Why choose an affordable Node.js app development company
Cost matters, but so does quality. Here is what we deliver.
IRPR has shipped over 200 Node.js applications across 50 countries. Our fixed-price model means you know the cost upfront, no surprises. A typical backend MVP costs $80K to $250K and ships in 12 weeks.
We use senior engineers only, each with 5+ years of Node.js experience. Our code is clean, tested, and deployable on day one. We integrate with Stripe, AWS, and PostgreSQL out of the box.
How we differ from generic Node.js shops
Most agencies overpromise and underdeliver. We do the opposite.
Generic dev shops often use junior developers, bill hourly, and deliver late. They hide scope creep in vague contracts. You end up with unfinished code and no ownership.
IRPR gives you a fixed price after a 2-week Roadmap phase. You get senior engineers, weekly demos, and full source code. No hidden fees, no surprises.
- Junior developers with 1-2 years experience
- Hourly billing with no cap
- Vague requirements, scope creep common
- No compliance expertise
- Code ownership unclear
- Long delays, poor communication
- Senior engineers with 5+ years Node.js
- Fixed price after Roadmap phase
- Clear scope, change control process
- HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI-DSS ready
- Full code ownership from day one
- Weekly demos, Slack, 12-week delivery
Our process for building affordable Node.js apps
We follow a proven 4-phase framework: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release.
Phase 1 (Idea): We clarify your vision in a 1-week discovery sprint. You get a clear product brief and technical feasibility report.
Phase 2 (Roadmap): In week 2 we produce a detailed roadmap with wireframes, user stories, architecture, and a fixed price proposal. No commitment to continue.
What ships with every Node.js app
Every project includes these deliverables by default.
We don't just hand over code. You get a production-ready system, monitoring, and documentation. Everything you need to run and grow your app.
- Source code in your GitHub/GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Sentry error tracking and performance monitoring
- Swagger/OpenAPI documentation for all endpoints
- PostgreSQL database schema and migrations
- Stripe or payment gateway integration (if needed)
- Docker containerization and docker-compose setup
- AWS or cloud deployment scripts (Terraform or CloudFormation)
- Unit and integration tests with Jest or Mocha
- Admin dashboard for basic CRUD operations

Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote after the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges. You know the cost before we write a line of code.

12-week delivery guarantee
We structure every project to ship in 8-12 weeks. Our process is optimized for speed without sacrificing quality. 98% of our projects deliver on time.
Full code ownership
You own everything we build. Source code, documentation, Docker images, and deployment scripts. No licensing fees, no vendor lock-in.
Compliance expertise built in
We have shipped HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and FERPA compliant Node.js apps. Our engineers know how to handle PHI, PII, and payment data securely.
Async-first communication
Our team works across time zones but overlaps with US hours (9am-1pm ET daily). We use Slack, Linear, and weekly demos to keep you in the loop.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
