Why outstaff instead of hiring? Because every extra week spent recruiting in-house is revenue left on the table. With Smartbrain.io you tap a ready-to-deploy bench of JavaScript engineers who have already built, secured and optimized API monetization gateways for fintech, telecom and SaaS leaders. No payroll, hardware or compliance headaches — we remain the legal employer, you retain 100 % IP ownership. Scale teams up or down in days, not quarters, and pay only for the expertise you actually use. The result: faster launch, predictable costs, and freedom to focus on product, not paperwork.

What leaders say
“Smartbrain’s JavaScript duo plugged straight into our Node.js stack, rebuilt the API monetization gateway limits module and pushed it to prod in 3 weeks. We saw fewer throttling tickets and a happier dev team without stretching internal resources.”
Grace Mitchell
CTO
BlueRiver Payments
“Their senior engineer optimised our Express-based billing APIs and introduced dynamic quota plans. Onboarding took one day, productivity shot up, and compliance logs are finally spotless.”
David Clarke
VP Engineering
HealthSync Analytics
“We needed TypeScript talent yesterday. Smartbrain delivered. The augmented dev integrated usage metering into our gateway and cut latency by 22 %. Project stayed on schedule, finance loved the flexible contract.”
Sophia Perez
Engineering Manager
TruFleet Logistics
“Our React commerce platform hit call limits. Smartbrain’s outstaffed JS specialist refactored the gateway, added Stripe-based tiered billing, and we launched premium endpoints in a month.”
Michael Johnson
Head of Product
RetailNexus Corp
“Their developer slotted into our Scrum rituals, migrated our legacy PHP gateway to a modern Node.js solution and deployed pay-per-call plans. City clients are thrilled, and we reduced ops costs.”
Emily Sanders
Product Owner
CivicCloud Services
“Smartbrain provided a senior JS architect who stabilised our Koa.js gateway, introduced real-time metering and cut support tickets by 40 %. Integration was seamless; my team could focus on grid analytics.”

Industries we power
FinTech & Payments
Challenge: Instant, secure monetization of high-volume transaction APIs.
What JS talent does: Implement granular rate-limiting, real-time metering, PCI-compliant billing logic and dashboard analytics — all inside an API monetization gateway built with Node.js, TypeScript and Redis streams, letting banks launch new revenue channels fast.
Telecom & IoT
Challenge: Billions of device calls need transparent pricing.
Augmented JavaScript developers craft scalable quota engines, Kafka-backed usage logs and edge gateways that convert network events into invoice-ready data, allowing carriers to sell premium API tiers without latency spikes.
E-commerce Platforms
Stores expose product, inventory and checkout APIs that partners love — until traffic explodes. JS specialists integrate API monetization gateway layers with Stripe, build React-based self-service portals and secure tokens, turning external consumption into predictable MRR.
Digital Media & OTT
Streaming providers capitalise on recommendation and subtitle APIs. Our outstaffed JavaScript teams embed usage-based billing, JWT auth and GraphQL cost analysis so that every content request yields margin without buffering penalties.
Healthcare Tech
HIPAA-ready gateways built in NestJS handle EHR, imaging and wearables data. Engineers add audit-proof metering, consent management and monetisation plugins, letting providers charge for secure data access while staying compliant.
Smart Cities
Civic datasets—from traffic to air quality—become revenue streams when a robust API monetization gateway enforces fair-use and subscription tiers. JS devs integrate GIS layers, OpenAPI docs and citizen-friendly payment flows.
AdTech
Real-time bidding depends on millisecond APIs. Augmented engineers optimise event-driven Node.js gateways, add k-means usage clustering and deliver pay-per-call billing that advertisers happily scale.
Energy & Utilities
IoT sensor data is gold. JavaScript teams create secure MQTT-to-REST gateways with role-based access, dynamic pricing and demand-based throttling — turning grid data into a profitable API product.
Travel & Mobility
Ride, flight and hotel APIs monetize seat availability in real time. JS developers build ES6 micro-services that meter TPS, expose partner dashboards and plug into payment providers to capture new revenue every booking.
API monetization gateway case studies
FinTech Gateway Reinvention
Client: Series-B payments provider.
Challenge: Legacy infrastructure throttled growth; integrating a modern API monetization gateway was mandatory to charge for new FX endpoints.
Solution: Two augmented JavaScript seniors (Node.js + TypeScript) migrated rate-limiting logic to Redis, embedded Stripe-based billing and deployed Canary releases via GitHub Actions.
Result: 37 % latency reduction, 4 new revenue tiers live in 6 weeks, and engineering capacity freed for core wallet features.
IoT Device Billing at Scale
Client: Smart-meter manufacturer selling data to utilities.
Challenge: Needed an API monetization gateway to meter billions of MQTT messages and invoice partners accurately.
Solution: Our augmented JS squad built a Kafka-backed usage pipeline, transformed events with RxJS and exported billing records to NetSuite nightly.
Result: **5× throughput**, **99.98 % uptime**, first invoices generated in 8 weeks, slashing manual reconciliation hours by **90 %**.
Retail API to Profit Center
Client: Global marketplace.
Challenge: Product-catalog service lacked monetization; partners hammered endpoints causing outages. An API monetization gateway with dynamic quotas was essential.
Solution: One senior and one mid-level JavaScript engineer from Smartbrain embedded an Express/Kong hybrid layer, added OAuth scopes and self-service upgrade flows.
Result: **22 % traffic offload**, annual API revenue hit **$3.4 M**, support tickets down **41 %** within 3 months.

Our Core Services
Gateway Architecture
Senior JavaScript architects design scalable node-based gateways with rate-limiting, auth and billing baked in, ensuring your monetization layer performs under peak loads without costly rewrites.
Usage-Metering Modules
Outstaffed engineers implement precise metering with Redis counters, Kafka streams or AWS API Gateway custom logic, feeding real-time dashboards that convert usage into invoices.
Billing & Payments
Experts integrate Stripe, Braintree or custom ledger solutions, automating subscription cycles, fail-over retries and tax compliance across geographies.
Developer Portals
React/Next.js teams craft self-service portals with API keys, docs and upgrade paths, boosting partner satisfaction and reducing support burden.
Performance Optimization
We profile Node.js event loops, tune GC, add CDN edge caching and roll out TypeScript refactors that cut latencies and hosting bills.
Maintenance & Support
24/7 standby engineers monitor log pipelines, patch vulnerabilities and roll blue-green deploys — your gateway stays profitable and secure round-the-clock.
