Technical Audit

Technical audit for your codebase and infrastructure

A technical audit is a two-week, fixed-scope deep-read of your codebase, infrastructure, and team practices that produces a prioritised list of risks and fixes — so you know exactly what's slowing you down and what to do about it.

What's in the report

You get a written, prioritised assessment, not a vague verdict: architecture and code quality, security and data-protection gaps, infrastructure and deployment risks, test coverage, and the team practices behind them. Every finding is ranked by impact and effort, with a concrete recommendation — the difference between 'your code has issues' and 'here are the five things to fix first, in order, and why.'

When to get one

Before you acquire or invest in a product and need technical due diligence; when velocity has quietly collapsed and nobody can say why; before a rewrite, so you don't throw away what works; or when a previous team left and you've inherited a codebase you don't trust. An audit is the cheapest way to find out what you're actually dealing with.

How it runs

Two weeks, fixed fee, fixed scope. I read the code, the infra, and the history, talk to the people who built it, and reproduce the problems that matter. You get the report and a walkthrough call — and if you want the fixes implemented, the audit rolls naturally into a build or fractional-CTO engagement.

What you get

  • A prioritised, written risk register — ranked by impact and effort
  • Architecture, security, infrastructure, and test-coverage review
  • GDPR / data-protection gap check
  • A walkthrough call to talk through the findings
  • A clear, ordered remediation plan you can hand to any team

Technical Audit — questions

What is a technical audit and what's in the report?

A technical audit is a two-week, fixed-scope review of your codebase, infrastructure, and team practices. The report is a prioritised risk register — architecture, security, GDPR, infra, and test gaps — each finding ranked by impact and effort with a concrete recommended fix.

How long does an audit take and what does it cost?

Two weeks for a fixed fee and fixed scope. You get the report plus a walkthrough call. If you want the findings implemented, the audit rolls into a build or a fractional-CTO retainer — you get the exact fee on the intro call.

Can the audit cover GDPR and EU data residency?

Yes. Data-protection and GDPR gaps are part of every audit, and recommendations include EU-resident hosting and architecture changes where data residency matters.
