Get Started Our Work

Hacktory is an unlimited backend development service for startups, businesses and agencies seeking to build MVPs and prototypes.

Cycle faster with our help

Hacktory offers massive value for those who need on-demand, high quality backend APIs. Whether you're a giant company looking to test out new concepts or a startup in need for rapid prototype development.

Reduce your development time

We build custom-made, scalable backends within days or weeks.

Don't sacrifice quality: All of our code is written in GERMANY/USA.

Instead of configuring Firebase / Azure etc to your needs, get a real codebase to work with in the future.

We create massive value for you:

We provide protoypes of products within 1 to 3 weeks instead several months. We are always reachable and pride ourselves on quality and communication.

All our products are custom tailored for you: You own the code and the codebase, do whatever you want with it! Quality is our highest objective. We want to build incredible stuff and always push the limits.

Do the math: One year of our service costs $6K. A typical prototype takes 14 days of time and labor costs. With our service you will be able to iterate and adapt your project within short time, adding features on a need-to basis, while staying within budget.

Custom API design or RESTful JSON

No matter what kind of API you need, chances are we have done something like it in the past. We work closely together with you in order to tailor the backend your organization needs.

Deployment: AWS, Heroku or Custom

We help you decide what infrastructure is right for your product and MVP because different services need different infrastructure. Trust our experts bringing years of experience in various fields like High Performance Computing, Software Architecture and DevOps.

Specifications

Our engineers guide you with a simple set of questions and feedback to make sure you get what you want.

Backends for all types of applications

Android, IOS, Desktop or WebApp, we build your backend specific to your requirements. We also support a variety of technological stacks including: Ruby-on-Rails, Python, NodeJS, and Java EE (Spring). If you do not see your stack listed, don't worry! Our experts can work with you to custom tailor the solution that fits your needs.

Cost efficient and smart

Don't pay for what you don't need and won't use. Our engineers know what to pick when it comes to deciding on the right infrastructure for a project. An MVP with a handful users does not need a 10 dyno setup on Heroku and we make sure you get the best bang for your money.

Need a third-part API integrated? We do that too!

We love working with other companies APIs to build cool new products.
