Mobile Backend as a Service (MBaaS)

Scalable mobile backends with authentication, push notifications, storage and real-time sync built in.

Overview

Most apps need the same backend basics: sign-in, data storage, push notifications and sync. Platforms such as Firebase or Supabase provide them ready-made, if they're set up securely.

We choose and configure the right backend platform, write secure access rules and test them, so your app can grow without a custom backend from day one.

What we do

  • 01

    Choose a backend platform for your app

  • 02

    Set up authentication and user management

  • 03

    Configure push notifications and storage

  • 04

    Add real-time sync and offline support

  • 05

    Secure and test data access rules

How we work

  1. Step 1

    Scope

    We agree features, platforms and the devices your users have.

  2. Step 2

    Build

    Native or cross-platform development in weekly increments.

  3. Step 3

    Test on real devices

    Every build is tested on physical iOS and Android devices.

  4. Step 4

    Release

    Store submission, launch monitoring and updates.

Who it's for

  • Startups launching a first mobile app
  • Apps needing real-time features or offline sync
  • Teams without backend developers

What you get

  • A backend platform recommendation
  • Authentication, storage and push set up
  • Secure data access rules
  • Testing of security rules and sync

Questions

Firebase or a custom backend?+

Platforms like Firebase are faster to start; a custom backend gives more control as you grow. We'll explain the trade-offs.

Is our data secure?+

Security depends on access rules. We write and test them so users can only see their own data.

What does it cost?+

Hourly work starts from $25/hr. Fixed-price projects and dedicated teams are quoted after a free scoping call, based on scope, platforms and timeline.
