API Development and Integration

Robust RESTful and GraphQL APIs, third-party integrations, and legacy system modernisation. We make your software talk to everything it needs to.

Modern businesses run on interconnected systems. We design and build APIs that are reliable, well-documented, and built to last — and we integrate the third-party services your product depends on without creating fragile coupling.

Architecture varies per project — this represents our standard production pattern for this service.

Our Process

01

API Design

OpenAPI specification reviewed and approved before implementation. Contract-first development.

02

Integration Mapping

Third-party API analysis, authentication flows, rate limit strategy, and error handling documented.

03

Implementation

Typed SDK generation, retry logic, circuit breakers, and idempotency keys built by default.

04

Documentation

Interactive docs with Swagger UI, webhook event catalogue, and integration guides for your team.

Why clients choose us

  • End-to-end ownership — no agency hand-offs
  • Architecture documented before any code is written
  • Tests written alongside features, not as an afterthought
  • Fixed-price phases with clear deliverables

API Design and Development

RESTful APIs

Resource-oriented REST APIs with consistent naming conventions, proper HTTP semantics, versioning strategies, and OpenAPI documentation. We design for developer experience as well as functionality.

GraphQL APIs

Schema-first GraphQL APIs with efficient resolvers, dataloader batching to prevent N+1 queries, and subscription support for real-time features. We build GraphQL that performs under load.

Webhooks and Event Systems

Reliable webhook delivery with retry logic, signature verification, and idempotency handling. We design event-driven architectures that decouple your services without introducing data loss risks.

Third-Party Integrations

Payment Systems

Stripe, PayPal, Adyen — we implement payment flows correctly including 3D Secure, webhook handling, refund logic, and dispute management. No payment integration is simple; we have done them at scale.

CRM and Marketing Platforms

Salesforce, HubSpot, Mailchimp, and custom CRM integrations. We build bidirectional sync pipelines that keep your systems consistent without manual intervention.

Communication Platforms

Twilio, SendGrid, and push notification services integrated with proper fallback logic, rate limiting, and delivery tracking.

Data Platforms

Data warehouse integrations with Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift. ETL pipelines that move data reliably without data loss or duplication.

Legacy System Modernisation

We wrap legacy systems with modern API layers, gradually migrating functionality to new services using the strangler fig pattern. Your team keeps shipping while the migration proceeds in the background.

API Security

Rate limiting, API key management, OAuth 2.0 token validation, and input sanitisation on every endpoint. We implement API gateways where appropriate to centralise cross-cutting concerns.
