Find the quality risks hiding in your product - before your users do.
Rapid Health Check is a fixed-scope audit for startups with live products. In 5 business days, we review your most important user flows, uncover meaningful bugs and UX issues, identify testing gaps, and deliver a practical report with clear next steps.
23 findings across 4 core flows
Two release-critical bugs in checkout, three high-severity UX frictions in onboarding, and meaningful regression gaps around billing. Quick wins outlined below.
- CCheckout fails on retried 3DS challenge
- CAccount deletion leaves orphaned billing records
- HOnboarding step 3 has no error recovery path
- HEmpty-state copy implies misleading data loss
- 01Fix 3DS retry path
- 02Backfill regression on billing
- 03Onboarding error states
Built for startups that need clarity fast
This audit is designed for teams with a live product, active users, and real release pressure.
Who it's for YES
- Startups with a live product and active users
- Founders and product teams preparing for launches, growth, or investor attention
- Teams shipping quickly without strong QA coverage
- Companies unsure whether they need ongoing QA, stronger regression coverage, or process fixes
- Teams that want practical insight before hiring or committing to a longer engagement
Not for NO
- Idea-stage products with nothing usable to test
- Teams looking only for the cheapest manual bug hunt
- Companies expecting full-scale QA outsourcing from a small fixed-scope audit
- Teams that only want automated tests without understanding their underlying quality risks
What you get from the audit
A practical deliverable you can actually use - not vague consulting advice.
Core flow audit
We review the user journeys that matter most to product quality, trust, and release confidence.
Bugs and friction points
We uncover functional issues, broken states, inconsistencies, and friction points across the audited scope.
Clear reporting
Each important issue is documented with severity, reproduction details, and supporting evidence.
UX and trust observations
We flag usability and trust issues that may not be technical bugs but still hurt product experience.
Testing gap analysis
We identify the most important blind spots in your current testing and regression approach.
Prioritized next steps
You leave with a practical recommendation on what to fix, what to monitor, and what to do next.
What we review
We focus on the areas most likely to create release risk, user frustration, or false confidence.
- 01Core user journeys and happy paths
- 02Broken states, edge cases, and friction points
- 03High-risk product areas that deserve stronger regression protection
- 04Existing testing approach and quality blind spots
- 05UI/UX inconsistencies that affect trust, clarity, or usability

Typical outcomes from a Rapid Health Check
Findings vary by product, but most audits surface issues across these three categories.
Critical release blockers
Issues caught before launch in checkout, auth, and billing flows where regression cost is highest.
Hidden regression gaps
Coverage blind spots in core flows that would have surfaced as production incidents within weeks.
Trust-sensitive friction
UX issues in moments where confidence matters most - onboarding, payments, and account changes.
