Backend & API

A website connected to an API, authentication, and a database.

The engine room, built right.

We build the server side your app deserves: clean APIs, reliable databases, and integrations that don't break at 2 a.m. You get documentation, typed contracts, and a system any future developer can pick up.

The backend manages the rules and data behind your application: who can access a record, how information is validated, and how systems communicate. We map these requirements with your team, review existing services, and define the data model and API contracts before implementation. This makes responsibilities clear for frontend developers and integration partners.

The agreed implementation covers endpoints, authentication and authorization, validation, error responses, and relevant automated checks. Integrations include handling failed requests and safe retries where appropriate. Delivery includes API documentation, configuration guidance, and a handover; infrastructure costs, third-party limits, and ongoing operational support are confirmed in the scope.

Built around your problems

Every line item below exists because a client once paid the price of not having it.

APIs that just work

REST endpoints with clear contracts and typed responses. Your frontend team integrates in hours, not days of guessing.

Data you can trust

Proper schema design, migrations and backups on PostgreSQL. No 'spreadsheet-in-a-database' horror six months in.

Everything connected

Stripe, email, auth, third-party tools, wired and tested, with retries for when networks misbehave.

Secure by default

Input validation, rate limiting, and sane secrets handling: the checklist most projects skip until it's too late.

Documented for the next dev

Every endpoint documented with request examples. Hand the project to anyone, at any time, without a brain-dump call.

Watched after launch

Logging and error alerts included, so issues surface on our dashboard before your users find them.

Questions clients ask

Can you work with our existing codebase?

Usually, yes. We start with a short audit of what's there, tell you honestly what can be kept versus rebuilt, and quote based on that reality, not a guess.

REST or GraphQL?

REST for most products; it's simpler, cacheable, and every developer knows it. If you have a genuine multi-client query-heavy product, we'll discuss GraphQL with the tradeoffs on the table.

Do you handle deployment too?

Yes. We deploy to Vercel, Railway or your own cloud, set up environment variables, and leave you a doc that explains how to ship a change.

What about authentication?

Covered. Session or token-based auth, OAuth providers, roles and permissions; we'll recommend the simplest option that meets your security needs.
