Services

Systems that scale and don't fall over.

Scalable backends, APIs and integrations engineered for load, resilience and clarity.

What backend & apis looks like with us

The backend is where most projects quietly succeed or fail. We build APIs and services that stay up under load, handle failure gracefully, and stay clear enough that the next engineer can reason about them.

REST or GraphQL, monolith or microservices — we pick the shape that fits your problem and your team, and we instrument it so you can see exactly what's happening in production.

  • REST / GraphQL
  • Microservices
  • Event-driven systems
  • Databases
  • Third-party integrations
  • Observability
routes/orders.ts
app.post("/orders", async (req, res) => {
  const order = await db.orders.create(req.body);
  // fan out without blocking the response
  await queue.publish("order.created", order.id);
  res.status(201).json(order);
});

FAQs

Common questions

  • It depends on scope — most projects start with a short paid discovery so you get a firm estimate before committing. Book a call and we'll give you a realistic range.
  • Small projects ship in weeks; larger platforms over several months. We work in short increments so you see progress from the start.
  • Yes, we sign NDAs, and you own all the IP and code we produce for you. That's non-negotiable on our side.
  • Data protection is built into how we work — UK GDPR by design, secure-by-design engineering and accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA. We're working towards ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials certification, and we're happy to complete your security questionnaires.
