API Development

API Development Company Built Around the Contract, Not the Afterthought

As an API development company based in Vadodara, India, and delivering to teams across the UK, South Africa, and Ivory Coast, we treat the API as the contract every other system depends on — not a wrapper bolted onto a finished app. We work design-first, writing and reviewing the OpenAPI spec before a line of implementation exists, so your web frontend, mobile client, and third-party consumers all agree on shape and behaviour before anyone builds against it. Whether the API powers a public product, a partner integration, or the backend for a SaaS platform, we build it versioned, documented, and secure by default.

REST, GraphQL, and real-time — chosen for the job

There is no single correct API style, only the right one for your clients. We reach for REST when you need predictable CRUD resources and clean caching, GraphQL when a data-heavy dashboard or app needs to fetch exactly what it renders, and WebSocket patterns when live data, chat, or collaborative editing demand it. Most products end up needing more than one, which is why our engineers work across Express, Fastify, and NestJS, and lean on our Node.js developers when a build needs deeper backend firepower. The same endpoints feed our mobile app development work, so the client and the API it consumes are designed together rather than stitched up at the end.

Secure, observable, and built to keep its promises

Every endpoint ships with authentication — OAuth 2.0, JWT, or API keys — plus rate limiting, input validation, and CORS configured before launch, not patched in after an incident. Consumer-driven contract tests catch breaking changes before they reach production, and structured logging, tracing, and latency dashboards let you see exactly how each route behaves under load. As your product grows, that discipline scales cleanly into microservices and reaches outward through our API integration practice for payment gateways, CRMs, and ERPs. Tell us what needs to talk to what, and we'll scope your API in a free estimate.

FAQ

API Development FAQ

REST for simple CRUD and mobile APIs. GraphQL when clients need flexible querying or you're building a data-heavy dashboard.
URL versioning (/v1/, /v2/) for public APIs. Header versioning for internal APIs. We document the upgrade path for each version.
Yes — we generate OpenAPI specs from existing codebases using swagger-autogen or manual annotation.
Rate limiting with Redis, API key management, IP allowlisting, and bot detection via middleware.
