Packages and what each one is for

Every engagement starts with the Perlustra audit, because we do not quote fixed prices on code we have not read. After the audit you know the risks, the plan and the fixed price — and you can take that plan anywhere.

The audit planPackage
StabiliseStop incidents, make deploys safe, add tests where change is needed.
Firmora sprint
UpgradeMove off parts that no longer get updates; modernise what matters most.
Renascia sprint
EvolveKeep it healthy, ship small improvements, add AI where it is justified.
Each horizon comes with a fixed sprint price and written exclusions.

01The packages

Five packages, one way in

  1. 01 · Check

    Perlustra, the codebase health audit

    Start here5 business days
    Fixed feeConfirmed on the triage call; a larger fixed fee for systems with several services.

    Find out what you really have before anyone changes it. A fixed-price, five-day review of an existing web application that ends with a written report and a prioritised plan with a sprint price. You can act on the plan with us or with anyone else.

    You receive
    • A written report: summary, ten-point scorecard, findings with evidence and severity, risk register
    • Speed, accessibility and search-health checks alongside the code review
    • A plan in three horizons with fixed sprint prices, and a 45-minute walkthrough call

    Paid on order. 50% credited against a Firmora or Renascia sprint signed within 30 days.

  2. 02 · Fix

    Firmora, the stabilisation sprint

    2 or 4 weeks
    Fixed priceSet by the audit, before work starts.

    Stop the firefighting. Two or four weeks of focused senior engineering on an application that keeps breaking, cannot be deployed with confidence, or has no tests. Fixed scope from the audit, fixed price, 50% on signature and 50% on acceptance.

    You receive
    • The incidents that hurt most, reproduced and fixed
    • Automated tests and checks around the parts that matter most
    • Deploys that work from a clean machine, monitoring, a README and a runbook

    50% on signature, 50% on acceptance. Scope and exclusions written in the statement of work.

    The sprint in detail
  3. 03 · Modernise

    Renascia, the upgrade and migration sprint

    2–6 weeks per sprint
    Fixed priceSet by the audit; larger systems in phases.

    Move from legacy to modern without a rewrite. A sequence of small, reversible changes that moves a working application onto supported technology, with tests proving nothing broke and your search rankings kept.

    You receive
    • An inventory of every framework, package and runtime with its end-of-support date
    • The migration in slices, each shippable on its own with a way back
    • Search rankings kept: a redirect for every old address, pages checked the way search engines see them, and speed measured before and after

    50% on signature, 50% on acceptance; milestones for anything longer than four weeks.

    Migrations in detail
  4. 04 · Look after

    Servata, the care retainer

    Monthly · after a sprint
    Fixed monthly fee20, 40 or 60 hours a month.

    Keep it healthy and keep shipping. Someone senior who knows the codebase keeps it current and ships small improvements every month, without a procurement cycle, with response times in writing.

    You receive
    • Dependency and security updates, and monitoring during working hours
    • Bug fixes and small features from a prioritised list you control
    • A monthly written report: what shipped, what is next, what we are worried about

    Paid monthly in advance. Three-month minimum, then 30 days' notice.

    The retainer in detail
  5. 05 · Add AI

    Ingenara, AI feature integration

    2–4 weeks
    Fixed priceFixed scope, agreed before work starts.

    Add AI to the app you already run, once it is stable: an assistant that answers from your documents and data, smarter search, an AI step inside a workflow, or a connector that lets Claude and other assistants use your product.

    You receive
    • A written success measure and a set of real test questions before any model is chosen
    • Guardrails, per-user data boundaries, and a cost budget with alerts
    • A feature that ships only if it meets the agreed threshold

    50% on signature, 50% on acceptance. Prerequisite: a stable application; if we have not audited it, the audit comes first.
