Software Development Company RaleighRaleigh
IRPR ships custom web apps, mobile apps, and AI tools in 8-12 weeks. Fixed price, senior engineers only, 200+ products delivered across 50+ countries.
IRPR is a Software Development Company Raleigh startups and mid-market firms hire to build products that ship on time. We write backend logic in Node.js and Go, build frontends in React and Next.js, and run workloads on AWS and GCP. Every project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase that produces a fixed quote and a technical spec.
A typical engagement ships a production-ready MVP in 8-12 weeks. Pricing ranges from $80K for a focused single-platform app to $250K for a multi-platform product with compliance requirements. We build to HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 standards when the product handles protected data — common for healthtech and fintech clients in the Research Triangle region.
We work with three types of buyers in Raleigh: funded startup founders who need an MVP to show investors in 3 months, mid-market operations leaders replacing a legacy internal tool with a web app, and healthcare or fintech product managers who require audit-ready compliance from day one.
Types of software we ship.
Web apps built on Next.js
Responsive single-page and multi-page apps with server-side rendering on Vercel or AWS Amplify — ideal for SaaS dashboards and customer portals.
iOS and Android mobile apps
Native builds in Swift and Kotlin, or cross-platform with React Native — real-time sync via Firebase or WebSocket backends for field service and logistics teams.
AI chatbot and workflow agents
LLM-powered agents built on OpenAI or Anthropic with retrieval-augmented generation and tool use — reduces support ticket volume by up to 40% inside 90 days.
SaaS MVP platforms
Multi-tenant SaaS with Stripe billing, role-based access, and usage-based pricing — shipped in 10-12 weeks with a Node.js or Django backend.
Healthcare compliance portals
HIPAA-compliant patient portals and provider dashboards with audit logging on AWS, encrypted PHI storage, and role-based access — meets HITECH requirements.

What a Software Development Company Raleigh project actually looks like
IRPR ships 200+ products using a 3-phase process that trades ambiguity for a fixed price and a locked scope.
The Idea phase (week 1) turns a business case into a product brief and 3-5 user workflows. Every workflow maps to a screen or API endpoint before the Roadmap begins. This eliminates the back-and-forth that kills startup timelines.
The Roadmap phase (week 2) produces a fixed-price quote, a technical spec, and a Sprint plan in Linear. Clients see exactly which features ship in Sprint 1, Sprint 2, and Sprint 3 — no black-box estimates, no open-ended hourly billing.
What separates a dedicated Software Development Company Raleigh from a generic dev shop
Most outsourced dev teams bill by the hour and treat scope creep as revenue. IRPR locks scope and price in week 2.
Generic dev shops staff projects with blended teams of junior and mid-level engineers — the senior architect appears for the pitch call but not during sprints. Code quality drifts, timelines slip, and nothing ships on time.
IRPR runs every project with senior engineers only. The engineer who designs the database schema is the same engineer who writes the API layer and reviews pull requests. This removes handoff latency and cuts defect rates by over 40% compared to blended teams.
- Junior engineers doing architecture work
- Hourly billing with ballooning invoices
- Scope creep treated as added revenue
- No compliance expertise on staff
- Source code delivered with no docs
- Multi-week communication delays
- Senior engineers on every product
- Fixed price locked by week 2
- Scope locked via Sprint breakdowns
- HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2 in-house
- Repo transfer with full README
- Daily Slack or Discord updates, async-first
The 4-step process every Software Development Company Raleigh should follow
IRPR's delivery pipeline removes the guesswork from custom software — 200+ projects prove this sequence works across every industry.
Step 1 begins with a 1-day discovery call where we map user stories to technical constraints. By day 3, a draft product brief is in the client's inbox — no invoice required until the Roadmap begins.
Step 4 ends with a release to production on AWS, GCP, or Vercel, with CI/CD pipelines that auto-deploy on merge to main. Codebase, docs, and cloud account access transfer to the client on day one of the Release phase.
What ships when you hire a Software Development Company Raleigh
Every project from IRPR ships with these 9 deliverables — zero surprises, zero add-on fees.
The source code goes into your GitHub org on day one of the Release phase. We set up the CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions so you can deploy on your own infrastructure without us. Our last 50 projects shipped within 3 days of their target release date.
- Full source code in your GitHub or GitLab org
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions, auto-deploy on merge
- 12-24 months of architecture documentation and README
- Database schema diagram and migration scripts
- Cloud infrastructure as Terraform or Pulumi config
- Sentry error tracking with real-time alerting
- Load test report for 10K concurrent sessions
- OWASP top 10 security review completed
- Seed data scripts for local development environment
- 1-month bug-fix warranty post-launch
What we ship in this practice.

Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly
Every project gets a fixed quote in the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no scope creep charges — 98% of our projects finish on or under budget.
Senior engineers only, no juniors
The average IRPR engineer has 8+ years of production experience. The same person who architects the database writes the API and reviews PRs — cuts defect rates by 40% compared to blended teams.
Compliance from day one
We build to HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 standards when the product handles protected data. Architecture reviews happen in week 1, not as a remediation exercise after launch.
Sprint shipping, not big-bang releases
Every 2-week Sprint produces a working increment deployed to staging. Clients see real progress every 10 business days — no waiting 6 months for a first demo.
Code is yours, always
On day one of the Release phase, the full codebase transfers to your GitHub or GitLab org. CI/CD pipelines are configured in your cloud account — zero vendor lock-in.
Async-first, not meeting-heavy
Daily updates via Slack, weekly async video walkthroughs, and 30-minute live demos every other Friday. Async communication keeps schedules tight and reduces context-switching.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
