What We Do

An API is the foundation of a modern software product. Whether you're building a mobile app that talks to a backend, integrating your platform with third-party services, or exposing your data to partners, the quality of your API determines the velocity of every team that builds on top of it.

Techifive designs and builds production-ready REST and GraphQL APIs using Node.js and Python, with comprehensive documentation generated via OpenAPI 3.0 and published in developer portals. We implement OAuth 2.0 and JWT authentication, role-based access control, rate limiting, and request signing — security patterns that protect both your platform and your API consumers.

Third-party integration is where API projects most often go wrong: poorly handled webhooks, missing retry logic, and no error recovery cause silent data loss. We build integrations with resilient patterns: idempotent webhook processors with signature verification, exponential backoff retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and reconciliation jobs that catch and correct discrepancies between systems.

Why Choose Techifive for API Development & Integration

OpenAPI Documentation

Auto-generated, interactive API documentation that developers can use to explore and test endpoints without reading source code.

Versioned & Backwards-Compatible

API versioning strategy ensures existing integrations never break when you add new capabilities.

Resilient Webhook Processing

Signature-verified, idempotent webhook handlers with retry queuing and dead-letter recovery for zero data loss.

Rate Limiting & Quotas

Per-client rate limiting with graceful degradation prevents any single consumer from impacting service availability for others.

Our Process

  1. 01

    API Design

    Resource modelling, endpoint specification in OpenAPI, and review with your consuming teams before implementation begins.

  2. 02

    Security Architecture

    Authentication scheme selection, authorisation model, rate limiting configuration, and penetration test scope definition.

  3. 03

    Implementation

    API development with test coverage for every endpoint, integration with your database and external services.

  4. 04

    Documentation & SDK

    Interactive API docs, integration guides, code samples in multiple languages, and optional client SDK generation.

  5. 05

    Load Testing & Launch

    k6 load test to target RPS, fix any performance bottlenecks, then staged production rollout.

Frequently Asked Questions

REST or GraphQL — which should we use?
REST for simple CRUD operations and public-facing APIs where caching matters. GraphQL for complex data requirements with multiple consuming clients (web, mobile, partners) that each need different data shapes.
How do you handle breaking API changes?
We implement URI versioning (/v1/, /v2/) and maintain deprecated versions for a minimum of 12 months with advance notice to API consumers. Non-breaking changes are additive and don't require version bumps.
Can you integrate with any third-party service?
If it has an API, yes. We've integrated with 100+ third-party services. For services with poor documentation or rate limits, we build buffering and retry infrastructure to ensure data integrity.
