Why choose IRPR as your affordable backend app development agency
We deliver production-ready backends on time and on budget.
IRPR has shipped over 200 backend projects across 50 countries. Our senior engineers average 10+ years of experience. We use proven stacks like Node.js, PostgreSQL, and AWS to keep costs low and reliability high.
Every project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase where we define the architecture, database schema, and API contracts. You get a fixed price quote before any development begins. No surprises, no hourly billing.
The difference between IRPR and other backend shops
Most agencies charge by the hour and deliver late. We do the opposite.
Generic dev shops often use junior developers, change requirements mid-project, and bill you for every extra hour. The result is a bloated budget and a backend that doesn't scale.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only. We lock scope in the Roadmap phase and give you a fixed price. Our backends are built with testing, monitoring, and CI/CD from day one.
- Junior developers learning on your project
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Scope changes every week
- No automated tests
- Deployment manual and slow
- No monitoring or alerting
- Senior engineers with 10+ years experience
- Fixed price from Roadmap phase
- Scope locked in week 2
- Tests written before code
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions
- Sentry and Datadog monitoring included
How we build your backend in 8-12 weeks
Our process removes guesswork and delivers a production-ready backend on a fixed timeline.
We follow a 4-phase process: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release. Each phase has clear deliverables and a go/no-go decision point.
The Roadmap phase (week 2) produces a full technical specification, database schema, API design, and a fixed price quote. The Product phase (weeks 3-10) is where we write all code. The Release phase (weeks 11-12) includes load testing, security audit, and deployment.
What ships with every backend project
You own everything. No black boxes, no vendor lock-in.
When we finish your project, you get full ownership of the code, infrastructure, and documentation. You can take it to any internal team or another agency.
We also set up monitoring, error tracking, and a CI/CD pipeline so your backend stays healthy after launch.
- Source code in your GitHub or GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Dockerized development and production environments
- Automated test suite (unit + integration + e2e)
- API documentation with Swagger or Postman
- Sentry error tracking
- Datadog or CloudWatch monitoring dashboards
- Deployment playbook (1-page runbook)
- Security audit report (OWASP top 10)
- Load test results (k6 or Artillery)

Our team averages 10+ years of experience. No junior developers learning on your project. Every engineer has shipped production backends at scale.
8-12 week delivery
We ship most backends in 8-12 weeks. Our process is optimized for speed without cutting corners. 98% of our projects finish on time.
Full code ownership
You own all source code, infrastructure scripts, and documentation. No proprietary frameworks, no lock-in. You can take your backend anywhere.
Built-in compliance
We build backends that pass HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 audits. Our engineers know encryption, access control, and audit logging requirements.
Production-ready from day one
Every backend ships with CI/CD, monitoring, error tracking, and automated tests. Your backend is production-ready on launch day, not a prototype.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
