Core is everything that has to exist before your AI can ship safely to real users: cloud hosting, sign-in and accounts, a database, automatic checks on every change, security scanning, monitoring, and a built-in API that both partners and AI assistants can use. Installed once. Works forever.
What gets installed
The same decisions senior teams make on day one, made for you. None of it is anything you have to know.
Hosted on Google Cloud's Firebase, with your own domain, HTTPS, and uptime monitoring from day one. Zero-downtime deploys, automatic disaster recovery, and a 30-day uptime history always in view.
Sign in with email or with Google. Decide what each person can see and do, with an optional second-factor code for extra safety.
A connected database that syncs changes in real time across every user’s screen. When something updates, everyone sees it immediately. No refresh needed.
When your AI builds on top of Rails, every new feature comes with its own automatic checks. If a future change breaks something, the system stops it before it reaches your users.
Each change runs through automatic checks for bugs, security holes, and known vulnerabilities in the libraries you depend on. If something breaks, you’ll know before your users do.
Centralized logs and performance metrics, real-time error alerts straight to your inbox, and product analytics so you can see how people actually use your app.
Every AI agent reads a guide of your project before touching anything: how files are organized, what conventions to follow, where credentials live, and who can do what. Each new task starts from the same clear base.
Your app ships with a built-in connection point so tools like Claude or Cursor can read your data, create records, and take actions inside your product, the same way a human would.
The stack
Every tool in Core is chosen because it's what senior teams default to in production. Nothing exotic. Nothing that becomes a liability when you scale.
Firebase Hosting
Where your app lives on the web
Firebase Auth
Sign-in and accounts (with optional 2FA)
Firestore
Where your data lives
Firebase Functions
Server logic on demand, no servers to manage
React + Next.js
How your app pages are built
Node.js
Powers the server side
MCP (Model Context Protocol)
How AI assistants talk to your product
OAuth 2.0
How other apps sign in to yours, securely
Sentry
Error tracking and alerts
Datadog
Logs and performance monitoring
GitHub Actions
Auto-checks and deploys on every change
Vitest
Tests for the logic
Playwright
Tests that walk through real flows
ESLint + Prettier
Keeps code style consistent
Pay $0 for cloud services until you start scaling.
For prototyping and light to moderate traffic, every tool on this list can be used for free. Some will ask for a credit card to activate your account but won't charge you anything until you start scaling.
Training · included
A 1:1 session where we walk you through the full environment: how to build safely inside it, how to instruct your AI to respect the structure, how to move between your sandbox and the live app, and how to prepare a version for a pre-launch review.
Pricing
No subscription. No monthly fees. No per-seat charges. You pay once and the foundation is yours, forever.
Later, when you ship
The express lane to production.
Before each release reaches real users, senior engineers look at what automated checks and AI reviewers still miss: how the change fits the rest of your app, things that only break in production, performance and cost at scale, security in context, and changes to your data.
You get a clear go/no-go with each finding pinned to the line, with enough context for your AI to fix it. You decide when to ship.
More about Safe deploy →We set up the full project: code repository, cloud setup, automatic checks, every integration, and all the configuration. You get a working app from day one, not a template to fill in.
Firestore. It grows with you without maintenance work, and it pairs cleanly with the rest of Google Cloud’s Firebase, so your AI doesn’t have to reason about a separate database layer.
Yes. Core is your codebase. You can replace any tool. That said, the toolset is chosen to work well together and to be what senior teams default to; changing things without a strong reason tends to create more work, not less.
No. Core includes the integration and the configuration. During Training we show you how to read a production error and how to spot a slow part of your app. Day to day you mostly see their output, not their config.
Your app ships with a built-in connection point that AI assistants like Claude and Cursor can use. If you want your AI to look up your data, create records, or read metrics, it can do that the same way a person would, protected by your own sign-in flow.
Typically 3–5 business days from the kickoff call to a working environment with everything installed, configured, and documented.
You build with your AI in your sandbox. When you have a version ready to go live, you request a pre-launch review. Senior engineers look at the change and give you a concrete go/no-go.
Yes. Our Development service builds features on top of your Core, following the same standards, so your AI can keep maintaining everything afterward.
Book a kickoff call. We scope the project together, set up your full stack, train you to drive it, and hand you the keys.
