Frequently asked questions
Clear answers before you commit to a project.
How engagements start, who does the work, where ownership stays, and what to expect when security or confidentiality matters.
Starting an engagement
What kinds of projects are a strong fit for Lanexas?+
We are strongest on AI-enabled B2B SaaS, difficult backends and APIs, and application-security work. Typical situations include turning a useful AI workflow into a dependable product, a backend blocked by integrations or reliability issues, and a product preparing to handle sensitive data or pass a customer security review.
Can you start from an idea rather than a specification?+
Yes, when the customer problem and intended user are understood. If important product or technical questions remain open, a paid discovery phase can turn them into a bounded scope, architecture options, risks, and a delivery proposal before implementation begins.
How are scope and fees determined?+
The first call establishes fit and the level of uncertainty. Scope, availability, fees, invoicing, access, and acceptance criteria are then confirmed in writing before paid work begins. We do not quote a fixed build from an unexplored brief when the main risks are still unknown.
Do I have to provide a budget in the contact form?+
No. The budget field is optional. Context about the product, the current constraint, and the desired outcome is enough to start a useful conversation.
Delivery and ownership
Who will we work with?+
The founders remain directly involved in architecture, delivery, and security decisions. The wider delivery team is shaped around the engagement instead of being presented as a fixed oversized roster.
Can you work with our existing team or codebase?+
Yes. Lanexas can take responsibility for a defined subsystem, strengthen an existing product after a technical review, or work alongside an internal product and engineering team.
Where do the code and infrastructure live?+
The working model is designed around the client’s repository, infrastructure, backlog, and communication cadence. Code, configuration, decisions, documentation, and access should remain reviewable and transferable rather than creating provider lock-in.
What happens after launch?+
Launch includes agreed acceptance criteria, observability and operating documentation appropriate to the scope, transfer of access, and a clear list of next priorities. Any continued support is defined explicitly rather than assumed.
Security and confidentiality
Can you work under NDA?+
Yes. Confidentiality, the information that may be shared, and access boundaries can be agreed before sensitive material is provided. The projects shown on this site keep client identities private where NDA restrictions apply.
Do you need production access?+
Production access is never assumed. The required environments, accounts, test data, boundaries, and test methods are agreed before work starts, especially for a security assessment.
Is a security assessment a certification?+
No. It is practical application-security work focused on the agreed product surface. It may help a team prepare for customer or compliance questions, but it is not presented as a formal certification or compliance audit.
What does a security assessment deliver?+
The expected output is evidence-backed, prioritized findings connected to product impact, remediation guidance, and agreed verification or retesting conditions—not an unexplained vulnerability list.
Have a product challenge?
Start with the problem. We will help shape the next step.
