Our fixed price model means you know the cost before we start. No hourly billing surprises. A typical Node.js backend costs $80,000 to $250,000 and ships in 8-12 weeks. We also offer a 12-month support SLA after launch.
Generic dev shops vs IRPR: the affordable node.js backend development vendor difference
Not all Node.js backend vendors deliver the same value. Here is how we compare.
Generic dev shops sell you hourly rates and hope the project takes longer. They use junior developers, copy-paste code, and leave you with technical debt. You pay for their learning curve.
IRPR assigns senior engineers only. We write tests, set up CI/CD, and deploy to AWS or GCP. You get the source code, documentation, and a 30-day warranty on bugs. No surprises.
- Hourly billing that rewards slow work
- Junior developers learning on your project
- No automated tests or CI/CD
- Code owned by the agency
- No compliance expertise (HIPAA, PCI, SOC 2)
- No post-launch support included
- Fixed price quoted in week 2
- Senior engineers with 10+ years experience
- 100% test coverage and GitHub Actions CI/CD
- Full source code ownership
- HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2 compliance built in
- 12-month support SLA available
Our process for building your affordable Node.js backend
We follow a 4-phase process that keeps your project on time and on budget.
Phase 1 is the Idea phase where we map your requirements. Phase 2 is the Roadmap phase where we define the architecture and give you a fixed price. Phase 3 is the Product phase where we build and test. Phase 4 is the Release phase where we deploy and monitor.
You get weekly demos, a shared Slack channel, and a project dashboard. No black box development.
