AI app deployment

Deploying an AI-generated app to production

Generated an app in ChatGPT, Claude, Bolt or Lovable and it only runs on your computer? I add the database, authentication, security, backups, domain and HTTPS — what generated code does not have. I name the price after I have seen the code.

ChatGPT, Claude, Bolt, Lovable Tools I take code over from

It works on localhost. Now what?

This is the most common situation people come to me with. You generate an app in ChatGPT, Claude, Bolt or Lovable that does exactly what you wanted. On your machine it works. And that is where it stops, because getting anyone else to use it takes a whole second half of the work.

That is neither your fault nor the model’s. Generated code solves the feature, not the operation. It keeps data in memory or in a file, has no authentication, no backups, no error handling, and its configuration including API keys tends to sit right in the code. Put that online and it works — until the first restart, or the first person who notices.

What generated code is usually missing

I always cover these. Depending on the state of the code, the only difference is how much is already done.

A real database instead of data in memory or in a file that gets overwritten
Authentication and a separation of who is allowed to see what
API keys and passwords out of the code and into server configuration
Error and input handling so the app does not crash on unexpected input
Daily database backups and a way to roll back
A domain, an HTTPS certificate and deployment to a server that restarts on its own
An admin panel where you manage content and users, instead of me going into the database

How deployment works

1

I look at the code

Send a link to the project or an export. I will tell you what is missing for production, what it will cost and whether it is worth building on what you have. When you hear back depends on how large the code is.
2

I add what production needs

Database, authentication, security, backups. I leave the features as they are and only rewrite what would fail in production.
3

I deploy it to a server

Domain, HTTPS, automatic start after a restart, uptime monitoring.
4

I hand over the credentials

The server, domain and database are in your name. I walk you through running the app and what to do when something stops working.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do with an app generated by AI?

If it does what it should, do not throw it away. What it lacks is a database, authentication, security and backups — all of which can be added without losing the functionality. Prices start at 12,000 CZK; I name the exact price after I have seen the code.

Will you rewrite the whole app from scratch?

Not unless it is necessary. I only rewrite what would fail in production. Generated code is usually workable in the end, it is just missing everything around it.

What will the app cost to run each month?

A small app comes to a few hundred crowns a month for the server and domain. If it uses a paid language model API, token costs are added based on volume. You always get the numbers up front.

What if the generated code is genuinely bad?

I will tell you at the start, including whether it is cheaper to extend it or rewrite it. I am not going to bill you hours for fixing something not worth saving.

Can you keep developing the app afterwards?

Yes, at the hourly rate or as part of website care. Most clients want two or three more things added after launch that they did not think of while generating it.

Got a generated app that runs nowhere?

Send me a link to the project or an export. I will tell you what is missing for production and what it will cost.
