Backend development that keeps the working parts connected.

Accounts, data, payments and integrations need to work together behind a good interface. We build APIs and backend services around your product, with explicit access rules and a structure your team can maintain.

Start with what needs to work.

A prototype can hide important decisions about permissions, data ownership and what happens when a service fails. We make those decisions visible before adding features, whether the backend is new or already supports a live product.

Talk through your brief

What we can help with.

These are the building blocks. We agree the deliverables and review rounds around your brief, so the scope is clear before work starts.

The right information, in the right hands.

Connect your app to structured data through carefully defined API access.

Illustrative service example

Data model and API design

We define the records, relationships and endpoints the product needs. Validation and clear API contracts help the interface and backend evolve without relying on undocumented assumptions.

Authentication and permissions

Roles and access checks are designed around what each person should be able to do. We test restrictions on the server, rather than relying on hidden interface controls.

Service integrations

Payments, notifications and approved third-party tools are connected with error handling. Retries and duplicate events are considered for workflows where processing the same action twice would cause problems.

Operational handover

The scope includes agreed deployment notes, logs and recovery steps. Monitoring, backups and response commitments are defined for the actual environment, not described as a blanket guarantee.

From a clear brief to a useful handover.

Bring the current architecture, data model and key user journeys. We agree the data handled, hosting responsibilities and any security review required before selecting the implementation approach.

  1. Define the job

    We agree the audience, page journeys and what a useful launch looks like. Content, integrations and editing needs inform the platform, rather than the other way around.

  2. Design and build

    You review the work in a shared design file and on a working preview. Components, real content and responsive behaviour are developed together, not left until the end.

  3. Test and hand over

    We check the agreed journeys, devices and integrations before release. Your team gets the documentation and editing walkthrough needed to own the site afterwards.

Before we get started.

Do you build with Xano or custom code?

Either can be appropriate. We assess the product, integrations, team and operational needs first. If Xano fits, we can use it; if the requirements need custom services, we scope those directly.

Does this include a security audit?

Development includes the agreed security controls and checks. An independent penetration test, compliance assessment or formal security audit needs a separate scope and, where appropriate, a specialist reviewer.

Can you connect to an existing frontend?

Yes. We agree the interface contract and test the important journeys together. Existing code and infrastructure are reviewed before promising compatibility or a fixed delivery estimate.
