scary legal wallpaper.
Diagnosis is not a repair guarantee
The diagnosis identifies blockers and recommends the repair path. Some apps are better rebuilt in smaller pieces.
Access is required for implementation
Code, hosting, database, Stripe, domain, or platform access may be needed before repair work can begin.
Third-party platforms can still change
Repairs are verified against the current environment, but Lovable, Supabase, Stripe, Vercel, WordPress, and other tools remain external systems.
Repair scope is agreed before work starts
Contained fixes, rescue sprints, and finish-and-launch jobs are scoped before payment beyond diagnosis.
Emergency timelines may cost more
Rush work depends on availability, risk, and how much access is ready at the start.
Payment starts the diagnosis queue
The $75 diagnosis is credited toward repair when the project moves forward.
Intake form
Send the App Details in One Clean Pass
This form sends the request to Joshua and stores a local backup on the subdomain. Do not paste passwords or private keys here; share sensitive access only after the project is accepted.

FAQ
Before You Send the App
A few useful boundaries so the first conversation can move quickly.
Do you need repo access? +
Usually yes for repairs. A preview URL is enough for diagnosis, but fixing code, environment variables, Supabase, Stripe, or deployment normally requires controlled access.
Can you work with WordPress too? +
Yes. WordPress, WooCommerce, plugin integrations, custom admin tools, and app-to-WordPress workflows are part of the lane.
What if the app should be rebuilt? +
The diagnosis will say so. Sometimes the fastest rescue is replacing a fragile generated path with a smaller, sturdier implementation.
