Your FastAPI partner ships in 8-12 weeks with fixed pricing. Senior Python engineers only, not junior contractors.
IRPR is a FastAPI development partner that builds production-grade APIs using Python, FastAPI, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy, and PostgreSQL. We handle async endpoints, background tasks with Celery, and OpenAPI documentation auto-generated from your models.
Every project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price between $80K and $250K. We support HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 compliance. Our CI/CD pipelines run on GitHub Actions with Sentry error tracking and Datadog monitoring.
Founders hire us to build their MVP and raise Series A. CTOs hire us to replace legacy Flask or Django APIs with FastAPI. Product managers hire us to add microservices to existing platforms. Enterprise architects hire us for PCI-DSS compliant payment APIs.

What your FastAPI development partner delivers in 12 weeks
IRPR ships production-ready APIs with code, docs, and infrastructure included.
Your FastAPI partner starts with a two-week Roadmap phase where we map out every endpoint, data model, and third-party integration. We audit your current stack and choose between SQLAlchemy, Tortoise-ORM, or Beanie based on your database - PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or DynamoDB.
After Roadmap approval, we build your API in 6-10 weeks with daily commits, automated tests at 90%+ coverage, and a deployed staging environment on AWS or GCP. You own the code from day one. We hand over the repo, CI/CD pipeline, and monitoring dashboards.
Generic dev shops vs. IRPR as your FastAPI partner
Not all FastAPI developers deliver production-ready APIs with security, scaling, and documentation built in.
Generic agencies write FastAPI endpoints that work locally but fail under load. They skip async patterns, ignore connection pooling, and never set up monitoring. You find out about performance issues when users complain.
IRPR builds FastAPI APIs with async database sessions, Redis caching, Sentry error tracking, and Datadog dashboards from sprint one. We load test every endpoint with Locust before deployment. Your API handles 10,000 concurrent requests without a timeout.
- writes synchronous endpoints
- no connection pooling
- no logging or monitoring
- manual deployment
- no load testing
- code drops without docs
- async endpoints with asyncio
- SQLAlchemy async sessions
- Sentry + Datadog from week 1
- CI/CD on GitHub Actions
- Locust load tests in staging
- OpenAPI docs auto-generated
How IRPR builds your FastAPI project in 4 phases
Every FastAPI engagement follows a repeatable process that eliminates surprises.
Phase 1 is the Roadmap phase (2 weeks, fixed price $5K-$10K). We document every endpoint, model, and integration. You approve before we write a line of production code. No scope creep.
Phase 2 is the Build phase (6-10 weeks). We ship daily commits, weekly demos, and automated tests. Phase 3 is the Release phase (1 week) with Sentry error monitoring, Datadog dashboards, and a deployment runbook. Phase 4 is the Handoff phase with source code, docs, and a 30-day warranty.
What ships with every FastAPI project from IRPR
Every FastAPI API includes the tools and dashboards you need to operate in production.
You get a private GitHub repo with commit history, all environment configuration, and a README that explains how to run locally and deploy. No proprietary tools. No black boxes.
We set up CI/CD on GitHub Actions that runs tests, lints, and deploys to a staging environment on every push. Production deployment is one approval away. Sentry alerts you on 500 errors before your users notice.
- Source code in your private GitHub repo
- Auto-generated OpenAPI (Swagger) docs
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- Sentry error tracking with alerts
- Datadog dashboards for latency and throughput
- Pydantic models with validation
- Async database sessions with SQLAlchemy
- JWT authentication with refresh tokens
- Docker Compose for local development
- Deployment runbook with rollback steps
What we ship in this practice.

Why teams hire us.
Senior Python engineers only
Every FastAPI developer at IRPR has 5+ years of Python experience and has shipped at least 3 FastAPI projects. No junior developers. No outsourced teams. You talk directly to the engineer building your API.
Fixed price from the Roadmap
After the 2-week Roadmap phase, you get a fixed quote for the entire FastAPI build. No hourly billing. No scope creep. No surprise invoices. The price does not change unless you change the scope.
HIPAA and PCI-DSS compliant
We have built FastAPI APIs for healthcare clients that pass HIPAA audits and for fintech clients that pass PCI-DSS Level 4 assessments. We encrypt data at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.3.
Production-ready from sprint one
Every FastAPI project ships with Sentry error tracking, Datadog dashboards, and CI/CD on GitHub Actions from the first sprint. Your staging environment is live in week 3. You see progress daily.
Full code ownership
You own every line of code from day one. No proprietary tools. No license fees. No lock-in. We hand over your private GitHub repo, Docker Compose file, and deployment runbook at the end of every engagement.
