Affordable Node.js API Development AgencyAPI Development
We build production-grade Node.js APIs in 12 weeks. Fixed price from $80K.
IRPR is an affordable Node.js API development agency. We build REST and GraphQL APIs using Express.js, Fastify, and NestJS on Node.js 20. Our APIs integrate with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and cloud services on AWS or GCP.
Every project ships in 12-14 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. We handle deployment, monitoring, and compliance for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2. Code is fully owned by you with a CI/CD pipeline included.
CTOs hire us to replace slow in-house builds. Startup founders need a production-ready API before their next funding round. Enterprise teams want a dedicated Node.js squad to unblock their product roadmap. We work async-first with daily overlap during US business hours.

Why choose an affordable Node.js API development agency
IRPR delivers production-grade Node.js APIs at fixed prices, not hourly rates.
Most agencies charge by the hour, making budgets unpredictable. IRPR gives you a fixed quote after a 2-week Roadmap phase. You know the exact cost before any code is written. Our average API project costs $80K to $250K and ships in 12 weeks.
We have shipped over 200 APIs across 50 countries. Our APIs handle 10,000+ requests per second in production. Every API includes automated tests, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring with Sentry and Datadog.
How IRPR compares to other agencies
IRPR is an affordable Node.js API development agency that delivers on time and on budget.
Generic dev shops often start with vague estimates and change scope mid-project. They use junior developers and cut corners on testing. You end up with a slow, insecure API that needs a rewrite within a year.
IRPR assigns senior Node.js engineers only. Every API goes through code review, load testing, and security audit. We provide a fixed price after the Roadmap phase and stick to it.
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior developers with little Node.js experience
- No automated tests or CI/CD
- Unclear API documentation
- No performance benchmarks
- No compliance support
- Fixed price from $80K
- Senior Node.js engineers only
- Automated tests, CI/CD, and monitoring included
- OpenAPI / GraphQL schema documentation
- Load tested to 10K+ req/s
- HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2 compliance built in
Our process for building your Node.js API
We deliver a production-ready API in 12 weeks using a proven 4-phase process.
Every project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase. We map out endpoints, data models, integrations, and security requirements. You get a fixed price and a detailed timeline before any development begins.
After approval, we build the API in 6-8 weeks with weekly demos. The final 2 weeks are for load testing, security review, and deployment. You own the code and infrastructure from day one.
What ships with every Node.js API project
Every API includes these deliverables at no extra cost.
You get complete ownership of the source code, infrastructure, and documentation. No lock-in, no hidden fees. IRPR sets up everything needed to run and maintain your API in production.
We also include a 30-day post-launch support period. If any issues arise, we fix them within 24 hours.
- Source code in your GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Docker containers for local and production
- OpenAPI 3.0 or GraphQL schema documentation
- Automated unit and integration tests (80%+ coverage)
- Load test results (10K+ req/s)
- Sentry error tracking and Datadog monitoring
- Deployment scripts for AWS or GCP
- Postman collection or GraphQL playground
- 30-day post-launch support
