Your Experienced REST API Development PartnerREST API
We build production-grade REST APIs that connect your systems. Fixed price, senior engineers, 8-12 week delivery.
IRPR is an experienced REST API development partner. We design and build custom REST APIs using Node.js, Python (FastAPI), Go, and Java Spring Boot. Every API is documented with OpenAPI 3.0 and tested with Postman and Jest.
We ship production-ready REST APIs in 8-12 weeks. Pricing starts at $80K for a standard API and ranges up to $250K for complex integrations with multiple endpoints, authentication, and rate limiting. All projects include CI/CD, monitoring, and full code ownership.
Companies hire us when they need a reliable REST API partner: CTOs at SaaS startups who need to expose core functionality to third-party developers, engineering leads at fintech companies integrating payment gateways, and product managers at healthcare firms building HIPAA-compliant data exchange layers.
Types of software we ship.
REST API for Mobile Backend
A backend API that serves data to iOS and Android apps. Uses PostgreSQL, Redis caching, and JWT authentication.
Third-Party REST API
A public API for external developers. Includes API keys, rate limiting, usage analytics, and versioning with OpenAPI docs.
Internal Microservice REST API
A lightweight API for communication between internal services. Built with Docker, Kubernetes, and gRPC fallback.
Data Aggregation REST API
An API that combines data from multiple sources (CRM, ERP, warehouse). Uses ETL pipelines and GraphQL for flexible queries.
Payment REST API
A PCI-DSS compliant API for processing payments. Integrates with Stripe, Braintree, or Adyen. Handles refunds, subscriptions, and webhooks.
REST API for IoT Devices
An API that ingests sensor data from thousands of devices. Uses MQTT, WebSockets, and TimescaleDB for time-series storage.
CMS REST API
A headless CMS API that serves content to multiple frontends (web, mobile, smart TV). Built on Strapi or Contentful with webhook triggers.
REST API for Machine Learning
An API that exposes ML model predictions via endpoints. Uses FastAPI, TensorFlow Serving, and Kubernetes for auto-scaling.
We build for every business type.
SaaS and platform companies
Healthcare and life sciences
Fintech and financial services
Ecommerce and retail
Logistics and supply chain
Why You Need an Experienced REST API Development Partner
A poorly designed REST API costs you time, money, and developer trust.
Building a REST API that scales requires more than writing endpoints. You need proper authentication (OAuth 2.0, JWT), rate limiting (1000 req/min), versioning (v1, v2), and comprehensive error handling (HTTP 400, 401, 404, 500). IRPR has shipped over 200 production APIs across 50 countries.
Our senior engineers follow REST best practices: HATEOAS, idempotent endpoints, pagination (cursor-based), and caching (Redis, CDN). We document every API with OpenAPI 3.0 and provide a Postman collection for testing. You get a fully functional API that your developers can integrate in hours, not weeks.
The Difference Between a Dev Shop and an Experienced REST API Partner
Most agencies build APIs that break under load. IRPR builds APIs that handle millions of requests.
We see the same problems again and again: no rate limiting, no proper error codes, no versioning, and no monitoring. These shortcuts work for a demo but fail in production. IRPR treats your API as a product, not a one-time task.
Every API we build includes Prometheus metrics, Sentry error tracking, and Grafana dashboards. We set up automated load testing with k6 and enforce a 99.9% uptime SLA. Our APIs are used by companies processing over 1 million requests per day.
- No API versioning strategy
- No rate limiting or throttling
- Minimal error handling (only 200 and 500)
- No monitoring or alerting
- No automated load testing
- No OpenAPI documentation
- Semantic versioning (v1, v2) with deprecation headers
- Rate limiting with Redis and per-user quotas
- Structured error codes (4xx, 5xx) with human-readable messages
- Prometheus + Grafana dashboards and Sentry alerts
- k6 load testing before every release
- OpenAPI 3.0 docs auto-generated from code
Our REST API Development Process
We follow a 4-phase process that delivers a production-ready API in 8-12 weeks.
Phase 1 is the Roadmap. We define endpoints, data models, authentication, and rate limits. You get a fixed price quote at the end of week 2. No surprises.
Phase 2 is the Build. Our senior engineers write the code, write unit tests, and set up CI/CD. You see progress every week via a live demo environment.
What Ships with Every REST API
Every project includes these deliverables by default. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
You get everything you need to maintain and scale your API. Source code, documentation, monitoring, and CI/CD pipeline are included in the fixed price.
- Source code in your GitHub/GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- OpenAPI 3.0 documentation
- Postman collection with example requests
- Unit tests with 90%+ code coverage
- Integration tests for all endpoints
- Docker Compose setup for local development
- Prometheus metrics and Grafana dashboard
- Sentry error tracking integration
- Deployment guide and runbook
