API Consulting & Support Services for Digital Businesses
At River API, our mission is to help UK businesses embrace and use the power of APIs to the fullest. Along with API development, our mission is to ensure your software plays nice with third-party systems and stays secure under load.
From structured API strategy to ongoing consulting and guidance, River API works with technical teams who’ve already built something and need sharper eyes on it. We step in to review architecture, pressure-test assumptions, and give you a plan that works.

Our API Consulting & Support Services
River API steps in where the docs leave off. We advise on integration design, validate what’s already built, and make sure your APIs stay secure, stable, and ready for real world use and heavy traffic.
Integration Consulting
Most integration issues don’t show up during development, they appear in production when real traffic hits the system. Our API consultants work with your team to audit your third-party integrations, custom APIs, and AI workflows to see what holds your software back. Our key focus during integration consulting services is on data flow, API behaviour, failure recovery, and real world reliability.
Key stages of integration consulting service:
- Reviewing existing integrations, error logs, and flow logic
- Identifying structural inefficiencies, versioning conflicts, and fragile dependencies
- Proposing clear, incremental improvements and implementation steps

API Security & Maintenance
APIs always remain a target of hacker attacks and malicious code injections. River API developers keep them secure, up-to-date, and unattainable for cyber threats. By partnering with us for API support and maintenance services, we don't mean waiting for a ticket to be answered. We proactively monitor your software to fix bugs and issues before they affect users.
Key stages of API security and maintenance service:
- Auditing access controls, auth mechanisms, and endpoint exposure
- Implementing monitoring, alerts, and automated failure recovery
- Patching vulnerabilities, tightening permissions, and keeping dependencies up to date

Our Consulting Process
By fighting vague assumptions and legacy complications, River API creates a step-by-step development plan that keeps your business forward.
01. Assess
We start with the assessment of your endpoints, integration patterns, and code quality. Before initiating any consulting services, it is essential to understand how your software behaves and where technical debt is hiding.
02. Map
Next, the River API team maps the connections between data, services, and AI tools. During this stage, we aim to understand data flow dependencies and detect breakpoints.
03. Recommend
We provide clear, prioritised recommendations on your next roadmap. This includes urgent fixes, next milestones, and refactoring opportunities.
04. Support
Any software requires ongoing support and maintenance, and APIs are not an exception. We offer continuous API support packages for our clients.

Make integrations less fragile by untangling legacy logic, mismatched schemas, and versioning chaos
Reduce support tickets with systems that handle edge cases and fail gracefully
