Question 1

How much does a code audit cost?

Accepted Answer

Code audit cost depends on the size and complexity of your codebase and how quickly you need it. VibeAudits prices most audits as a flat, fixed-scope fee rather than an open-ended hourly engagement, so you know the number up front. A focused review of a small vibe-coded app costs significantly less than a comprehensive audit of a multi-service SaaS platform.

Question 2

Why is your pricing fixed-scope instead of hourly?

Accepted Answer

Hourly billing punishes you for having a messy codebase and creates uncertainty about the final bill. We scope the work up front and quote one flat price, so you can budget with confidence and we stay focused on outcomes, not hours.

Question 3

Is a code audit worth the cost for an early-stage startup?

Accepted Answer

For any app that handles logins, payments, user data or AI output, yes. Finding a broken Stripe webhook, an exposed API key or a prompt-injection path before your first 100 paying customers is almost always cheaper than discovering it after an incident, a failed enterprise security review, or a stalled funding round.

Question 4

What's included in the price?

Accepted Answer

Every audit includes a deep review of your code and architecture, a prioritized written report with severity ratings, reproduction steps and concrete remediation guidance, and a launch-readiness checklist. Higher tiers add AI-specific checks, architecture review and optional hands-on remediation support.
