Top 3 Base44 companies
- 1Best for: A check before launch
Why it ranks here. $49 for an async audit: a severity-ranked list of issues with a fix-cost estimate for each, delivered as a PDF within 48 hours, no call needed. A $499 security audit if you want a deeper one.
Sells fixed-scope audits, repairs and MVP completion; the pricing introduction says no retainers while listing one.
Also consider: RLSProof ($99 scan of your Supabase rules in 24 hours) · Go-Live Checks (Umut Çakır) ($290 for an 18-point manual check, report in 3 business days).

- 2Best for: A full rescue by one team that keeps building
Why it ranks here. One team covers the whole job: a $490 audit that counts toward the work, a fixed-price sprint from $2,500, or a full rescue from $6,000 with fixes in all six areas including design cleanup, deployment with backups and monitoring, then a handover or more work on web, mobile and AI features.
Product engineering company working since 2014, with 300+ projects. Takes AI-built apps through audit, fixes, testing and deployment, then hands the code over or keeps building.
Also consider: LazyCodeLab (rescue and ship from $4,999 in 2–4 weeks, by one senior engineer) · Prodevel (£8,000–£50,000+ fixed quote, complete rescue in 6–10 weeks).

How this list is ordered
By our score out of 10, the same for every company: published prices, scope of work, AI tools named, published timing and a low-risk first step. Ties go to the lower first price. Every fact is from the company's own site on the date shown on its profile. How we score.
What to check before you hire
Run the five critical checks on your own project so you can describe what is broken.
Access rules are on for every table
In Supabase, open Table Editor: every table should show RLS enabled, with at least one policy. In Firebase, your rules should never say allow read, write: if true.
No secret keys reach the browser
Open your live app, then DevTools, Sources, and search the loaded JavaScript for sb_secret_, sk_live_, sk-proj- and sk-ant-. Older Supabase keys are long tokens starting with eyJ: decode the middle part of each on your own machine, and if it contains "role":"service_role", your secret key is public. A publishable or anon key in the browser is expected.
One user cannot open another user's records
Sign in as user A, copy a request from the Network tab, and change the record ID to one that belongs to user B. You should get an error or an empty result.
Paid accounts are unlocked by a verified payment webhook
Access should change only when your server receives a signed webhook from Stripe or your provider, not when the browser reaches a success page.
Database backups run automatically and a restore has been tested
Check what your database plan actually includes, then restore a backup into a test project once.
Common Base44 problems
- Base44 app not loading or stuck on Thinking: what it usually means
- Base44 app not updating after publish
- I don't own my code and there is no GitHub repo
- Can I export my Base44 app?
Questions
How much does it cost to hire a Base44 developer?
The companies on this page that publish prices start at a one-off check for $49 to $800, a single fix for €99 to $990, and a cleanup for $1,500 to $15,000. The price page lists every published price.
Freelancer or agency?
A freelancer fits a single, well-described fix. An agency fits a cleanup, a takeover or anything that needs a second engineer, backups and monitoring. Either way, ask for a written scope with price and timing before you grant access.
What should I send a Base44 developer before the first call?
The symptom, when it started, whether real users are affected, which backend the app uses, and your answers to the 24 checks. Give access through an invite, never by sharing your password.
