I take over abandoned software
and get it live in time
Who I've done this for before
CPI2025
An over-engineered recruiting platform its own team couldn’t launch, cut down until it shipped
Doof! Media2024
An embarrassing WordPress site, rebuilt from scratch and carrying the show years later
CAI International2022
A legacy macOS app that had to become a web app before a merger deadline
What it'll cost you
- LookoverFree
- You upload a zip or send me a repo link
- Within three working days I’ll email you a condition report:
- what the software actually does: its jobs, its data, what it’s connected to
- what’s worth carrying over and what isn’t
- the worst things found in the code
- Plan€3,500 · 5 days
- We get on a video call and you walk me through your situation
- Five working days after the call, I’ll email you the plan:
- what gets built
- the order it gets built in
- a binding price and deadline for every phase
- Takeoverfrom €20,000
- I implement the phases lined out in the plan
- This is usually three phases: demo, release, post-release features
- Maintenancefrom €750/month
- I keep it running
- I stay for up to half a year or until your own developer takes over
- Every phase is paid up front
- If I miss a deadline, that payment comes back in full
Before you message me
- The software has to exist already
- I work alone
- I take the whole thing: the codebase, the deploys, and the technical decisions
