AI app integration fix — Stripe webhook, auth, and Supabase in 5 days

Your Lovable, Bolt.new, or Cursor app shipped a Stripe webhook that skips signature verification, a Supabase integration fix that never landed, or a Lovable auth fix that still 500s on production. Pick one. We wire the AI app integration fix end-to-end — idempotency, staging, CI tests, runbook — in 5 business days.

Quick verdict

AI app integration fix is a $799 fixed-fee, 5-day engagement for one integration done properly: Stripe webhook fix with signature verify and idempotency, Lovable auth fix or Supabase integration fix on Clerk/Auth.js, custom domain cutover with DNS + SSL + OAuth, or transactional email with DKIM/SPF/DMARC. Includes staging rig, integration tests in CI, error-path coverage, and a written runbook for future key rotations. Full refund if we miss the 5-day scope.

§ 01/diagnostic matrix

Symptoms an AI app integration fix resolves

Every row is a real intake we have shipped. Symptom column is how founders describe it; root cause is what we find on the first trace; fix column is what lands in the repo on Day 2.

§ 02/5-day schedule

5-day Stripe webhook fix schedule, day by day

The clock starts when staging access lands. Every day has a keyword-rich deliverable; nothing touches production until Day 4.

  1. D1Day 1

    Stripe webhook + auth scope lock

    30-minute scope call and repo access. Exact integration slot agreed: Stripe Checkout, Supabase auth, custom domain, or transactional email. Staging environment provisioned, test keys captured.

  2. D2Day 2

    Signature verify + idempotency build

    Webhook handler rebuilt with stripe.webhooks.constructEvent signature verification, idempotency key lookup, and full subscription lifecycle events (paid, failed, cancelled, refunded, upgraded, downgraded).

  3. D3Day 3

    Staging integration tests in CI

    Integration tests run on every PR — webhook replay via Stripe CLI, OAuth callback simulation, Supabase RLS insert test. No manual click-through. Error paths covered: network 5xx, expired tokens, rate limits.

  4. D4Day 4

    Production cutover + DNS propagation

    Live keys rotated, production webhook endpoint registered, OAuth redirect URIs updated on Google/GitHub, Supabase Site URL set. One real transaction tested end-to-end before handoff.

  5. D5Day 5

    Runbook + handoff Loom

    Written runbook: how to rotate the Stripe webhook signing secret, register a new provider, debug a failed event, and add a new plan. 30-minute Loom walks through every moving part so the founder can respond to vendor incidents unassisted.

§ 03/what ships on day 2

What a working Stripe webhook fix actually looks like

This is the file we ship on Day 2 for 80% of integration-fix intakes.stripe.webhooks.constructEventverifies the signature against the signing secret from the Stripe webhook signatures guide, the stripe_events lookup dedupes retries, and the lifecycle switch routes paid, failed, cancelled, and refunded events into a single sync function. The AI-generated version skips all three.

Signature verify + idempotency lookup + full lifecycle sync. Next.js App Router route handler.
§ 04/deliverable ledger

Eight deliverables every AI app integration fix ships

§ 05/scope + price

One integration fix, one fixed price, one written runbook

Integration Fix is intentionally one of four pre-defined slots. Stripe webhook fix, Lovable auth fix / Supabase integration fix, custom domain cutover, or transactional email. The constraint matters: integration work is where AI generators waste the most credits — every founder describes the same multi-week debug loop on the same single integration. The engagement is calibrated to end the loop, not to extend it.

The runbook is the deliverable that pays back longest. Six months from now, when Stripe rotates a webhook signing secret or your email vendor changes a DKIM key, the runbook tells you which file to update and which command to run. Without it, every integration becomes a re-discovery exercise. With it, integrations stay boring — which is the goal.

AI app integration fix vs hourly dev vs full rewrite

Against a $150/hour contractor or a 12-week rewrite, the 5-day AI app integration fix ships the same production-grade pattern for 1/10th the cost and 1/8th the time.

Pick this AI app integration fix if…

  • Stripe Checkout succeeds and your database never updates the subscription — classic webhook signature + idempotency miss.
  • You shipped on Lovable or Bolt.new, the auth fix worked in preview, and real users 500 on the production domain.
  • Supabase RLS blocks the insert that worked in the builder — the server-side client and service-role key need rewiring.
  • Your launch day is blocked on DNS, SSL, and OAuth redirect alignment for a custom domain cutover.
  • Password reset emails go to spam and the email vendor's DKIM/SPF/DMARC records were never set.

Don't pick integration fix if…

  • You need a full billing system with proration, tax, and enterprise invoicing — that is Finish My MVP ($7,499).
  • Three unrelated integrations are broken at once — run each as its own 5-day fix, back-to-back, or book Break-the-Fix-Loop.
  • You don't know what's broken yet — book the free Rescue Diagnostic first, then pick the right integration slot.
  • The integration works but the whole codebase is unreadable — that's AI-Generated Code Cleanup ($3,999).
  • You want someone to 'look at it for a few hours' — integration fix is fixed-scope, not hourly.

FAQ
What exactly does one AI app integration fix include?
One integration, end-to-end. Stripe Checkout plus the full subscription webhook lifecycle (paid, failed, cancelled, refunded, upgraded, downgraded) with signature verification and idempotency. Or Supabase/Clerk/Auth.js auth with session refresh, password reset, email verification, and role checks. Or a custom domain with DNS, SSL, and OAuth redirect alignment. Or transactional email with DKIM/SPF/DMARC on the sending domain. Pick one — integration tests in CI and a written runbook are always included.
Why do Lovable and Bolt.new struggle so badly with Stripe webhook fixes?
Stripe's own 2024 benchmark on AI coding assistants showed high failure rates on exactly the integration primitives Lovable and Bolt.new miss: webhook signature verification, idempotency on retries, and the Checkout-to-subscription-to-database sync path. The AI generates code that looks right and compiles but silently skips stripe.webhooks.constructEvent, never dedupes the event ID, or only listens for checkout.session.completed. We write the pattern that handles every lifecycle event and survives Stripe's retry storm.
Can you do a Stripe webhook fix and a Lovable auth fix together?
Sometimes, yes — but usually cleaner to run them back-to-back as two 5-day clocks. Stripe this sprint, auth next sprint. If the two overlap (for example, auth rewire that changes the Stripe customer ID mapping), we quote it on the diagnostic call. Two unrelated integrations stay two engagements because each has its own staging rig, its own integration test suite, and its own production cutover.
What if my tool isn't Lovable or Bolt.new?
We run the AI app integration fix against Lovable, Bolt.new, Replit, Cursor, v0, Base44, Windsurf, Claude Code, and hand-written apps on Next.js, Remix, SvelteKit, Nuxt, Vite/React, Python FastAPI, or Django. The underlying integration patterns — webhook signature verification, OAuth redirect URIs, RLS policies, DKIM records — do not care which tool wrote the first draft.
What if the Supabase integration fix reveals a schema problem?
We ship the integration fix that was scoped (RLS policy, server-side client move, service-role off the browser) and flag any schema work as a separate engagement. Typical path is Integration Fix this week, Break-the-Fix-Loop or a dedicated migration engagement next. We do not silently expand scope mid-engagement — the 5-day clock and fixed price depend on it.
What if you miss the 5-day deadline?
Full refund on genuine scope miss, same promise as Emergency Triage. The 5-day clock starts when staging access lands; if scope creeps mid-engagement (you decide you need three Stripe plans instead of one), we quote the addition and you either approve or ship what's done. Miss on agreed scope = refund, no argument.
Can Integration Fix cover an entire billing system from scratch?
No — that is Finish My MVP ($7,499) or a custom engagement. AI app integration fix is scoped for 'the integration exists and is broken', not 'we need to design a billing system with proration, tax, and enterprise invoicing'. If the diagnostic call reveals a from-scratch build, we quote Finish My MVP instead and apply the diagnostic toward that engagement.
