Tapiki Launchpad
You built it. We'll ship it.
AI coding tools are incredible for building prototypes. But getting from "it works on my machine" to "it's live and handling real traffic" is a different skill set entirely. That's where we come in.
Sound familiar?
You used Cursor, Bolt, Replit, Lovable, v0, or ChatGPT to build something real — a website for your business, a web app for your idea, a tool for your team. It works locally. It mostly does what you want. But now you're stuck.
Deployment headaches
It runs on your laptop, but deploying to Vercel, Netlify, or AWS throws errors you can't debug. Environment variables, build configurations, and server-side rendering are a mystery.
Database confusion
You need a real database but don't know how to set one up, connect it securely, or migrate from the mock data you've been using. Authentication and user management feel impossible.
Performance problems
The site is slow, images aren't optimized, there's no caching, and you're not sure why Lighthouse gives you a score of 30. It works — just not well enough for real users.
Security concerns
API keys might be exposed, there's no input validation, no HTTPS setup, and you're worried about putting it live. You know it's not production-safe, but you don't know what to fix.
Code that's hard to maintain
The AI generated thousands of lines of code and you're not sure what half of it does. Making changes breaks things, and you're afraid to touch it.
Scaling uncertainty
It works for you, but what happens when 100 people use it at once? Or 1,000? You don't know if it'll hold up, and you can't afford to find out the hard way.
This isn't a failure. It's a starting point.
The fact that you built something functional with AI tools puts you ahead of most people. You had the vision, the drive, and the resourcefulness to create something from nothing. That's real.
But design, deployment, security, scaling, and long-term maintenance require a different kind of experience — the kind that comes from shipping hundreds of production applications over 17 years. That's what Tapiki brings to the table.
We're not going to judge your code or tell you that you should have hired a developer from the start. We're going to look at what you've built, figure out the fastest path to production, and get it done.
How we help
Three ways to launch your project
For projects that mostly work but won't deploy
Deploy & Fix
Starting from $1,500
- ✓ Full code review of your vibe-coded project
- ✓ Fix deployment and build errors
- ✓ Environment configuration and secrets management
- ✓ Deploy to Vercel with HTTPS and custom domain
- ✓ Basic performance and security check
- ✓ Written summary of what we found and fixed
Typical turnaround: 3–5 days*
Get startedFor projects that need real infrastructure
Production Ready
Starting from $3,500
- ✓ Everything in Deploy & Fix
- ✓ Database setup (Neon Postgres) with proper schema
- ✓ Authentication and user management
- ✓ Security hardening (input validation, API protection, HTTPS)
- ✓ Performance optimization (images, caching, lazy loading)
- ✓ Mobile responsiveness fixes
- ✓ SEO and AI model optimization
Typical turnaround: 1–2 weeks*
Get startedFor projects that need to be rebuilt right
Full Rebuild
Starting from $5,000
- ✓ Complete rebuild on production-grade infrastructure (Vercel + Neon)
- ✓ Your original design and functionality preserved — code rewritten properly
- ✓ Professional code architecture you (or another developer) can maintain
- ✓ Full database design, authentication, and API layer
- ✓ Performance, security, and SEO optimized from the ground up

How it works
From stuck to shipped in three steps
Send us your project
Share your GitHub repo, a zip file, or even a Replit link. Tell us what it's supposed to do, what's working, and where you're stuck. No technical explanation needed — just tell us in plain English.
We assess and recommend
We review your code and give you an honest assessment: what's solid, what needs fixing, and whether it makes more sense to repair or rebuild. You get a clear plan with a fixed price — no surprises.
We ship it
We fix, harden, or rebuild your project and deploy it to production on Vercel — the same infrastructure used by Nintendo, TripAdvisor, and the Washington Post. You get a live URL, clean code, and the confidence that it's built right.
Why Tapiki for this?
We use the same AI tools you do
We build with Cursor, Claude, and AI-assisted development every day. We understand what these tools produce — the good and the gaps. We know exactly where AI-generated code tends to fall short and how to fix it.
17 years of shipping production software
Over 200 websites and 50 apps deployed. Our founder worked at Apple, led technology at Bank of Hawaii, and has been building production systems since before AI tools existed. We know what production-ready actually means.
No judgment, no lectures
We're not going to tell you that you should have hired us first. You did something impressive — you built a working prototype. Now let's make it real.
You keep ownership
Your project stays yours. We use standard frameworks (Next.js, Astro) and open infrastructure (Vercel, Neon). No lock-in, no proprietary systems. If you ever want to move on, you take everything with you.
Don't let a good idea stay stuck on your laptop.
Send us your project — a GitHub link, a zip file, a Replit URL — along with a few sentences about what it does and where you're stuck. We'll review it and get back to you within one business day with an honest assessment and a clear path forward.
