Technology Stack & Architecture Audits
Your technology stack was perfect for getting you to where you are today. But as you scale, cracks begin to show. Feature development slows to a crawl, your cloud bill spirals upwards, and the fear of a system-wide crash under peak load becomes very real.
Is Your Technology an Asset or a Liability?
A Technology & Architecture Audit from Gravitonic provides the critical, unbiased clarity you need to move forward with confidence. We go deep into your codebase, infrastructure, and processes to deliver a prioritised, actionable roadmap that turns your technology from a growth bottleneck into your greatest competitive advantage.
Your Architecture is Telling a Story. Are You Listening?
We partner with CTOs, engineering leaders, and investors who need objective answers to critical questions:
The Scalability Question: Can our platform handle a 10x increase in users without collapsing?
The Velocity Problem: Why has our development cycle slowed down so much? Is technical debt grinding us to a halt?
The Cost Conundrum: Is our cloud infrastructure efficient, or are we burning cash on an over-engineered or poorly configured system?
The Investment Test: Is our technology solid enough to pass the scrutiny of technical due diligence for a funding round or acquisition?
Our Technology Audit & Review Services
We deliver a comprehensive, 360-degree analysis of your technology ecosystem.
1. Scalability & Performance Assessment
We rigorously test the limits of your architecture, identifying performance bottlenecks in your application, database, and infrastructure. We deliver a clear assessment of your current capacity and a practical roadmap to ensure your platform can handle future growth gracefully.
2. Code Quality & Technical Debt Analysis
We perform a static and dynamic analysis of your codebase to quantify your technical debt. We identify architectural flaws, security vulnerabilities, and areas of excessive complexity that are hindering your team's velocity, providing a prioritised plan for refactoring and improvement.
3. Cloud Infrastructure & Cost Optimisation
Your cloud bill shouldn't be a mystery. We conduct a thorough review of your AWS, Azure, or GCP environment to identify opportunities for significant cloud cost optimisation. We find orphaned resources, recommend right-sizing instances, and advise on modern, cost-effective architectural patterns like serverless.
4. Technical Due Diligence Reporting
For startups raising capital or companies involved in an M&A, our independent audit provides the credible, third-party validation you need. We deliver a comprehensive technical due diligence report that assesses the strengths, weaknesses, and risks of the technology, giving investors and acquirers the confidence to proceed.

Your Architecture is Telling a Story. Are You Listening?
Your technology stack is a living record of every decision, every shortcut, and every success your company has ever had. It's telling a story about your ability to scale, your vulnerability to attack, and the true speed at which you can innovate. An independent audit helps you read that story and write the next chapter with confidence.
The Deliverable: Your Strategic Technology Roadmap
You will receive a clear, concise, and prioritised roadmap, not a 200-page academic paper. This document translates complex technical findings into a practical guide that outlines a clear path to a more scalable, secure, and efficient technology platform.
Your roadmap will include:
A Prioritised Technical Debt Register: A quantified list of issues in your codebase, ranked by business impact and effort to fix.
Scalability & Performance Blueprint: Specific architectural changes needed to handle a 10x growth in user load.
Cloud Cost Optimisation Plan: Actionable recommendations to reduce your monthly cloud spend without sacrificing performance.
"Quick Wins" & Strategic Initiatives: A clear distinction between high-impact, low-effort fixes and longer-term foundational projects.
Business Case: A clear justification for each recommendation, tied to business outcomes like speed-to-market, cost savings, or risk reduction.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Why do we need an external audit? Our engineers know our system best.
A: Your team has invaluable institutional knowledge, but they are often too close to the code to see the bigger architectural picture. An external audit provides an unbiased, "fresh eyes" perspective free from internal politics and historical biases, often spotting issues your team may have overlooked.
Q: Will this process be disruptive to our development team?
A: Our process is designed to be minimally disruptive. We require an initial deep-dive session with your key engineers, followed by read-only access to your code repositories and infrastructure. The bulk of the analysis is done independently, with short, focused follow-up questions as needed.
Q: What is the typical duration of a technology audit?
A: A standard audit engagement typically lasts between 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of your technology stack. Our goal is to deliver actionable insights quickly.
