Genuine research question, no pitch. Trying to understand how founders handle the gap between "the demo works" and "real users just broke my app." If this has happened to you, which was closest to what you actually did? 1. Fixed it myself (learned as I went) 2. Hired a developer to come clean it up 3. Wished there was a tool that would scan it and tell me what's broken 4. Rebuilt from scratch in a "real" stack 5. Gave up on that project 6. Something else (curious what) If you're willing, share which tool you built with originally (Lovable, Cursor, Bolt, Claude Code, etc.) and what the breakage looked like. Real war stories welcome.
