Run this before launching anything built on Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Cursor or Claude. Independent testing found 45% of AI-generated code ships with a security flaw (Veracode, 2025). Pass all 10 checks and you’re production-safe; fail any and fix it first. It maps to the OWASP Top 10 — the vulnerabilities attackers actually exploit.
Fail 3 or more? Don’t launch yet. Get the $500 audit for a scored report, or read why AI code is so often vulnerable.
Most AI-built apps can be hardened in place — you rarely need to rebuild. Work top-down: auth and access control first (the highest-impact, most-exploited gaps), then secrets, then data, then the rest. Re-run the checklist after each fix. If the foundation genuinely can’t be secured, a focused rebuild is the honest call.

Run this 10-point checklist (or a $500 audit). The big ones are real auth, server-side secrets, input validation and row-level data access — that’s where most AI-built apps fail.
Often, yes — 45% of it ships a vulnerability (Veracode 2025). AI optimises for code that runs, not code that’s safe. You have to add the security layer.
Usually — most apps can be hardened in place. A rebuild is only needed when the foundation can’t be secured.
