Code Review

An independent, honest read on your codebase, and what to do about it.

Putti's Code Review team at work

A code review is an independent, expert read on the health of your codebase. Not sure whether your software is solid, or whether a build is heading for trouble? Putti's senior engineers review it independently and tell you the truth, in a prioritised, plain-English report you can actually act on.

What we assess

  • Architecture and code quality: is it built to last?
  • Security and data handling: where is the risk?
  • Maintainability and technical debt: what will slow you down?
  • Delivery risk and next steps: what matters most, and what can wait?

When you need it

  • You're about to invest in, acquire or take over a product.
  • A build feels off and you want an honest second opinion.
  • You've inherited code from another team or contractor.
  • You need technical due diligence before a decision.

Why teams choose Putti

It's the same honest assessment that begins every project rescue, available on its own when you just need clarity. As a New Zealand team that has delivered 100+ projects since 2010 with zero failures, and rescued 20+ others couldn't finish, we've seen what healthy and unhealthy codebases really look like.

Frequently asked questions

What is a code review service?

A code review service is an independent, expert assessment of a software codebase, covering its architecture, code quality, security, maintainability and delivery risk, delivered as a clear, prioritised report. It tells you honestly what's solid, what's fragile and what to do next.

When should we get an independent code review?

Common moments are before acquiring or investing in a product, when taking over code from another team or contractor, when a build feels like it's heading for trouble, or when you simply need confidence that what you own is sound. If you're unsure whether your codebase is healthy, that's the signal.

What do you actually assess?

We assess architecture and code quality, security and data handling, maintainability and technical debt, and overall delivery risk, then give you a prioritised, plain-English list of what matters most and what can wait.

Will we get something we can act on?

Yes. The output is a prioritised, plain-English report, not a wall of jargon, so technical and non-technical stakeholders can both understand the findings and make decisions from them.

Is this the same as a technical due diligence review?

It's closely related. For investors and acquirers we run the same independent assessment as technical due diligence, focused on the risks that affect value: security, scalability, maintainability and how much work stands between the product and where it needs to be.
