The API Development Bottleneck
How Backend Complexity Slows Mobile Development
Current Challenges in Mobile App Development
- Development teams must write custom API endpoints for each data need
- Implementing authentication and security adds complexity
- Creating data transformation layers requires specialized knowledge
- Error handling and response formatting consume development time
- Non-technical teams wait days or weeks for simple data changes
The Result: Mobile app development cycles that should take days stretch into weeks or months, with excessive resources dedicated to backend infrastructure rather than user-facing features that drive value.
