Backend and API development
For teams who already have an app or site, or are about to, and need the server side behind it: the API, the data, and where it runs.
Book a callWhat you get
- A Python FastAPI service with documented endpoints. FastAPI writes the interactive docs from the code, so a front-end developer can read them.
- The code and a short handover note.
How it works
- 1
Call
You tell us what the app or site needs to store, and who is allowed to see it.
- 2
Plan
We write the endpoints, and what the first version will not do.
- 3
Build
You can call the API from the docs page while it's being built.
- 4
Launch
We put the service where it will run and hand over the code.
Stack
FastAPI. The interactive docs come from the code, so the person building the screens can see every endpoint.
Python. It's readable by the next developer, which matters more than picking a new framework.
Questions
How much does it cost to build a backend?
It depends on the number of screens and what has to happen behind them. We don't publish a price list. Tell us what you're building and we'll price that scope in writing.
How long does it take?
We don't publish a standard number of weeks. Smaller first versions ship sooner, and we'll usually suggest one. You get a date once the scope is written down.
Who owns the code when the project ends?
Who holds the repo is written into the agreement before work starts. Ask in your message if the code needs to sit in your name.
What happens after launch? Do you fix bugs and keep it updated?
Fixes and updates after launch are written into the scope before we start. Tell us what you need looked after and we'll include it. We don't advertise a fixed support window on this page.
Will you sign an NDA?
If you need an NDA, say so in your message before you share anything private.
Can you fix or finish a project someone else started?
Send what exists, or describe where it stopped. We'll read it and tell you whether finishing it or rebuilding a piece is the sensible path.
Can you build the API for my existing app or website?
Tell us what the app or site needs from a server, and what it talks to today. We'll say whether a FastAPI service fits before any work starts.
