Affordable Node.js App Development StudioApp Development
We build your Node.js app in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price. No hidden costs, no scope creep.
IRPR builds affordable Node.js applications using Express.js, Nest.js, and TypeScript. We focus on server-side APIs, microservices, and real-time backends that scale without expensive infrastructure.
Every Node.js project ships in 8-12 weeks with a fixed price of $80K-$150K. Our team handles compliance (SOC 2, PCI-DSS), CI/CD pipelines, and production deployment on AWS or GCP.
Startup founders hire us to validate their MVP under $150K. Product managers come to us when they need a working backend in 10 weeks. Enterprise teams use us to build internal tools and B2B APIs without hiring a full in-house team.

Why an affordable Node.js app development studio makes sense
You get senior Node.js engineers without the hourly billing headache.
We ship complete Node.js applications in 8-12 weeks at a fixed price. Our team has built over 200 products across 50 countries, with a 98% on-time delivery rate. Each project includes CI/CD, monitoring, and full code ownership.
Affordable doesn't mean cheap. It means predictable cost and timeline. You pay once, you get a production-ready backend with Express.js, PostgreSQL, and Redis. No surprise invoices, no hidden fees.
Affordable Node.js app development vs generic dev shops
Not all studios deliver the same quality. Here is how we differ.
Generic dev shops often start hourly at $100-$250 per hour with no fixed scope. You pay for meetings, rework, and delays. IRPR gives you a fixed price after a 2-week Roadmap phase. You know the cost before the build starts.
Our engineers average 10+ years in production Node.js. We use Express.js, Nest.js, TypeScript, and PostgreSQL by default. Every project includes automated testing, code reviews, and a staging environment.
- Hourly billing - cost uncertain
- No fixed timeline
- Junior developers on your project
- Scope creep drives price up
- You get code, no docs or infra
- Vague project handoff
- Fixed price after Roadmap phase
- 8-12 week delivery guarantee
- Senior engineers (10+ years avg)
- No scope creep - scope locked
- Full ownership: code, CI/CD, monitoring
- Clear sprint demos every 2 weeks
How IRPR builds your affordable Node.js app
A structured process from idea to production release.
We start with a 2-week Roadmap phase. You pay a flat $5,000 and get a detailed plan: database schema, API endpoints, user flows, and a fixed price for the full build.
The build phase runs in 2-week sprints. You see progress every sprint, test in staging, and give feedback. We deploy to production on AWS or GCP with automated CI/CD.
What ships by default with every affordable Node.js app project
No additional fees for essential production tooling.
Every Node.js project at IRPR includes a complete production setup. You don't pay extra for CI/CD, monitoring, or documentation. Everything is included in the fixed price.
You get a clean GitHub repository with pull request templates, a CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions, and environment variables for dev/staging/prod. We also configure Sentry error tracking and Datadog performance monitoring.
- Source code in your GitHub repo
- CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions)
- Staging and production environments on AWS
- Sentry error tracking
- Datadog performance monitoring
- PostgreSQL database with migrations
- REST API documentation (Swagger/OpenAPI)
- Automated unit and integration tests
- Environment configuration (dotenv)
- 1-month post-launch support

8-12 week MVP guarantee
We deliver a working application with core features in 8-12 weeks. 98% of our projects finish on time. If we are late, we discount the remaining sprints.
Full code ownership
You own 100% of the source code, IP, and infrastructure. We never license or retain rights. The code is in your GitHub repository from day one.
Async-first collaboration
We communicate via GitHub, Slack, and Notion. Daily standups are written. Weekly demos are recorded. You get transparent updates without time zone friction.
Compliance ready
