Architecture Consulting for AI-Assisted Teams

Your team ships fast with AI.
We make sure the architecture stays coherent.

We help engineering teams maintain code health while using AI coding tools. Not one-time cleanup—ongoing architectural oversight that prevents drift before it becomes disaster.

Who This Is For

Team Size
Engineering teams of 3–30
Stage
Post-MVP, scaling product
Situation
Using AI tools, noticing drift
Need
Senior architectural judgment
"AI-generated code is highly functional but systematically lacking in architectural judgment."
— Ox Security, Army of Juniors: The AI Code Security Crisis (Oct 2025)

Prevention, not just rescue

Most "vibe coding cleanup" services do one-time rescues for non-technical founders. We work with engineering teams on an ongoing basis—catching drift before it compounds.

Ongoing oversight, not one-time fixes

We embed with your team for continuous architectural review, not just emergency rescue after things break.

Architecture-level, not bug-level

We focus on module boundaries, data flow, and abstraction layers—the strategic decisions AI cannot make.

Prevention built into workflows

We set up the guardrails, rules, and review processes that keep AI on track from the start.

Senior US-based expertise

Architects with 15+ years experience. Direct communication. Judgment you can trust.

AI writes code like a fast junior who never thinks about tomorrow

Independent research shows consistent patterns in AI-generated code that compound across your codebase over time.

8× increase in 2024

Code Duplication Explosion

AI adoption correlates with an 8-fold increase in duplicated code blocks. Copy-pasted lines now exceed refactored lines for the first time in GitClear's history of measurement.

25% → 10%

Refactoring Has Collapsed

The percentage of changes that involve refactoring dropped from 25% in 2021 to under 10% in 2024. AI adds new code but never consolidates existing patterns.

80–90% prevalence

Hyper-Specific Solutions

AI creates single-use implementations instead of generalizable, reusable components. Every feature becomes its own island.

40–50% prevalence

Return of Monoliths

AI defaults to tightly-coupled code, reversing progress toward modular systems. It rebuilds common functionality from scratch instead of using established libraries.

Architecture consulting for the AI-assisted age

We combine deep architectural knowledge with hands-on code work. Not just advice—actual improvement to your codebase and workflows.

Assessment

Architecture Audit

A deep assessment of your current codebase. We identify the specific anti-patterns causing pain and deliver a prioritized remediation plan.

  • Full codebase architecture review
  • AI-generated pattern identification
  • Security and performance assessment
  • Prioritized remediation roadmap
  • Detailed written report
Prevention

AI Workflow Setup

Configure the guardrails that keep AI tools productive without accumulating debt. Rules, linting, review processes, prompt patterns.

  • Cursor/Claude rules for your codebase
  • Custom linting for AI anti-patterns
  • Code review process design
  • Prompt engineering for your stack
  • Team training and documentation
Hands-On

Code Recovery

When the codebase has already drifted too far, we do the refactoring work ourselves. Restore architectural coherence, then set up prevention.

  • Hands-on refactoring and cleanup
  • Module boundary restructuring
  • Test coverage for critical paths
  • Documentation of actual behavior
  • Knowledge transfer to your team

How engagements work

Whether you need a one-time audit or ongoing oversight, the engagement starts the same way.

01

Discovery Call

30 minutes to understand your codebase, team, and the specific pain you're experiencing.

02

Codebase Review

We spend time in your actual code, understanding the architecture and identifying drift patterns.

03

Assessment Report

Written findings with prioritized recommendations. This becomes our roadmap for any further work.

04

Engagement Decision

You decide: take the report and run, or continue with ongoing support or hands-on work.
