Affordable Custom API Development ServicesAPI Development
We build custom APIs that cost less than hiring a full team. Get a fixed price quote in 2 weeks.
IRPR builds custom APIs for web apps, mobile backends, and third-party integrations. We use Node.js, Python, Go, and serverless on AWS.
A typical custom API ships in 8-12 weeks with fixed pricing from $80K to $250K. All APIs meet PCI-DSS, HIPAA, or SOC 2 requirements if needed.
Our clients are startup CTOs who need a core API for their product, enterprise teams replacing legacy integrations, and SaaS founders building a B2B integration layer.

Why affordable custom APIs matter
Affordable custom APIs are built with the right architecture from day one.
A well-designed API saves months of rework. IRPR uses RESTful conventions, GraphQL for complex queries, and serverless to keep costs low.
Every API includes automated tests, performance benchmarks, and rate limiting. You get a production-ready service without surprise bills.
Generic dev shops vs IRPR
Many shops charge hourly and miss deadlines. We fix that.
Hourly billing leads to scope creep and overruns. IRPR gives you a fixed price after the Roadmap phase.
We ship in 8-12 weeks with full documentation and compliance. You own every line of code.
- Hourly billing
- No fixed scope
- Unknown delivery date
- Cutting features to ship
- Code not documented
- No compliance understanding
- Fixed price from week 2
- Clear scope in Roadmap
- 8-12 week timeline
- Full feature set ships
- Auto-documented APIs (Swagger)
- HIPAA/PCI/SOC 2 ready
Our process for building your API
We follow a 4-phase process to deliver your API on time and on budget.
Each phase includes a checkpoint with your team. You see working code every week.
The Roadmap phase locks the price and timeline. No surprises after that.
What ships with every API
Every custom API comes with these deliverables built in.
- Source code in your GitHub repo
- OpenAPI/Swagger docs
- Postman collection
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- Sentry error tracking
- AWS or GCP deployment
- Unit and integration tests
- Performance benchmarks
- Rate limiting and auth middleware
- Written API usage guide
