Xano Development, Accelerated with AI
AI Assisted API Design
AI helps us plan API structures, endpoint patterns and data relationships from your requirements before we build in Xano.
Test Scenarios for Logic
AI helps us draft test scenarios for your Xano function stacks, so edge cases in conditional logic and data transformations get checked before release.
Data Model Reviews
AI helps us review your schema for normalization issues, indexing gaps and slow queries, so your Xano database keeps up as your product grows.
Faster Iteration Cycles
AI helps us prototype and iterate on Xano backends faster, so you see working endpoints sooner and can give feedback earlier.
An Enterprise Tier Xano Partner
Unico Connect is an Enterprise tier partner in the Xano global partner program, its highest tier, and we were the first agency to reach it, in October 2025. Reaching it takes certified Xano expertise and a track record of delivering complex, scalable solutions on the platform. For you, it means your backend is built by a team that Xano itself vets and equips.
Xano-certified expertise. The partnership is certification-gated, so every build follows Xano engineering standards.
First access to new Xano capabilities such as MCP and Agents before public release, with a channel to share product feedback with Xano.
Enterprise is the highest tier of the Xano partner program, reserved for agencies shipping complex, scalable production systems.
A Xano-vetted team with a closer line to Xano, which means fewer blockers and faster delivery on your backend.
What Our Xano Developers Build
API Development & Integration
RESTful APIs built on Xano with authentication, rate limiting, and proper error handling. Connect to any frontend or third-party service.
Database Architecture
Scalable data models with proper relationships, indexes, and query optimization. Designed for production load from day one.
Business Logic Automation
Complex workflows and function stacks that handle conditional processing, data transformations, and multi-step operations without custom code.
Third-Party Integrations
Connect Xano to Stripe, Twilio, SendGrid and other services through external API requests, webhooks and custom middleware, and to Algolia through its native Xano function.
Authentication & Security
Role based access control, JWE token authentication, input validation, and API security best practices built into every Xano project.
Migration & Optimization
Migrate existing backends to Xano or optimize underperforming Xano setups. Performance audits, schema restructuring, and workflow optimization.
Build AI-Ready Backends on Xano
MCP Servers
We build and host Model Context Protocol servers on Xano with the same visual builder used for your APIs, so your data and logic are ready for AI agents to use securely.
Xano Agents
Configure LLM-powered agents with tools, memory, and orchestration that act on your database, APIs, and tasks, all running inside your Xano backend.
MCP Client & Integrations
Xano can call remote MCP servers and external tools from a function stack, so your backend orchestrates AI workflows end to end rather than just storing data.
AI Native Dev Workflow
We work across the visual canvas, AI assisted building, and full code with Git sync, and connect Xano to VS Code and Claude Code for faster, reviewable delivery.
VETTING PIPELINE
How engineers earn a spot on our team
Our hiring process has three stages, from the application screen to a project deep dive with background verification, and every new engineer then serves a probation period.
4 checks
Application screen
We source engineers across India through LinkedIn, Wellfound, employee referrals and outbound headhunting. Every application is checked for stack relevance, years of experience, English and time zone overlap before it moves to a technical interview.
60 to 90 min
Live coding and scenario questions
A live coding round of 60 to 90 minutes in the primary technology of the candidate, followed by scenario based questions on practical applications of that technology.
3 checks
Project deep dive and background verification
Candidates walk us through a recent production project, covering the architecture decisions and what they would change in hindsight. A third party background verification agency then confirms prior employment, education and identity.
Probation
A probation period follows
New engineers then serve a probation period, and those who do not meet our bar do not continue with us.
