01
Assess it.
We look at what you have: the code, the setup, where it's breaking, and why. You get a plain-English answer: what's fixable, what isn't, and what it would take. This happens on the Diagnosis call, before any commitment.
We fix and rebuild Lovable, Bolt, and no-code AI apps that break in production.
Your AI app worked, until it didn't. It ran in the demo, maybe even for the first few weeks. Then something broke in production, and now you're stuck: customers hitting errors, features failing, and no one to call.
You moved fast with a tool like Lovable, Bolt, or a no-code AI builder. That was the right call for getting started. These tools are genuinely good at turning an idea into a working app quickly. The problem is what happens next: they weren't built to keep an app running reliably once real customers depend on it.
That's where we come in. We're a team of engineers with 20 years of production software behind us. We fix broken AI apps, rebuild the parts that can't be saved, secure them, and hand you code you own, with humans who answer when something breaks.
Book a Diagnosis call↗Rescue and rebuild work starts from $5K, scoped openly after the call.
If this is you, you're in the right place
People find us when they're typing things like:
My AI app keeps breaking.
It worked yesterday and doesn't work today. Nothing changed on your end; something changed underneath, and nobody's watching it.
Why did my AI chatbot stop working?
The model or API behind it moved, and the app didn't move with it.
My Lovable app is not working in production.
It looked perfect in the builder. Under real users, real data, and real load, it's falling apart.
Something's broken and I can't figure out why.
The code was generated fast and never understood by anyone, including the tool that wrote it.
My app works... but I have no idea if it's secure.
You're handling customer data and hoping for the best. Hope is not a security plan.
None of this means you did something wrong. Building fast and cheap to test an idea is exactly what those tools are for. What they don't give you is the part that comes after: someone who owns the code, keeps it secure, keeps it running, and answers the phone. Rescue is for an application that is broken in production now. If it still works but is unsupported, undocumented, or unable to grow, see Modernize / Rebuild legacy apps.
What we do with a broken AI app
No jargon. Here's the actual process:
02
Fix what's fixable.
If the foundation is sound, we repair the broken parts and stabilize the app so it runs reliably.
03
Rebuild what isn't.
If the generated code can't carry the load, and often it can't, we rebuild the app properly, designed for your real users and real traffic.
04
Secure it.
Access control, data protection, the boring essentials done right. Most fast-built apps are missing these entirely.
05
Hand you code you own.
In your repository, documented, readable by any competent developer. You're never locked into us.
06
Stay on if you want us.
A monthly support option covering monitoring, security patches, and upgrades as the AI models and platforms underneath keep moving. The same arrangement we run on our own products.
One team, start to finish. No hand-offs to whoever's available.
Proof, not promises
A track record you can check. Systenics has spent 20 years building, scaling, and supporting software that runs other businesses, for clients including Building Detroit, IITJobs, Pedigree Sales, HomeSale.Plus, and others.
I contracted with Systenics about 6 months ago, in an effort to customize auction software for a new company I am launching in the US. The entire process was as smooth as could be. Their estimate for the project was reasonable, and very close to the final number. I have so much confidence in their ability to work with me, I even agreed to a support agreement with them long term.
We run what we build. Every day.
These are live services with real users and real customer data, maintained by the same team that would work on your app. You can visit them right now and use them. When we say we support software after launch, we mean we're already doing it, for ourselves, every day.

A fast-built app vs a proper rebuild
| Vibe-builder / no-code app | Proper rebuild (us) | |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Fine in the demo; slows and breaks under real use | Built and tested for your real load, then monitored |
| Security | Often missing basics: access control, data isolation | Built in from the start; patched as threats change |
| Upgrades | Breaks when the AI models or platforms underneath move | Planned and handled: we watch the moving parts |
| Maintenance | Nobody | A support agreement with the team that built it |
| Who owns it | You, sort of, if you can read generated code | You. Documented, handed over, yours outright |

Fast tools are built to get you to a working app. A rebuild is built to keep it working. Different jobs.
Don't hire us if
We'd rather save you the call. We're probably not the right fit if:
- The app just needs one small fix and otherwise works fine. A freelancer for an afternoon will cost you less. We'll tell you that on the call.
- You're still testing whether the idea has legs. Stay in the fast tool; that's what it's for. Come back when real customers depend on the app.
- You want the cheapest possible option. We're not it. We're the option that costs less by the end of the year.
- The application still works but nobody can safely change it. That is Modernize / Rebuild legacy apps, not a production rescue. Rescue is for software that is broken in production now.
If none of that is you, and your app is broken, slow, or shaky with a real business riding on it, talk to us.
