What actually breaks when you deploy an AI-built app

What actually breaks when you deploy an AI-built app

Short summary

An audit of 20 AI-built apps (Lovable, Bolt, v0, Cursor) found common deployment problems: 14/20 had wrong canonical tags, 12/20 had broken SEO, 9/20 had non-firing analytics, 7/20 lacked contact info, 5/20 had open databases with RLS disabled, and 2/20 leaked secret keys in client bundles. None had monitoring to catch regressions after redeployments. The author pitches their tool Actuant as a solution.

  • •14/20 AI-built apps had canonical tags pointing to wrong domains
  • •5/20 had open databases with row-level security disabled
  • •No app had post-deploy monitoring to catch regressions on redeploy

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
