Best Backend API Development PartnerAPI Development
You need APIs that scale. IRPR builds REST and GraphQL backends with 200+ products shipped.
IRPR builds backend APIs for web and mobile apps. We use Node.js, Python, Rust, and Go with PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS.
Most MVPs ship in 8-12 weeks with fixed pricing from $80K to $250K. APIs meet SOC 2, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS compliance.
Startups looking for a CTO-level backend partner, SaaS founders scaling their platform, and enterprise teams needing a dedicated API team hire us.
Types of software we ship.
Custom REST API
We design RESTful endpoints with OpenAPI 3.0 specs. Each endpoint handles auth, rate limiting, and caching with Redis.
GraphQL API Gateway
Apollo Federation unifies multiple microservices into a single GraphQL schema. Clients query exactly what they need.
Microservices Backend
Break monolithic apps into Dockerized services with Kubernetes orchestration. Each service scales independently.
Real-time API (WebSocket)
WebSocket APIs push live data to clients. We use Socket.IO or AWS API Gateway WebSockets for real-time feeds.
Serverless API (AWS Lambda)
Lambda functions with API Gateway handle variable loads. No servers to manage, pay per request.
API Integration Layer
Connect Stripe, Salesforce, HubSpot, and 50+ third-party APIs through a unified backend layer.
Database API (Hasura)
Instant GraphQL APIs from your database. Hasura with PostgreSQL gives real-time queries and subscriptions.
Backend for Mobile App
Mobile app backend with push notifications, offline sync, and user auth. Firebase or custom Node.js backend.
We build for every business type.
Healthcare
Fintech
SaaS
Ecommerce
Logistics
Proven backend API delivery
IRPR has shipped backend APIs for over 200 products worldwide.
Our team of senior engineers delivers production-ready APIs in 8-12 weeks. Every API is built with CI/CD, monitoring, and documentation.
Clients in 50+ countries trust our backend APIs. We maintain 99.9% uptime with AWS infrastructure.
Generic dev shop vs IRPR
Not all API development partners deliver the same quality.
Many dev shops bill hourly and change scope. They assign junior developers and skip documentation.
IRPR gives you a fixed price senior team. We write API specs first, then build with unit tests and CI/CD.
- Hourly billing with scope creep
- Junior developers with no senior oversight
- No API specification before coding
- Missing unit and integration tests
- No CI/CD pipeline
- Sparse or no documentation
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase (week 2)
- Senior engineers (7+ years experience)
- OpenAPI spec approved before development
- 80%+ test coverage on endpoints
- Automated CI/CD with GitHub Actions
- Auto-generated docs with Swagger
API development process
Our process delivers APIs on time and on budget.
Every project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase. We define API endpoints, data models, and deployment strategy.
Then we build in 2-week sprints. You see working APIs every sprint and provide feedback.
What ships with your API
Every API project includes these deliverables.
You own everything: source code, docs, and infrastructure scripts.
No hidden fees, no licensing costs.
- Source code in your GitHub repo
- OpenAPI/Swagger documentation
- CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions)
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
- Unit and integration tests (80%+ coverage)
- Load testing results
- Deployment to AWS/GCP/Azure
- Monitoring with Datadog / Sentry
- Postman collection for testing
- Incident response runbook

We hire only engineers with 7+ years of experience. No junior developers on your API.
API-first design
We write an OpenAPI specification before writing code. This ensures every endpoint is clear and testable.
80% test coverage
Our CI pipeline enforces unit and integration tests. We maintain 80%+ coverage on all endpoints.
Ships in 8-12 weeks
Most MVPs go from idea to production in 8-12 weeks. We have shipped 200+ products on time (98% on-time).
You own the code
Source code, docs, and infrastructure config are all in your repository. You own everything we build.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
