REST and GraphQL APIs built OpenAPI-first. JWT or OAuth auth, rate limiting, request validation, Sentry monitoring, OpenTelemetry tracing. Documentation is generated from the spec, not the other way around.
What an API costs at NedDev depends on its size, from a single REST endpoint to a full GraphQL stack with federated services. After a short intake the price is fixed. We work OpenAPI-first, ship auto-generated SDK clients in TypeScript and Python, and monitor every endpoint from launch via Sentry and custom dashboards. An MVP goes live in 2-4 weeks.
API development is the right choice when you need your own backend for mobile apps, headless architectures, B2B integrations, or a public API as a product layer. Built with Laravel or FastAPI, GraphQL, and OpenAPI 3.1.
Our internal stack packages for multi-tenant SaaS. A Laravel + Filament starter, an audit-trail engine, and a tenant-impersonation package that runs across 12 clients.

14 EXPERIMENTS · LIVE DEMOSREST for public APIs with simple resources and wide tooling. GraphQL for frontends that combine a lot of different data or for mobile apps that want to avoid over-fetching. NedDev builds both and can also combine them via an Apollo layer.
A single-resource REST endpoint is the smallest project; a full business API with authentication and payments clearly takes more, and a federated GraphQL architecture with multiple microservices the most. The price scales with the number of resources, the security requirements (JWT or OAuth) and the number of integrations. After a short intake you get a fixed price.
By default you get JWT or OAuth 2.0, rate limiting per IP and per token, request validation via JSON schema, a CORS policy, security headers, and SQL-injection protection via prepared statements. Third-party pen testing is available on request.
