🚨 Your AI-built SaaS works. Now try to break it.

One thing I’ve learned while building VibeSafe:

Getting an AI-built app to work is surprisingly easy.
Knowing whether it’s safe is much harder.

Before launching, I’d personally check these 7 things:

1. 🔑 Secrets
Search your entire codebase for API keys, tokens, passwords, and database credentials.

2. 🔐 Authentication
Try accessing protected pages without logging in.

3. 🗄️ Database access
Check whether a user can access another user's data by simply changing an ID.

4. 🌐 API endpoints
Look for endpoints that perform sensitive actions without proper authorization.

5. 📦 Dependencies
Check what packages the AI added. You might not know what you're actually shipping.

6. 🐛 Error messages
Production errors shouldn't expose stack traces, database details, or internal paths.

7. 🤖 Don't trust the AI's "done."
Ask another tool—or another person—to review the code from an attacker's perspective.

The interesting part?

A founder can spend weeks building features and still miss one tiny security mistake that takes an attacker seconds to find.

That's actually why we're building VibeSafe: to give indie hackers a security checkpoint between:

“AI built it” → “I'm ready to ship it.”

Curious what other founders do:

What's your security checklist before launching an AI-built SaaS?

Even if it's just one thing, share it below. I'd love to turn the answers into a practical indie-hacker security checklist.

Build fast. Ship safe.
