Affordable API Development ServicesAPI Development
Get production-ready APIs built by senior engineers in 8-12 weeks. Fixed pricing from $80K means no surprises on your bill.
IRPR builds affordable API development services for companies that need custom data integration, microservices, or backend services. We use Node.js, Python, Go, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and cloud platforms like AWS and Azure.
Each project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. Our APIs meet compliance standards like HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2.
We work with CTOs at funded startups who need a scalable backend, product managers who need third-party integrations, and engineering leads who need to offload API development to a senior team.
Types of software we ship.
REST API Development
Build RESTful APIs with Express.js or Django REST Framework. Supports versioning, rate limiting, and OpenAPI documentation.
GraphQL API Development
Implement GraphQL APIs with Apollo Server or Hasura. Enables flexible queries and efficient data fetching.

Why Affordable API Development Services Matter
Companies waste $500B annually on failed digital projects. Our APIs ship on time and on budget.
Generic agencies often charge hourly rates that balloon as scope creeps. IRPR fixes the price up front, so you know exactly what you pay. Senior engineers build 8-12 week APIs that meet your exact specifications.
Compliance is built in from day one. Whether you need HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or SOC 2, we design the API architecture to meet those standards without expensive retrofitting.
Generic Agency vs IRPR Affordable API Development
Not all API development services deliver the same value.
Most agencies bill hourly, hand work to juniors, and deliver untested code. Their APIs break under load and require expensive maintenance contracts.
IRPR takes a different approach: senior engineers, fixed price, and production-ready deliverables. We build APIs that scale and stay secure.
- Hourly billing with unpredictable costs
- Junior developers learning on your dime
- No compliance awareness
- Siloed code with no documentation
- Long timelines with scope creep
- Handoff without post-launch support
- Fixed price from $80K
- Senior engineers only (10+ years)
- Built to HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2 by default
- OpenAPI docs with test coverage
- 8-12 week delivery with clear milestones
- Sentry monitoring and Slack support included
How We Build Affordable APIs in 4 Phases
Our process moves from idea to production API in 8-12 weeks.
Each phase has clear deliverables and checkpoints. You see progress weekly and can adjust scope without changing the price.
By week 2 you sign off on the architecture. By week 6 you have a staging environment. By week 12 your API is live with full monitoring.
What Ships With Every Affordable API Project
Every API delivery includes these deliverables by default.
No hidden line items or optional extras. These are standard in every IRPR project.
- Source code in your private GitHub repository
- OpenAPI 3.0 specification document
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions and automated tests
- Sentry error tracking and Datadog performance monitoring
- Postman collection for every endpoint
- Rate limiting and authentication (JWT or OAuth 2.0)
- Unit and integration test suite with 80%+ coverage
- Production deployment on AWS, GCP, or Azure
- 30-minute response SLA for critical bugs post-launch
- One hour of async Slack support per week for 3 months

Why teams hire us.
Fixed Price, Not Hourly
Every affordable API project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing means no surprise invoices — the price we quote is the price you pay.
Senior Engineers Only
Our team averages 10+ years of API development experience. We do not staff junior developers on client projects.
Compliance Built In
We build APIs that meet HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 standards by default. No need to retrofit security after the fact.
8-12 Week Delivery
Most projects ship in 8-12 weeks from kickoff to production. Clear milestones keep everyone on track.
Full Code Ownership
You own all source code, documentation, and test suites. No licensing fees or vendor lock-in — the API is yours to run.
Post-Launch Support
Every API comes with 30 days of active support and a 30-minute response SLA for critical bugs. We stay until you are confident.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
