Show us the invoice from the agency that failed you.
We'll match the brief, ship in 14 days, and you only pay 50% on signature. The other 50% releases when the build is live. If we miss the date — full refund. Written into the contract, not a marketing promise.
If you're reading this, this is what you're facing
- Six months in, three deadlines missed, you've already paid €25K and have a half-broken staging site no one can deploy. Now they want another invoice for "discovery v2".
- The lead developer "left". Their replacement has no context, asks for re-onboarding budget. Your code lives in their GitHub org, not yours.
- You can't sue (or you don't want to spend two years suing). You just need it shipped, by someone who actually ships.
How we fix it
Synelo specialises in agency-recovery rebuilds. We take your existing brief — even if it's been chewed up by the previous vendor — and ship a working production system in 14 days. You pay half on contract, half on go-live. If we miss the agreed date, you get a refund. Code lives in your GitHub from day one. We don't hold anything hostage and we don't need a discovery phase to repeat what you already paid for.
What's in the package
How it works
- Day 0. Brief intake. You send the failed agency's latest brief / staging site / contract. 30-minute call. We respond with a fixed quote and SOW within 24 hours.
- Day 1. Contract + 50% deposit. Signed SOW with refund-on-miss clause. 50% paid. Code repository created in your GitHub org with us as collaborators.
- Days 2–11. Build. Senior engineers shipping. Daily async Loom updates. Staging visible to you from day three. No surprises.
- Days 12–14. QA + deploy. Final QA pass, production deploy to your domain, handover documentation. 50% balance released. You own everything.
Who this is for
- Founders mid-project with a vendor that stopped delivering
- Companies stuck with code they don't own
- Teams who paid for "discovery" and got slides
- Anyone with a staging URL that's been "next week" for three months
- B2B platforms whose investors want shipped product before next round
- Companies that need it done before a hard external deadline (compliance, conference launch, sales-cycle window)
Frequently asked
What if the failed agency holds our code hostage?
Common, painful, solvable. Most "code lock-in" is contractual, not technical — the previous SOW didn't transfer IP. We help you draft the recovery letter that triggers the IP-handover obligation in the original contract (almost every European jurisdiction has implied IP transfer in service agreements). If they truly refuse, we rebuild from the public surface — your domain, your designs, your data — and ship in 14 days regardless.
What if we've already spent the budget?
That's the wrong question to ask us — ask yourself. Synelo's rebuild starts at €1,990 (Performance sprint) and tops at €5,990 (Full rebuild). If the original budget is exhausted but the project still needs to ship, the 50% deposit may be all you can find. We accept smaller-scope contracts when the alternative is the project never shipping.
Can we do this discreetly while the previous vendor is still on contract?
Yes. We've done this many times. We work in parallel: you keep the previous vendor on a maintenance retainer (or wind them down on a 30-day notice), we build the replacement in your repo, you switch DNS on go-live day. The previous vendor learns about it when their staging URL stops being checked.
What happens if you miss the 14-day deadline?
You get a full refund. The contract clause is "If Production Deploy has not occurred by [Date], Customer is entitled to a full refund of all amounts paid, with no penalty and no obligation to retain the deliverable." We've never paid out — but the clause exists because it should. If we don't believe we can ship in 14 days for your scope, we don't sign.
