Xano consulting
Fractional Backend Partner
Senior Xano architecture, reviews and release support without a full-time hire.
You sold the project. Now you need a backend that holds up.
I work with digital and no-code agencies as a technical Xano specialist. You can count on me for architecture, implementation, integrations, rescue work, and clean client handoffs. You keep the client relationship and the margin.
Does this sound familiar?
- Your frontend team is strong, but Xano backend depth is missing in-house.
- Quoting backend work feels like guesswork, thinking about scope, effort, risk is too daunting.
- A project is live but slow, undocumented, or painful to extend.
- Hiring a full-time backend specialist doesn't make sense for your project volume.
- You've had handoffs where the client (or the next developer) couldn't maintain what was built.
If yes, that's exactly the gap I fill.
What I can own for you
White-label Xano development
I deliver under your process and your brand. Your client sees one team: yours. Clear communication with your PM, your frontend devs, and your client (only if you want me in the room, that's your call).
Pre-sales & estimation support
Bring me into discovery before you quote. I'll scope the backend, flag the risks, and give you numbers you can safely put in a proposal so that your team doesn’t get surprised later.
Overflow capacity
Your team is full, the deadline isn't moving. I slot in as senior Xano capacity for the stretch that's currently impossible to staff.
Project rescue
Late, messy, or stalled Xano project? I audit what exists, stabilize it, document it, and map the fastest credible path to done. Rescue work is where "no-code" projects most often get saved or abandoned. I favor getting them saved.
Architecture & quality review
Second pair of eyes before handoff: data models, API structure, authentication and permissions, error handling, performance. A review report your team can act on.
Handoff & enablement
Documentation, project transfer, and a walkthrough, so the client (or your team) can operate what was built without being dependent on me.
How working together feels
1. One call —> 30 minutes. You explain the client, the scope, the constraint. I tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.
2. A scoped agreement —> fixed deliverable or a block of hours. No vague retainers, no lock-in.
3. Delivery in your workflow —> I work in your tools, your Xano account structure, your comms channel. Daily-async is normal; calls are for decisions, which are togher than those that can be just an email.
4. A clean exit —> everything documented. My goal is that you never need me for maintenance. You choose me for the next project.
Why a specialist, not another generalist
I build open-source tooling for Xano developers: the Caly-Xano CLI , a Chrome extension , and utilities for the community. That means I work inside Xano's edge cases daily: environment management, testing, versioned workflows, deployment discipline.
The difference shows up a few months after delivery, when the project still makes sense.
Fair questions
◊ Will you poach our clients?
No. Long word, short answer. I’d like to work with you again. That only works if you win.
◊ Can you work under an NDA / white-label?
Yes, that's the default mode for agency work.
◊ EU-based?
Based in Vienna, Austria. EU timezone, EU data protection mindset, GDPR-aware by default.
◊ What if the project is small?
Small and clear is great. I'd rather fix one API well than pad a scope.
