Send what exists
A link to the repository, the design files, the hosting and any logins you have. If you are missing some of them, tell us which.
Challenge · Abandoned project
Your agency or freelancer disappeared halfway through. We finish it, or tell you why not.
The site or app is half built, the messages go unanswered and the money has already left. 99 Francs® reads what exists, code, designs, hosting and accounts, and sends you a free written review within 48 hours. If it is worth finishing, we quote a fixed price before any work starts. If a rebuild is the honest answer, we say that instead.
Free review. Finishing is quoted after the review, so you never pay for a guess.

Direct answer
99 Francs finishes website and app projects that an agency or freelancer left unfinished.
You give us whatever exists. Within 48 hours you get a free written review of the code, designs, hosting and accounts, with an honest call between finishing and rebuilding. We help you recover access to accounts and repositories that you own. Finishing is then quoted as one fixed price, agreed before work starts.
Signs you are here
A project that stopped is not always a lost project. You may be here because:
The messages stopped
Weeks of silence, then excuses, then nothing. You paid for work you cannot see and have no idea how much of it is real.
You do not know what you own
The code sits in somebody else's repository, the hosting is under their login and the domain is registered to them. Until that is clear, nobody can take over.
Half the pages or screens exist
Some parts look finished and some are placeholders. Without a review it is hard to tell which half is solid.
A new agency wants to start over
Sometimes a rebuild is right. Sometimes it is the most expensive way to avoid reading what already works.
The launch date has passed
A campaign, an investor meeting or a store listing was waiting on this, and the date is gone.
What we do
Read first, quote second, finish third.
Nothing starts before you have the review and a price in writing.
Written review in 48 hours
What is built, what works, what is missing, what is risky, and whether it is worth finishing. Free, no obligation.
Recover access
We help you get back into the accounts and repositories that belong to you: registrar, hosting, source code, app store accounts. We do not touch anything that is not yours.
Fixed price to finish
One price for the remaining work, agreed before it starts. If a rebuild is cheaper than finishing, we say so and quote that instead.
Finish or rebuild
We tell you which, and why.
A review that always ends in a rebuild is a sales pitch. This is how we decide.
We finish when
The structure is sound, the code is readable and the remaining work is mostly content, polish or a few missing features. Keeping it costs less than replacing it.
We rebuild when
The foundation fights every change, access or ownership is a mess that cannot be fixed, or finishing would cost more than starting clean. We show you the reasons.
We say no when
The project cannot be done for the budget or the date you have in mind. You hear that in the review, not three weeks later.
Pricing
Free review, then a price agreed in writing.

Support round on a live WordPress site for a Hobsonville townhouse development. Found an enquiry form that was silently rejecting every submission, diagnosed why the emails were quarantined, and moved agents, viewing dates and hero media into fields the client edits himself.

Questions people ask before they write to us.
Whatever you have: a link to the repository or the files, the design files, the site address and any logins. If you are missing access to some of it, tell us which parts and we start from there.
We help you recover access to accounts and repositories that you own, such as the domain registrar, hosting and source control, by working out who holds them and what to ask for. We cannot take anything that belongs to someone else.
You get the written report within 48 hours of giving us access. It is free and carries no obligation.
We do not quote a "from" price for finishing, because it depends on what the review finds. After the review you get one fixed price for the remaining work, agreed before anything starts.
Yes. If a rebuild is cheaper or safer than finishing, the review says so with the reasons. A rebuild then uses our standard prices: a web app is US$5,000–8,000 for a tight scope, and websites follow our site prices.
Small fixes on a live site are billed at US$30 an hour, flat. We estimate the hours first and you approve the total before we start.
A site or landing page is paid once, when it is done. An app or custom build is paid at the end of each phase. There is no deposit.
