Someone to keep your product running after launch
Launch is the start of the work. Plugins need updates, PHP versions reach end of life, and something always breaks on a Friday evening when nobody's watching. We look after live products, including ones we didn't build.

Who it's for
- 01
Your only developer left, and nobody else knows how the site is set up.
- 02
Your site runs on PHP 7.4 or an old WordPress version that no longer gets security fixes.
- 03
Small bugs pile up because nobody on the team has time to look at them, and customers have started to notice.
- 04
You want backups handled before something goes wrong.
What we do
- 01
Take over the project: access, hosting, code and the things nobody wrote down.
- 02
Write the missing documentation.
- 03
Fix bugs and ship small improvements on a schedule you agree to.
- 04
Run updates and upgrades, including PHP 8 and WordPress, tested on a copy of the site before the live one.
- 05
Check that backups exist and actually restore, and set up error tracking in Sentry and uptime monitoring so we hear about problems before your customers do.

BackyardDesign.de: a 13-site WordPress setup we've worked on since the start, adding features and optimising what's there.
With Codality, we are integrating new functionality and also optimizing what has already been done.
From first call to launch, in five steps
- 01
Discovery
We learn your goals and agree on scope, timeline and budget.
- 02
Planning
Ideas become a concrete plan and a list of features.
- 03
Development
We build and test, with a working link every week.
- 04
Testing and launch
Final checks, your approval, then deployment.
- 05
Support
We stay on to maintain and improve the product.
How we use AI
At Codality our developers use AI coding assistants like Claude Code for routine code and tests, so less of your budget goes on boilerplate. A developer reviews and tests every change, and answers for what ships. Rather keep your code away from AI? Say so, and we'll work without it.
We charge $40 an hour. For a new product, the MVP calculator gives you a price range and a timeline in about 1 minute. Fixed price works too.
Estimate your MVPQuestions founders ask us
Didn't find yours?
Yes. We get access, review the code and tell you what we'd fix first.
Someone else on the team picks the project up, and the documentation means nothing lives in one person's head.
Two ways, both at $40 an hour. Pay for the hours we spend, or book a fixed block of hours each month, so there's always time set aside for your product.
Send us the site address and the error text. We reply within 1 working day.
