Why Python for this
We write the specification before the implementation, because the consumers' experience is the product and it deserves to be designed rather than discovered.
Python is strongest at the entire ML ecosystem lives here. For api design & integration that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: for high-concurrency web services, TypeScript or Go usually serve better. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.
Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

We are not a reseller for Python and hold no commission on this choice. Where a different option fits your workload better, the recommendation will say so. That is the entire value of asking us.
What is included
- OpenAPI specification written before the implementation
- Versioning strategy that does not break consumers
- Authentication, scopes and rate limiting
- Webhooks with retries and signature verification
- Idempotency on every state-changing endpoint
- Generated documentation and a sandbox
Questions
REST or GraphQL?
REST for partner-facing and public APIs where caching and simplicity matter; GraphQL where a first-party client needs flexible, varied queries. Most systems end up with both, used deliberately.
Do you document it?
Generated from the OpenAPI specification, with a working sandbox. Documentation written by hand and separately always drifts.
Can you integrate with legacy SOAP systems?
Yes, usually by wrapping them in a clean modern interface rather than exposing the legacy contract onward.
Alternatives for api design & integration
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
