Why choose an affordable backend development company
Affordable does not mean cheap. It means efficient, focused, and transparent.
IRPR delivers affordable backend development by eliminating overhead. Our senior engineers use proven frameworks and CI/CD automation to reduce iteration time. We do not bill for discovery meetings or code reviews - that is all included in the fixed price.
Our clients consistently report 30% lower total cost compared to hourly billed agencies. With 200+ projects shipped, we have refined a repeatable process that delivers production-ready backends in 12 weeks.
The IRPR difference in backend development
Most backend agencies pad hours and over-engineer. We build only what you need, on time and on budget.
When you work with a generic development shop, you often get junior developers learning on your dime. Timelines slip, costs balloon, and you have no code ownership until paid in full. IRPR is different.
We assign senior engineers with 10+ years of experience. Every project has a fixed price from week two, a guaranteed 12-week timeline, and you own the code from day one. We also include monitoring and error tracking as standard.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior developers with little oversight
- No fixed timeline
- Code ownership only after final payment
- No monitoring or error tracking included
- Scope creep charges for every change
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase (week 2)
- Senior engineers only (10+ years experience)
- Guaranteed 12-week delivery
- Full code ownership from day one
- Sentry error tracking and Datadog monitoring included
- No hidden fees - change requests priced transparently
Our backend development process in 4 phases
From idea to production in 12 weeks. Each phase has clear deliverables and a fixed price.
Our process removes ambiguity. We start with a 1-week Idea phase to define scope, then commit to a fixed price in the Roadmap phase. The Build phase uses two-week sprints with demos at the end of each one. Finally, we deploy and hand over full documentation.
You are never in the dark. Every sprint includes a working build, automated tests, and a demo video. Changes are easy to make because our architecture is modular from the start.
What ships with every backend project
Everything you need to run, maintain, and scale your backend after launch.
We do not just hand over code. Every project includes infrastructure as code, monitoring, documentation, and automated deployments. You can hand the project to any developer and they will understand it within hours.
Our default stack is production-hardened. We use Terraform for infrastructure, GitHub Actions for CI/CD, and Docker for consistent environments. All secrets are managed with AWS Secrets Manager.
- Source code in private GitHub repository
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- Docker containers with docker-compose
- Terraform infrastructure code (IaC)
- API documentation (Swagger/OpenAPI)
- Monitoring with Datadog (uptime, latency, errors)
- Error tracking with Sentry
- Load testing scripts (k6 or Artillery)
- Postman collection for all endpoints
- Deployment runbook with rollback instructions
