Emicode builds and integrates web APIs for Canadian and US businesses from $3,000 CAD — a fixed quote after discovery, not an hourly meter. We connect your website and systems to CRMs, payment processors, accounting tools, and mobile apps. Every integration is documented and access-controlled, and the architecture is sized for the traffic you actually expect. We're a Winnipeg web development studio, and a senior engineer designs the integration, so it survives production and not just the demo.

Who Web API Development Is For

API work is for businesses whose systems need to talk to each other and currently don't. It fits you if you:

  • Run separate tools — CRM, accounting, payments, inventory — that don't sync
  • Are building a mobile app or partner platform that needs a backend behind it
  • Want a custom API exposed to clients, partners, or your own front end
  • Move data between systems by hand when a machine should be doing it
  • Need something documented and maintainable, not a brittle one-off script that breaks when someone updates a field

What's Included

  • Custom API design and development, or integration with an existing third-party API
  • Authentication and access control matched to how sensitive the data is
  • Documentation your team — or the next developer — can actually work from
  • Error handling and monitoring, so a failure shows up loudly instead of going quiet
  • An architecture sized to handle high request volume without falling over
  • Integration testing against real endpoints before anything ships

How the Process Works

  1. Discovery (1–2 weeks). We map the systems, data flows, and endpoints, then hand you a written brief and a fixed quote.
  2. Design (about 1 week). API contract and integration architecture, reviewed and signed off before anyone writes build code.
  3. Build (2–5 weeks). Development against a staging environment, with documentation written next to the code instead of after it.
  4. Launch (2–4 days). Integration testing, security review, monitoring, cutover.
  5. Warranty (30 days). Any bug we ship, we fix, free.

What Drives the Price

Web API development starts at $3,000 CAD, fixed after discovery. 

What moves the number: how many systems you're connecting, whether we're building a custom API or wiring into one that already exists, how much the authentication and security need to lock down, the request volume you're planning for, and how deep the documentation has to go. 

FAQ

Can you integrate with a system we already use?
Usually, yes. If the system exposes an API or supported integration method, we can connect to it. We confirm feasibility during discovery before committing to a quote.

Will the API be documented?
Yes. Full documentation is part of every API project, so your team or any future developer can work with the integration without reverse-engineering it.

Can the API handle high request volume?
Yes — scalability is designed in from the start. We architect integrations to handle high throughput and confirm the expected volume with you during discovery.
