VibeShield — Security & Quality Audit Platform for Vibe-Coded Apps

The "vibe coding hangover" is real and accelerating. Millions of non-developers and junior developers are shipping production apps built with Lovable, Bolt.new, Replit, and Cursor — but the code is riddled with security holes and quality issues.

The Problem (with evidence)

The "vibe coding hangover" is real and accelerating. Millions of non-developers and junior developers are shipping production apps built with Lovable, Bolt.new, Replit, and Cursor — but the code is riddled with security holes and quality issues.

Evidence:

  • "AI co-authored code may contain 1.7 times more major issues" — Research cited across multiple 2026 studies
  • "Vib-OS, an entirely vibe-coded operating system, was demonstrated to be largely unusable and riddled with bugs" — Futurism, March 2026
  • "Trust in AI-generated code has declined, with only 33% of developers fully trusting its accuracy in 2026"
  • r/vibecoding: "My experience vibe coding so far — am I the issue?" — hundreds of comments about broken apps, exposed keys
  • r/learnprogramming: Multiple threads about security vulnerabilities in AI-generated code
  • Kaspersky published a dedicated advisory on "vibe coding risks" in 2026

The typical vibe coder has:

  1. Built something cool in 2 hours
  2. Deployed it to Vercel/Netlify
  3. No idea their Supabase rules are wide-open, API keys are in client-side code, and there's no rate limiting
