Launch your AI-built app with confidence.
I help founders launch apps built with AI tools like Lovable and Replit. Security, performance, accessibility, and everything in between.
Summary
22 findings
An expert in your corner before real users arrive
Getting something to run and getting it ready for real users are two different jobs. I put my time into the parts that matter, and help you get them right, before other people depend on them.
I’m not here to judge your work
Building with AI is a smart way to move quickly, and I treat it that way. My job is to help you launch with confidence, not to grade how you got here.
You won’t have to start again
I rarely recommend throwing anything away. Most of what I find is straightforward to fix, and I’m clear about what’s genuinely worth your time.
You will know where you stand
You get an honest, prioritised take on where your app is today, and what, if anything, sits between you and launch.
Who you’ll be working with
Hello, I’m Eve
Lighthouse Software is me. I’ve spent seventeen years building software, from senior to principal engineer, and I started this to do one thing well: help founders get the app they have built in front of real users without it falling over.
When you book a Launch Plan, I’m the person who reads your code, uses your app, and writes your plan. Nobody hands you on to someone else, and you can ask me anything at any point.
Where I help
I cover everything that tends to decide whether a launch goes well. Each area below becomes a set of concrete, prioritised actions in your plan, and something I can help you put right.
Security
The gaps attackers look for, from logins to access control.
Privacy and data protection
GDPR basics: lawful data use, encryption and honouring requests.
Reliability and error handling
What happens when things go wrong, from errors to backups.
Performance
Speed where it counts, from load times to slow queries.
Scaling
Whether it holds up as real users and data arrive.
Deployment and operations
Shipping safely: deploys, rollbacks, monitoring and cost.
Code quality and maintainability
Whether the codebase is safe to change and hand over.
Accessibility and correctness
That it works for real people, across devices, browsers and inboxes.
Case studies
A few things I’ve built.
Stockholm events listing platform
An events platform, from AI prototype to launch
A nightly crawl finds new events across the sites they follow. Their team reviews a queue each morning instead of copying details across by hand.
Vividon
Fixing the lighting after the shoot
Getting studio lighting right takes hours of setup, and getting it wrong means booking the shoot again. Vividon relights the photograph afterwards, inside Photoshop, so that becomes an adjustment rather than a reshoot.
What people say
I’ve been shipping and running real software for 17 years.
“Quality is built into Eve’s work. Reviewing her code is easy, because it is already high quality, clean and maintainable, with tests to boot. She thinks ahead, asks the right questions, and gets straight to the core of the problem.”
Kirt Rainford Senior Fullstack Engineer, Thrive “One of the most talented and versatile developers I have ever met: brilliant at solving complex problems, deeply understanding business goals, and always delivering exceptional results. She consistently comes back with a clear, detailed plan for tackling a challenge.”
Isabel Llamas Senior Product Manager “Eve is exceptional at delivering software. She really listens and understands the problem in a way very few others do. She is one of the few people I have been around with the ability to get systems to function on their first deploy. She is the real deal.”

Have a free consultation first, get your fixed-price Launch Plan when you are ready, and bring me in for a fixed-price Launch Sprint to clear the blockers if you want to.
Free consultation
Not sure where you stand? A relaxed call, no pressure.
- A 30-minute call about your app
- We talk through the obvious risks and questions
- A sense of what getting ready would involve
- No obligation and no sales pressure
Launch Plan
The right first step for most apps getting ready to launch.
- An expert look across every area I cover
- One prioritised plan: what to fix, and in what order, to get live
- Plain English, with the technical detail needed to act on it
- A call to talk through the plan
- An NDA before you share anything, if you would like one
- Delivered in one to two weeks
- Credited in full if you take the work further with me
Launch Sprint
When you would rather I roll up my sleeves and clear the blockers with you.
- The cost of your plan credited towards the sprint
- A focused block of hands-on work, at a fixed price agreed up front
- I start at the top of your plan, with what stands between you and launch
- I work through the fixes with you, or take them on myself
- Anything beyond launch, I scope separately
Frequently asked questions
Everything you might want to know before getting started.
Will you make me rewrite everything?
Almost never. This isn’t about judging your code or telling you to start over. Building with AI is a good way to work, and most of what I find is smaller than people expect. I tell you what matters and leave the rest, so you spend your effort where it counts.
What do I actually get?
You get a Launch Plan: a written, prioritised list covering everything I looked at, what I found, and what to do about it. What to fix before you go live, what to sort out soon, and what’s safe to leave for later. From there I can help you work through the fixes, as much or as little as you want.
How long does it take?
The plan usually takes one to two weeks from the point I have access. Any hands-on work after that depends on what I find and how much you would like me to take on, and I agree it with you first.
Do I need to be technical?
No. The plan is written so a non-technical founder can follow it, with the technical detail there for whoever ends up doing the work.
What do you need from me?
Access to the code and a running version of the app, plus a short description of what it does and where it’s hosted. I’ll walk you through exactly what to share.
Is my code and data kept private?
Yes. Everything you share is treated as confidential, and I’m happy to sign an NDA before you send anything over.
What if you find something serious?
I flag it clearly and tell you how urgent it is. Finding it now, before your users do, is the whole point, and it’s far cheaper than dealing with it after launch.
Can you help me fix what you find?
Yes, and for most founders that’s the point. I build software as well as assess it, so I can work through the fixes with you and develop new features over time. Plenty of founders keep me on as a partner as their app grows. Whatever suits you, there’s no obligation.
What if I want you to do the fixing too?
If you decide to bring me in to put things right, the cost of your plan is credited in full against the Launch Sprint. So the plan is never money spent twice: it’s either a standalone deliverable you keep, or the first step of the work we do together.
How does AI actually work?
Glad you asked. I gave a talk on exactly that at TechNExt 2026. Watch “AI Under the Hood”, or go deeper with my other AI explainers.
