Why choose an affordable backend development studio?
Because your budget should go into working code, not agency overhead.
IRPR operates with a lean team of senior engineers only. We skip project managers, sales layers, and expensive recruiters. That lets us deliver production backend systems for 40-60% less than traditional agencies.
Every project gets a fixed price after a 2-week Roadmap phase. You know the cost before any development starts. The average backend project runs $80K-$250K, with delivery in 8-12 weeks.
Generic dev shops vs. an affordable backend studio
Not all backend development firms work the same way. Here is what you get from IRPR.
The market is full of agencies that charge hourly, swap junior developers, and own your code. Our model eliminates those risks.

- Hourly billing with no cap
- Junior developers assigned to your project
- Code stays with the agency

- 6-9 month delivery on average
- Unclear requirements until after first invoice
- Fixed price from $80K - no surprises
- Senior engineers only, average 10+ years experience
- Full source code in your GitHub repo
- Built-in SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS compliance
- 8-12 week delivery on every project
- 2-week Roadmap phase defines exact scope
Our process for building your backend
Four phases from idea to production. No ambiguity.
We follow the same framework for every project: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release.
Each phase has a fixed duration and deliverable. You stay in control of the timeline and budget.

Every project includes the same set of deliverables. No hidden extras.
We configure everything for scale and security before handover.

- CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions
- Dockerized services with Docker Compose
- API documentation (OpenAPI 3.0)
- PostgreSQL database schema and migration scripts
- Sentry error tracking and performance monitoring
- Deployment scripts for AWS EC2 / Lambda / ECS
- Unit tests with 80%+ coverage (Jest or pytest)
- HTTPS with Let's Encrypt certificates
