API & Backend Development

APIs and backends that don't break.

The invisible architecture that powers everything. We build APIs, backend services, and data pipelines with Node.js, TypeScript, and PostgreSQL — designed for reliability, speed, and maintainability.

What We Build

Backend systems for every layer.

REST & GraphQL APIs

Well-documented, versioned APIs with proper authentication, rate limiting, pagination, and error handling. Designed for consumption by web, mobile, and third-party clients.

Database Architecture

PostgreSQL schema design, migrations, indexing, and query optimization. Proper normalization for complex data relationships. Read replicas for scale.

Third-Party Integrations

Payment gateways, CRMs, ERPs, shipping APIs, email providers, and any system with an API. We handle authentication, error recovery, and data mapping.

Background Jobs & Queues

Email sending, report generation, data processing, and long-running tasks. BullMQ, Redis-backed queues with retry logic and dead letter handling.

Webhook Infrastructure

Receive, validate, and process webhooks from any service. Idempotent processing, retry queues, and event logging for reliable event-driven architecture.

Authentication & Authorization

JWT, OAuth 2.0, SSO, API keys, and role-based access control. Multi-tenant isolation, audit logging, and security best practices baked in.

Our Backend Stack

Proven tools for production systems.

Runtime

Node.js with TypeScript strict mode. Type-safe from request to response.

Database

PostgreSQL for relational data. Redis for caching, sessions, and queues.

ORM

Prisma or Drizzle for type-safe database access with migrations and introspection.

API Layer

tRPC for type-safe APIs. REST with OpenAPI spec. GraphQL when needed.

Auth

Clerk, NextAuth, custom JWT. OAuth 2.0, RBAC, multi-tenant isolation.

Queue

BullMQ with Redis. Retry logic, dead letter queues, priority scheduling.

Infra

Docker, AWS/Vercel, GitHub Actions. Auto-scaling, health checks, blue-green deploys.

Monitoring

Sentry for errors. Datadog or custom metrics. Uptime monitoring. Log aggregation.

Frequently Asked

How much does API or backend development cost?

A standalone REST/GraphQL API for a typical product runs ₹3L–₹10L depending on the number of endpoints, integrations, and auth complexity. A full backend with database design, queues, and third-party integrations is usually ₹8L–₹25L. We scope it precisely on a free call before quoting.

Can you build an API for an existing frontend or mobile app?

Yes — this is common. We design the API contract around what your client apps need, document it (OpenAPI/GraphQL schema), and deliver it with auth, rate limiting, and versioning so your frontend and mobile teams can integrate cleanly.

Do you work with our existing database and infrastructure?

We can. We'll audit your current schema, queries, and hosting first, then either build on top of it or recommend targeted changes. We won't force a rewrite if your foundation is sound.

How do you handle third-party integrations like payments or CRMs?

We build integrations with proper error recovery, idempotent processing, and retry queues so a flaky third-party API never corrupts your data or loses an event. Payment gateways, ERPs, shipping, email — if it has an API, we can integrate it.

Will the backend scale as we grow?

We design for it from day one — proper indexing, read replicas where needed, background queues for heavy work, and caching with Redis. We also add monitoring and error tracking so you see problems before your users do.

Need a solid backend?

Whether it's a new API, a system integration, or replacing a fragile backend — let's talk about the right architecture.
