Expert review for OpenAI API integrations built with Base44. We fix Base44-generated OpenAI API code for security, error handling & production readiness. From $19.
Common Base44 issues affecting integrations
Platform lock-in makes it expensive to migrate to self-hosted infrastructure
Base44 applications run on Base44's infrastructure with proprietary abstractions. If you need to migrate to AWS, Vercel, or a custom backend, you must substantially rewrite the application since the generated code is tightly coupled to Base44's runtime.
Auto-generated backend API lacks input validation and allows malformed data into the database
Base44's generated REST API endpoints often accept and persist any data that matches the field type without business-rule validation — missing required fields, out-of-range values, or invalid relationships are stored without error.
Limited customization of business logic after the initial app generation
Once Base44 generates the application structure, adding custom business logic that deviates from the generated patterns — complex workflows, conditional processing, third-party integrations — requires working around the platform rather than with it.
OpenAI API issues we find in Base44 apps
API key exposed in client-side code
AI-generated code calls the OpenAI API directly from the browser using NEXT_PUBLIC_ prefixed environment variables, exposing your API key to every visitor.
No rate limiting or cost controls on proxy endpoint
Generated server-side proxy endpoints call OpenAI without rate limiting, allowing users to make unlimited requests and run up thousands of dollars in API costs.
Streaming response not handled correctly
AI tools implement chat streaming but don't properly handle stream errors, connection drops, or the [DONE] sentinel, causing hanging requests or missing response content.

Frequently asked questions
Can you review my Base44-built OpenAI API integration?
Yes. We regularly audit OpenAI API integrations in Base44-built apps. We check for proper error handling, security best practices, and production-ready configuration.
What OpenAI API issues does Base44 typically create?
Common issues in Base44-generated OpenAI API code include: api key exposed in client-side code, no rate limiting or cost controls on proxy endpoint, streaming response not handled correctly. We fix all of these in our code review.
How much does it cost to fix my OpenAI API integration?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a complete list of OpenAI API issues. Most integration fixes are included in our Fix & Ship plan ($199). For complex integrations, we provide a custom quote after the audit.
What OpenAI API best practices does Base44 typically miss?
AI tools often skip webhook signature verification, proper error handling for API failures, retry logic with exponential backoff, and secure token storage for OpenAI API. Our review checks all of these and provides specific fixes.
