Project Summary

TPIsoftware provided API and web development services for Secro, building and extending APIs and delivering a customer-facing website. The vendor built APIs using Python and Django, later adding APIs on FastAPI, optimized the database, documented legacy code, and produced PRDs. The site was developed and hosted on Heroku. The client reported fast API call times, good test coverage and code reviews, and praised the team's communication and ownership.
