Technical Audits & QA
We check your website, app or software inside and out, test it the way customers use it, and tell you plainly what’s wrong, what’s risky and what to fix first.
An honest check of what you have.
Businesses buying, inheriting or relying on software built by someone else, and teams preparing for investment or a big launch.
- Code review
- Software audit
- Security audit
- Penetration test
- Software testing
- QA
What you can do with it
Common ways businesses use Technical Audits & QA. Yours can be any of these, a mix, or something new.
- 01
Inherited software
Find out what you really own before building on it.
- 02
Pre-launch QA
Test everything before customers see it.
- 03
Due diligence
A technical review for investors or acquisitions.
- 04
Test automation
Automatic checks that run on every change.
Everything it takes, handled
Know the real state of your software. Risks found before they become incidents. A prioritised, costed fix list.
- Code and architecture review
- Security and performance testing
- Manual and automated QA
- Report with priorities and estimates
- Training & ongoing support
How a Technical Audits & QA project runs
A clear process with a fixed scope, regular check-ins and nothing launched until you approve it.
- Step 01Week 1
Discover
A free call to understand your goals, users and budget. You get a written proposal with a fixed scope, timeline and price.
- Step 02Approval before build
Design
We map the experience and design the key screens. You review and approve before anything is built.
- Step 03Progress you can see
Build & test
We build in short cycles and share progress in your client workspace, then test on real devices for speed, security and accessibility.
- Step 04Ongoing
Launch & support
We launch, train your team and stay on hand with support, updates and improvements as you grow.
Built for performance and scale
Static analysis, dependency and OWASP checks, architecture review, load testing with k6, Playwright end-to-end automation and axe accessibility audits. Documented, secure by design, and the source code is yours.
