Bubble Migration

Own Your Code. Migration Pays for Itself in 9 Months.

Escape Bubble's scaling limits — 15-30 second page loads, 100 rows/second caps. Investors require code ownership. We migrate you to React/Next.js + Node.js with zero downtime.

The Bubble Ceiling

Bubble is perfect for validation. You can build and ship a product in days, test with real users, and iterate without code. But as you grow, you hit the "Bubble Ceiling"—performance degrades, costs skyrocket, and investors start asking questions.

The tipping point is usually around 1,000 active users or when you're paying $500+/month for a plan that still throttles you at 100 database operations per second. At that point, custom code becomes both faster and cheaper.

Migration isn't a nice-to-have. It's a requirement to scale past the early stage.

Zero-Downtime Migration

The biggest fear with migration is: "What if something breaks?" We eliminate that risk entirely with parallel builds.

Your Bubble app stays live and serving users while we build the custom version. We replicate every feature, migrate your data in a staging environment, and test thoroughly. When we're ready, we cut over traffic in a single operation.

  • No downtime: Users never see a maintenance window.
  • Safe rollback: If anything is wrong, we immediately revert traffic to Bubble.
  • Full data preservation: Every user, every record, every relationship is migrated intact.

Migration is not a risky rewrite. It's a controlled, tested transition.

What We Solve

Scaling Limits

Escape Bubble's 15-30 second page loads, 100 rows/second caps, and performance ceilings that kill growth.

Cost Optimization

Bubble's pricing scales poorly. Custom code hosting costs $50-200/month vs. $500+ for throttled Bubble plans.

Investor Requirements

Most investors require code ownership for due diligence. Migration makes you fundable.

True Ownership

Own your codebase. No platform lock-in. Hire any developer to work on it.

Custom Integrations

Build integrations Bubble can't handle. Connect to any API without plugins or workarounds.

Performance & UX

Sub-second page loads. Native mobile feel. The experience modern users expect.

Our Process

1

Audit

Map your Bubble app's features, data model, and workflows completely.

2

Architecture

Design the custom code architecture. Plan data migration strategy to preserve everything.

3

Parallel Build

Build custom app while Bubble app stays live. Zero downtime for your users.

4

Migration

Migrate data, cut over traffic in one operation, and decommission Bubble.

Trusted by Founders

★★★★★
"We were paying $600/month for Bubble and still hitting capacity limits. Migration cost $22K but paid for itself in hosting savings and unlocked growth we couldn't achieve on Bubble."
Marcus R.
Founder, Marketplace Platform
★★★★★
"Investors kept asking 'do you own your code?' We didn't. Migration was a requirement to close our seed round. Kenyx made it seamless."

Investment

Migration investment depends on app complexity. ROI typically within 9 months through reduced platform costs:

Simple App

$15-25K

Basic CRUD apps with standard auth. 6-8 week migration.

Complex App

$30-50K

Multiple workflows, integrations, complex data. 10-14 weeks.

Enterprise

$50K+

Large-scale apps with custom requirements. Scoped individually.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. We build the custom app in parallel while your Bubble app stays live. We migrate data and cut over traffic in a single operation. If anything goes wrong, we can roll back immediately. Your users experience zero downtime.
Simple apps (basic CRUD, standard auth) take 6-8 weeks. Complex apps with workflows, integrations, and custom logic take 10-14 weeks. We work in parallel with your live Bubble app, so there's no rush.
Yes. Some clients migrate their customer-facing app first and keep their admin panel in Bubble temporarily. We design a migration strategy that fits your priorities and budget.
We export all data from Bubble's database and migrate it to PostgreSQL (or your preferred database). We preserve all relationships, user records, and historical data. Nothing is lost.
No. Once the migration is complete and verified, you can cancel your Bubble subscription. You'll own the code and host it on your own infrastructure (typically Vercel or AWS).
