Built a social platform with Claude 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 Claude Code apps
Building a social platform with Claude 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 Claude Code social platform
Common Claude Code issues we fix
Beyond social platform-specific issues, these are Claude Code patterns we commonly fix.
Over-permissive CORS configuration
Claude Code sometimes sets CORS to allow all origins during development and forgets to restrict it for production, allowing any website to make API requests.
Missing rate limiting
API endpoints are generated without rate limiting, allowing attackers to brute-force auth endpoints or abuse expensive operations.
Over-engineered abstractions
Claude Code creates multiple layers of abstraction, generic utilities, and design patterns for simple problems — making the code harder to understand and maintain.
Edge cases in complex logic
While Claude handles the main flow well, complex conditional logic sometimes has edge cases that produce incorrect results with unusual inputs.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a social platform with Claude Code?
Claude 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 Claude Code leave in social platforms?
Common issues include: over-permissive cors configuration, missing rate limiting, over-engineered abstractions. For a social platform specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for content moderation and safety.
How do I make my Claude Code social platform production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Claude 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 Claude 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.
