Our Offerings

API Development Services We Provide

01

RESTful API Development

Production-grade REST APIs in Node.js, Python, and .NET with OpenAPI 3.0 specs, versioning, and consistent error contracts. Every endpoint ships with automated tests and p95 latency targets under 200ms.

02

GraphQL API Development

Apollo and Relay-compatible GraphQL layers that let front-end teams fetch exactly the data they need in one round trip. We implement persisted queries, dataloader batching, and depth limiting to keep performance predictable.

03

Third-Party API Integration

We connect your systems to Stripe, Salesforce, QuickBooks, Twilio, shipping carriers, and 200+ other services with retry logic and webhook handling. Integrations include sandbox testing and monitoring so failures never go unnoticed.

04

API Gateway & Microservices

Kong, AWS API Gateway, and Azure APIM setups with rate limiting, authentication, and request transformation at the edge. We decompose monoliths into microservices incrementally, without big-bang rewrites.

05

API Security & Compliance

OAuth 2.0, JWT, mTLS, and scope-based authorization implemented to OWASP API Security Top 10 standards. For regulated clients we deliver HIPAA-compliant and PCI DSS-aligned API architectures with full audit logging.

06

API Documentation & Developer Portals

Interactive Swagger/Redoc documentation, Postman collections, and self-serve developer portals with API key management. Good docs cut partner onboarding from weeks to days.

★★★★★
“Devlex rebuilt our patient scheduling platform from a legacy PHP system into a HIPAA-compliant React and Node.js application. No-show rates dropped 27% within three months of launch, and their team caught compliance gaps our own auditors had missed.”
DK Daniel K.CEO, MedBridge Health · USA Healthcare Software Development
★★★★★
“They delivered our Flutter app for iOS and Android in 14 weeks, exactly on the quoted budget. App Store rating sits at 4.8 and the weekly sprint demos meant there was never a single surprise.”
SH Sophie H.Founder, Kerbside Deliveries · UK Mobile App Development
★★★★★
“We hired a dedicated team of five from Devlex to build our property management portal, and eighteen months later they still feel like our own employees. Releases ship every two weeks and platform uptime has held at 99.95%.”

FAQ

API Development — FAQs

Everything you need to know before starting your project. Still have questions? Talk to our team.

REST, GraphQL, gRPC, and WebSocket APIs for mobile backends, partner integrations, internal microservices, and public developer platforms. We also build webhook systems and event-driven architectures on Kafka and AWS SQS/SNS.

A focused integration (connecting two systems) takes 2-4 weeks; a full custom API backend for a mobile or web product takes 2-4 months. Public APIs with developer portals and documentation typically run 3-5 months.

Single integrations start around $5,000-$12,000, custom API backends range $20,000-$60,000, and enterprise API platforms with gateways and portals run $60,000+. Hourly work starts at $18/hour for ongoing integration support.

You receive full ownership of all source code, OpenAPI specifications, infrastructure scripts, and documentation on final payment. Everything is delivered in your own Git and cloud accounts from day one if you prefer.

We instrument every API with monitoring (Datadog, CloudWatch, or Grafana), set alerting on error rates and latency, and offer 24/7 support with SLAs. Versioning policies ensure existing consumers never break when we ship new capabilities.

Yes — we design for horizontal scaling with load balancing, Redis caching, and database read replicas, and validate with load tests at 5-10x expected peak. Our APIs in production handle from a few thousand to 50 million+ requests per day.
