API Development
Public and internal APIs designed for reliability, versioning, and the developers who'll depend on them.
Versioned
Built for change without breakage
Documented
OpenAPI specs, not tribal knowledge
Rate-limited
Designed to survive real traffic
Overview
An API is a promise to every system and developer that depends on it. Poorly designed APIs — inconsistent conventions, no versioning strategy, undocumented edge cases — create integration debt that compounds every time a new consumer connects to them.
We design and build REST, GraphQL, and event-driven APIs treated as products in their own right: documented, versioned, rate-limited, and built with the discipline required when other teams — internal or external — are going to depend on them for years.
What We Commonly See
- Undocumented or inconsistent APIs slow down every new integration project.
- Breaking changes to production APIs create downstream outages for partners and internal teams.
- Legacy point-to-point integrations multiply until no one has a clear picture of what talks to what.
What's Included
REST & GraphQL API design
Consistent, well-documented API contracts designed around how consumers actually use them, not just internal data models.
API versioning strategy
Versioning and deprecation policies that let you evolve APIs without breaking existing integrations.
Authentication & authorization
OAuth 2.0, JWT, and API key strategies matched to your security and partner-access requirements.
Event-driven & webhook architecture
Asynchronous, event-driven integration patterns for systems that need real-time data flow, not just request/response.
API gateway & rate limiting
Gateway architecture that protects backend systems from traffic spikes and enforces usage policies.
Developer experience & documentation
OpenAPI specifications, sandbox environments, and documentation that make integration fast for the teams consuming your API.
Our Approach
Define the contract
We design the API contract collaboratively with the teams who will consume it, before implementation begins.
Build with versioning in mind
Every API is built with a versioning and deprecation strategy from day one, not added after the first breaking change.
Secure & document
Authentication, rate limiting, and full OpenAPI documentation ship alongside the API, not as a follow-up task.
Monitor & evolve
We track usage patterns and error rates post-launch to guide how the API evolves without disrupting existing consumers.
Technologies We Use
What You Can Expect
- APIs that new integrations can be built against in days, not weeks of reverse-engineering.
- A versioning strategy that lets you evolve the API without breaking existing partners.
- Reduced support burden from clear documentation and consistent conventions.
- Infrastructure that survives real traffic spikes instead of falling over under load.
Frequently Asked Questions
REST or GraphQL — which do you recommend?
It depends on your consumers. REST tends to fit simpler, resource-oriented integrations and public APIs; GraphQL suits front-ends and partners that need flexible, composable queries. We help you choose based on actual usage patterns, not trend.
Can you build APIs on top of our existing legacy systems?
Yes — this is one of our most common engagements: building a clean, modern API layer in front of legacy systems so new applications don't need to integrate with old infrastructure directly.
How do you handle API security for partner integrations?
We design authentication, authorization, and rate-limiting policies specific to each consumer tier — internal services, trusted partners, and public developers typically need different security postures.
Do you provide ongoing API support after launch?
Most clients keep us engaged for API evolution and support, since API consumers rely on consistent uptime and responsive changes as new integration needs emerge.
