Rescue and takeover

We make your existing software clearer, faster and ready for AI. Step by step, alongside live operation, no big-bang rewrite.

What it involves

Four things that are really part of the work.

  • Review of code, dependencies and infrastructure with written findings.
  • Removal of the patterns that slow the whole system down; usually there are a few and they repeat.
  • Gradual separation of the parts that change most often. Not a rewrite of the whole.
  • Preparing the system so that AI can be connected to it and the data can be read.

When it makes sense

The system works, but every change takes longer than the previous one and nobody dares to touch certain places.

When we will talk you out of it

The system is past the point where fixing pays off, and you know it. Then it is more honest to build a new one, and we will say so even though it is the more expensive option for us.

How we proceed

After every step you can decide whether to continue.

  1. 01

    Findings

    A review of code, dependencies and operations. The output is a list of risks by severity, not a general recommendation.

  2. 02

    Priorities

    Together we choose what gets done now, what can wait and what should not be touched at all.

  3. 03

    Changes

    We work in parts alongside live operation. Every step can be rolled back.

  4. 04

    Stabilization

    Tests and monitoring where there were none, so the state does not return. We leave with less code than we found.

In practice

Taken over, stabilized, still running.

  • Kappka: taken over after six months with another team. E2E tests first, then a backend rewrite to Python and Django in two months. Still running today.
