Built a social platform with Augment Code?
We'll make it production-ready.
Social platforms are uniquely complex because your users create the content, interact with each other, and expect real-time responsiveness. AI tools can build feeds, profiles, and posting features, but the hard problems — content moderation, abuse prevention, notification systems, and handling viral growth — require careful engineering that AI tools don't provide.
Social Platform challenges in Augment Code apps
Building a social platform with Augment Code is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
Content moderation and safety
Users will post spam, harassment, illegal content, and misinformation. You need automated content filtering, user reporting flows, admin moderation tools, and clear community guidelines enforcement. Launching without moderation is a legal and reputational risk.
Feed algorithm and performance
A chronological feed is simple but doesn't scale — loading thousands of posts to sort them on every request kills performance. AI tools build basic feeds that work with 50 posts but crawl with 50,000. You need pagination, caching, and potentially a ranking algorithm.
User-generated content storage
Images, videos, and files uploaded by users need proper storage — CDN delivery, format optimization, size limits, and malware scanning. AI tools implement basic file upload but skip content delivery optimization and security scanning.
Notification system
Likes, comments, follows, mentions, and messages all generate notifications across multiple channels — in-app, push, and email. Building a notification system that's timely without being spammy, and that handles user preferences, is a complex infrastructure challenge.
Privacy and blocking
Users need to control who sees their content, block other users, and manage their privacy settings. AI tools build public-by-default profiles without the privacy controls users expect and regulations require.
Abuse prevention
Fake accounts, bots, spam rings, and coordinated harassment are inevitable on any social platform. You need rate limiting on actions (follows, messages, posts), bot detection, and account verification to protect your legitimate users.
What we check in your Augment Code social platform
Common Augment Code issues we fix
Beyond social platform-specific issues, these are Augment Code patterns we commonly fix.
Cross-module dependency suggestions that violate architectural boundaries
Augment Code's broad codebase awareness can lead it to suggest importing modules or calling functions across architectural layers that should be decoupled — for example, suggesting a UI component directly call a database utility instead of going through a service layer.
Security patterns from older parts of the codebase propagated to new code
When the codebase contains legacy code with deprecated or insecure patterns, Augment Code learns from those patterns and may suggest them in new code, spreading outdated authentication, validation, or encryption approaches.
Suggestions mirror existing buggy patterns rather than fixing the root cause
If the codebase has a consistent bug pattern — such as a missing null check in multiple similar functions — Augment Code will replicate that bug in new suggestions because it learns from existing code rather than reasoning about correctness.
Monorepo package boundary confusion leads to circular import suggestions
In large monorepos with shared packages, Augment Code sometimes suggests imports that create circular dependencies between packages, which can cause build failures or subtle runtime initialization order bugs.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a social platform with Augment Code?
Augment Code is a great starting point for a social platform. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but social platforms have specific requirements — content moderation and safety and feed algorithm and performance — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Augment Code leave in social platforms?
Common issues include: cross-module dependency suggestions that violate architectural boundaries, security patterns from older parts of the codebase propagated to new code, suggestions mirror existing buggy patterns rather than fixing the root cause. For a social platform specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for content moderation and safety.
How do I make my Augment Code social platform production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Augment Code-built social platforms, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a Augment Code-built social platform?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger social platform projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
