Varnish Labs

Services

Hard things, properly.

Two ways to work together. We build the thing, or we read what you already built and tell you what is actually wrong with it. Both are the same job, done at different points in the life of a codebase.

  • Prices published
  • One project at a time
  • You talk to the builders

Building

Small, senior, and scoped honestly. The people who scope your project are the people who build it.

  • Mobile apps

    iOS and Android, shipped to both stores and kept alive long after launch. React Native and Swift, with the store submission, the crash triage, and the update cadence included rather than quoted separately later.

  • Platforms & custom builds

    Client portals, internal tools, APIs, and the integration everyone told you was impossible. Scoped in weeks, not quarters, and scoped out loud so you can see what you are paying for before it starts.

  • Modernization & rescues

    Aging systems, stalled rebuilds, and vendors who vanished mid-contract. A decade of government modernization work taught us how to renovate a running system without burning the house down.

  • Accessibility, baked in

    WCAG 2.2 AA and Section 508, from the first commit rather than the last sprint. If you need remediation on something already shipped, that is an audit plus scoped work, priced below.

You shipped it with AI. We make sure it holds.

A lot of companies now have a codebase nobody senior has ever read. Reading them is the job: security, accessibility, performance, and code health, written up so you can act on it. Ten business days, a report you own, and a call to walk it.

Three ways to do it. Two need no access at all.

The thing most people hesitate on is handing over a repo. So the tiers are organized by how much access each one needs, starting at none.

  • No access needed

    Site audit

    $750fixed

    SEO, accessibility, performance, security headers, and staleness, read from the outside exactly like a visitor sees it. Nothing to install and nothing to grant. We need the URL and that is all.

    Email us the URL
  • You run it, no access

    Self-run product audit

    $1,500fixed

    You install our open-source varnish plugin and run it on your own code, then send us the raw output. We do the reading: what actually matters, what to fix first, what to ignore. Your code never leaves your machine.

    Email us to start

On access: most of this needs none at all. If we go deeper, it is read-only, time-boxed, NDA first, and we delete our copies when we are done.

Not sure which one you need?

Say what you built and how you built it. If an audit is not the right call we will tell you that instead of selling you one.
