PXL AUDIT RESCUE

We rescue software projects that stalled, stopped or drifted.

When a project was left half-finished, the supplier disappeared, the internal team could not finish it, or it was generated with pure AI and no technical supervision, we step in to stabilise it, put it into production and give you back control of the product.

What's included

A modular scope, set by urgency and the state of the project

Who it's for

Is PXL Audit Rescue what you need?

We'll help you decide quickly. If we are not the right match, we point you to who is.

This is not for you if…

  • You only need a planned refactor with no urgency (that is PXL Project)
  • Nothing has been built yet (that is PXL MVP or PXL Software from scratch)
  • You expect us to guarantee a rescue without having seen the state of the code
  • You expect the rescue to cost less than the original project (it rarely does)
  • You are looking to blame your previous supplier for a scope that was never clear either

This is for you if…

  • Your previous supplier disappeared, went under or ended the relationship abruptly
  • The internal team could not finish the project and needs senior support
  • The product is in production but with constant incidents that paralyse operations
  • You inherited a project from an M&A or a change of leadership and it needs stabilising
  • A large sunk investment, and you need to recover value before approving more budget
  • Your product was vibecoded with AI and no technical supervision, and now nobody knows how to fix it when it breaks

Problem

The price of a stalled or vibecoded project.

Stalled projects are one of the most expensive and most silent problems in software: months of investment without reaching production, market windows lost, and compromised platforms nobody wants to touch. In the last year a new cause has been added: vibecoding without a safety net. Products generated with AI and no technical supervision, which worked in a demo but collapse in production, and nobody on the team can explain how they are built.

  • Sunk investments of six or seven figures with no return

  • Teams paralysed, not knowing where to start unblocking

  • Broken products in production eroding daily operations

  • Loss of key talent who took the knowledge of the system with them

  • New suppliers who refuse to touch the code because "it is in a terrible state"

  • Hard decisions between rescuing, rebuilding or cancelling without enough information

Outcomes

From sunk investment to living product.

Rescuing a project properly turns sunk investment into a living product. It is not always rescuable, and our first job is to tell you the truth: in 70% of cases we do rescue it, and in the remaining 30% we advise how to migrate the minimum value and when starting from scratch weighs more than carrying on.

Process

The 6 steps of a typical engagement.

  1. Emergency diagnosis

    1 to 2 weeks assessing the state of the project. A clear recommendation: rescue, partial rebuild or full rebuild.

  2. Immediate stabilisation

    Fixing critical incidents, restoring operation, taking control of repositories and infrastructure.

  3. Focused refactor and completion

    Only what is critical. We resolve the main blockers and complete what is needed for production.

  4. Deployment and monitoring

    A controlled release, active monitoring, a fast hotfix if anything comes up, and validation with real users.

  5. Documentation and handover

    Complete operational documentation and handover to the team that operates it.

  6. Operation and continuous improvement

    A documented handover and continuous operation with PXL Dedicated or PXL Flex as needed.
