000 / Code Review

Codebase Review

A structured, independent look at your codebase: where are the risks, the technical debt, the quick wins? You get a prioritised, actionable findings list, not vague impressions.

001 / Deliverables

What you get

What you end up with, three concrete deliverables, no "gut feeling".

Prioritised findings list

Every finding with severity, location, rationale and a concrete recommendation. Sorted by impact versus effort, so you know what to tackle first.

Architecture & risk overview

Where complexity concentrates, where the cluster risks are, which spots break with the next feature. Including a dependency and hotspot view.

Quick wins called out separately

Measures that pay off in hours rather than weeks, flagged separately so your team can ship immediately.

Optional: live walkthrough

On request I walk your team through the findings in a call, instead of just handing over a PDF.

002 / How it runs

How a review runs

  1. 01

    Access & scope

    Read-only access to the repository, a short alignment on the focus: security, performance, architecture or maintainability.

  2. 02

    Analysis

    Static analysis, manual review of the critical paths, dependency and hotspot evaluation.

  3. 03

    Report

    Prioritised findings list with recommendations, split into quick wins, mid-term and structural.

  4. 04

    Handover

    Written report, on request plus a live walkthrough with Q&A for your team.

003 / Price

Fixed price by scope

The price depends on codebase size, technology spread, the depth of output you want and the turnaround. Work out the estimate below yourself; the binding fixed price follows after a short discovery call.

The shown starting price is a provisional estimate for a compact review, no timesheet, no open-ended invoice.

005 / Frequent questions

What you probably want to know

Which languages and stacks do you cover?

The focus is Python and the usual web/backend ecosystem; other languages by arrangement. In the discovery call we check whether your stack is sensibly covered before you book.

What access do you need?

Read-only access to the repository is enough, no write permissions, no access to production systems. An NDA on request beforehand.

Do you also implement the findings?

The review itself is analysis. Implementation I can take on at a day rate or guide your team, but that is a separate step.

How long does a review take?

A compact review is typically around two weeks; express in five business days is possible for a surcharge. The calculator reflects both.

Is the calculator price binding?

No, it is an orientation estimate. The binding fixed price I give after a short discovery call where we clarify scope and focus.
