BrightPocket Software

Primary pathway

Rescue & Launch

This is the work BrightPocket Software exists to do: find out what is actually wrong with software that has stalled, repair what matters, and confirm it is genuinely ready before real users arrive.

Diagnosis comes before repair

We do not quote a repair for an application nobody has examined. A Rescue Triage establishes what is actually wrong, and the repair sprint is scoped and priced from that. It is slower to start and far cheaper to finish.

What we offer

Rescue Triage

Available

A paid diagnostic for software that is stuck, unreliable, or behaving in ways nobody can explain.

$495
founding price, fixed fee, paid up front
What it includes
  • A written diagnostic of what is actually wrong
  • A prioritised problem list separating symptoms from causes
  • A scoped, priced next step if repair work makes sense
Not included
  • Repair work itself — Triage diagnoses, it does not fix
  • Any guarantee that the application can be saved
Terms
Fixed fee, paid up front

Available

An independent assessment of whether your application is genuinely ready for real users.

$895
founding price, fixed fee
What it includes
  • An independent assessment of genuine launch readiness
  • A written findings document with prioritised risks
  • A defensible verdict with its conditions attached
Not included
  • Remediation of what the review finds
  • Any warranty that launch will be incident-free

From $1,750
bounded scope, quoted after diagnosis
What it includes
  • Bounded repair of an agreed, written scope

Terms
Bounded sprint, quoted after diagnosis
Before we start
Scope is quoted only after a Triage or equivalent diagnosis — never a blind fixed price.

Launch Retest

For existing clients

A re-test of your original Launch Readiness findings once you have remediated them.

$395
fixed fee, for existing review clients
What it includes
  • Re-test of the original findings
  • A disposition for each one: resolved, partial, or still open
  • A revised go/no-go statement
Not included
  • A fresh full review — this re-tests the original findings only
  • Remediation work
  • Any launch guarantee
Terms
Fixed fee, typically within 90 days of the original review
Before we start
Requires a prior Launch Readiness Review. It is not a substitute for one, and not a first purchase.

How these fit together

  1. 1. Diagnose. A Rescue Triage tells you what is wrong, separating symptoms from causes.
  2. 2. Repair. A Focused App Recovery Sprint fixes the findings that matter, within a written scope.
  3. 3. Confirm. A Launch Readiness Review says whether it is genuinely ready — and a Launch Retest re-checks those findings once you have addressed them.
  4. 4. Extend. Automation and custom development, where the problem is missing capability rather than broken capability.

Tell us what is actually happening and we will say which of these is the right next step — or that none of them is.
