founder-led
About Mert
I am a founder-engineer who helps founders regain control of apps they built too quickly with AI coding tools.
background
- Founder of Communicat, eStadium and Rated10
- Former Credit Karma mobile engineer with deep Silicon Valley startup experience
- React, React Native, iOS, Android, Flutter, Firebase, TypeScript, Cloud Functions, mobile apps, web apps, product strategy, subscriptions, and AI-assisted coding workflows
why this exists
AI made prototypes faster. It also made codebases easier to lose coherence.
I use AI tools myself. I understand why founders love them: the first version appears quickly, the screen changes fast, and a product idea starts to feel real.
Then the app grows. Auth logic splits across files. Environment variables are unclear. The database setup becomes risky. A small change creates side effects in a place nobody expected. At that point, the founder does not need a lecture. They need someone to open the project and explain what is really happening.
AI Codebase Rescue is built for that moment. You can keep using AI. You just need a more coherent base and a better workflow.
Founder-to-founder codebase recovery.
I help translate the technical mess into a practical plan: how the app works, what is good, what is risky, what can wait, and what needs attention before the next feature, migration, prompt, or fix.
