Built by people who actually ship.
VibeHardening is the rescue arm of Anvil, an AI-agent orchestration platform that ships production software. We've been on the receiving end of "the AI wrote it and now it's broken" enough times to know exactly where these apps fail — and exactly how to fix them.
Why we exist
The AI coding wave is real. Founders are shipping working apps without engineers, validating product-market fit in weeks instead of months. The catch: the same speed that lets you launch a prototype also hides the security, compliance, and operational debt the AI didn't think to ask about.
Across the European market the problem is sharper. Your enterprise prospects ask for ISO 27001 alignment, data residency, signed Data Processing Agreements (DPAs / AVVs). Your data-protection officer wants to see the audit trail. The "ship on Lovable" startup playbook stalls the moment a serious B2B prospect runs procurement.
VibeHardening exists to close that gap. We audit. We harden. We host in the EU. You keep the speed of AI-built software with the operational confidence of an engineering team behind you.
A note on LLM transit: Anvil's default agent path calls
Anthropic's API (US-hosted, no data persistence under the standard DPA). If your compliance
posture rules that out, Tier 3+ enables EU-only mode — agent calls routed to Claude
on AWS Bedrock eu-central-1, to Mistral (Paris), or to your own
Ollama deployment. We pick a trade-off you can defend, not one we wishfully named over.
How we work
- 1. You book a free 30-min check, or order a paid Tier 1 audit directly.
- 2. We point our agent pipeline at your repo (read-only) plus a manual senior review.
- 3. You get a written PDF report within 3 business days, walked through on a call.
- 4. If you want the findings fixed, we quote a fixed-price Tier 2 hardening sprint.
- 5. If you want it kept that way, we move you to Tier 3 managed hosting in the EU — with optional EU-only LLM mode.
The Anvil connection
We are not a generic security consultancy with AI bolted on. The audit pipeline behind VibeHardening is Anvil's own agent orchestrator — the same one that ships full applications from tickets at anvil-coder.tech. We operate the rescue funnel because we built the underlying machinery, and we know what it can and can't do.
Your scan finishes in hours. Your audit lands in days. Your hardening sprint ships on staging with a human approval gate before it touches production. None of that is by accident — it's the same disciplined pipeline that powers Anvil customers.
