Why it matters.

Most of what makes software useful happens where customers can't see it: taking payments, syncing stock, sending reminders, keeping data safe. When that layer is slow or fragile, everything built on top of it suffers.

We design and build backends that are secure by default, documented so any developer can pick them up, and tested against real traffic before launch. We connect the tools you already use, from Stripe and Xero to your booking or practice system.

Data stays in UK or EU regions unless you tell us otherwise, and we sign a data processing agreement with every client.

What we do.

Everything you need, from the first design to launch and beyond.

REST and GraphQL APIs

Well-designed APIs for your website, apps and partners, with clear documentation.

Payments

Stripe checkouts, subscriptions, deposits and refunds that reconcile cleanly.

Integrations

Connect your CRM, accounting, booking or stock systems so data flows automatically.

Databases

PostgreSQL schemas designed for your data, with backups and migrations handled.

Authentication

Secure sign-in, roles and permissions, including single sign-on for teams.

Background jobs

Emails, reports, reminders and imports that run reliably on a schedule.

What you get.

The difference a senior team makes.

Secure by default

Encrypted data, least-privilege access and dependency checks on every release.

Fast under load

Load-tested before launch, with caching where it counts.

Properly documented

Every endpoint documented, so your team or another agency can build on it.

Easy to extend

Clear structure and tests make new features quicker and safer to add.

Ordering and live rider tracking for 14 London restaurants

The challenge

Orders came in by phone and three different delivery apps, each taking up to 30% commission and none sharing customer data.

What we built

A branded iOS and Android app with live rider tracking, a kitchen dashboard and Stripe payments, backed by a Node.js API on AWS London.

“They rebuilt our ordering in twelve weeks and it simply works. Customers noticed the difference in the first week.”

Can you work with our existing frontend or app?

Yes. We regularly build APIs for websites and mobile apps made by other teams, and agree the API contract with them first so nobody is waiting.

Which payment providers do you support?

Mostly Stripe, which covers cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, subscriptions and deposits. We've also integrated GoCardless, PayPal and Adyen.

How do you keep data secure?

Encryption in transit and at rest, least-privilege access, audited dependencies and regular backups. We host personal data in UK or EU regions and sign a data processing agreement.

Will we get documentation?

Yes. Every endpoint is documented with examples, and the code, database and infrastructure are handed over in your own accounts.

Can you take over an API someone else built?

Yes. We start with a fixed-price audit so you know what you have, what needs fixing and what it will cost before we change anything.

“Deadlines met, weekly demos and zero surprises on the invoice.”
