Launch Checklist for AI-Built Apps in 2026

RAAV is not a readiness scanner. It is the visible memory and audit layer that lets a founder see what agents built, what was verified, and what still needs sign-off before launch night.

RAAV does not score your readiness — it makes it visible

In 2026 most solo founders ship with agents. RAAV is not a coding agent and not a production-readiness checker. It is persistent product and project memory — a flat CLAUDE.md is also memory, but RAAV's difference is that the founder-agent loop is visible.

Launch readiness is an output you watch in the swimlanes and the audit trail, not a checklist RAAV grades. The three pillars: memory you can review (product truth and founder decisions), work you can watch (backlog, lanes, verification in flight), and agents you can supervise (the audit trail of what shipped and what passed).

Before you announce

Confirm auth, payments, and email flows were tested end-to-end — not just demoed once in chat.

Close or explicitly accept every critical ticket. Run recorded verification on material fixes.

Clear the founder decision queue for scope, pricing, and known limitations.

Agent-specific risks

Watch for fixes that were marked done without verification, duplicate work across sessions, and security regressions when a new agent touches auth.

Use lanes and claims so only one agent owns a surface at a time.

Ship workflow

Install RAAV, map launch blockers to tickets, feed fixes back to your agent with scoped tasks, re-verify, then export the audit trail as proof for launch night.

RAAV is local-first and zero-LLM by default, and it is not a coding agent — your agent keeps coding while RAAV keeps the record. The local tier is free; hosted Solo and Team plans are on the waitlist and not for sale yet.
