What it involves

What API Development actually delivers

API Development means designing and building the interfaces that let your systems, partners and apps exchange data reliably.

For French teams that matters because teams are often split between a head office and regional sites, so processes that live in one person's head or one person's inbox are a genuine business risk. We build for French businesses exposing data to partners, marketplaces or their own mobile apps, and we say no when a packaged product would do the job better than a custom build.

We work in Node.js, Python FastAPI, .NET, PostgreSQL, Redis, API gateways on AWS and Azure, chosen because they are maintainable and widely supported, so you are never locked to us by an exotic technology choice.

Across France

API Development across France

We deliver API development for clients in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Lille, Bordeaux, Nantes and Rennes. Projects run remotely on French working hours with on-site workshops in Paris, Lyon and Marseille where discovery or training justifies it.

France runs on trading, contracting, logistics, hospitality and professional services, and almost all of it on lean teams that cannot afford software nobody uses. Whatever the sector, the failure mode is the same: software built without the people who use it, and abandoned within a year. Discovery is where we prevent that.

Most clients look at these next: API Development in Paris, Ecommerce Development in France and Marketplace Platform Development in France.

Building in France

Getting API Development right in France

Software for French businesses has to handle TVA, e-invoicing, the French language and GDPR from the first release. This is how we approach API Development.

TVA and e-invoicing by design

Anything that bills applies the right TVA rate, carries the mandatory invoice mentions and can produce Factur-X for exchange through an approved platform.

French and English

Interfaces, documents and notifications work in French and English, with French by default for users in France.

Hosting in the EU

Hosting in an EU cloud region, often in France, where your customers or sector expect it, documented with access and retention.

GDPR and the CNIL

Consent, cookie rules, access requests, breach records and impact assessments are designed in, not bolted on.

What we deliver

How a API development project runs

Five stages, a prototype before the build commitment, and a fixed price in EUR agreed up front.

01

Discovery and scope

Workshops with the people who will use it, a written scope and a fixed price in EUR before anything is built.

02

Prototype before build

A clickable prototype you review and change cheaply, so disagreements happen in Figma rather than in code.

03

Build in two-week increments

Working software you can see and use every fortnight, with priorities you can change between increments.

04

Testing and UAT

Automated tests on the paths that matter plus scripted UAT on your own scenarios before release.

05

Launch, handover and support

Deployment into your own cloud account, documentation, training and an optional support retainer on French working hours.

FAQ

API Development France: questions answered

Can API Development produce French e-invoices?
Yes. Billing features apply the right TVA rate, show your SIREN and intra-community VAT number with the other mandatory mentions, and can output Factur-X, UBL or CII for exchange through the approved platform you choose.
Can API Development be hosted in France or the EU?
Yes. We agree hosting at the start, usually a French or other EU region of AWS, Azure or a French cloud provider, and document it together with access controls and retention for GDPR.
What makes an API worth paying for?
Documentation, error handling and versioning. Any developer can return JSON. What costs money later is an API that breaks partners on every change, fails silently, or cannot be integrated without a phone call.
Can you build an API over a legacy system?
Often yes, as a facade over the database or an existing interface. Where the legacy system genuinely has no safe access route we will say so rather than building something fragile on top of it.
Do you provide a partner sandbox?
Yes. A sandbox with realistic test data is what turns a partner integration from weeks of back-and-forth into something they can complete on their own.
How much does API development cost in France?
We quote a fixed price in EUR after a discovery session, broken into phases so you are never committing to the whole build on day one. Anyone quoting a number before understanding the process is guessing, and you will pay for that guess later.
What happens after launch?
You own everything: code, repositories, cloud accounts and documentation. Most clients take a monthly support retainer for fixes, security patching and enhancements, but you are free to take it in-house or elsewhere.
Which hours do you work?
Our consultants work French working hours (CET/CEST), Monday to Friday, for workshops, training and support, with cover outside core hours for critical issues.
Do you sign an NDA before we share our data?
Yes, as a matter of course. We also work in a sandbox with masked or sample data wherever the real thing is not needed.
Can you build in French as well as English?
Yes. We build bilingual French and English templates, forms, portals and app interfaces where your customers or staff need French. Training and documentation are delivered in English.

Where custom development is weak - and what we do about it

Bespoke software costs more than configuring a product and you own it forever, including the maintenance. If an off-the-shelf tool covers 80% of the need, building from scratch is usually the wrong call.

How we handle it: We say so at the first call, even when it means a smaller project - and we scope the 20% as a configuration or integration job instead.
