Au Gres
Au Gres is a small city on the Saginaw Bay shore in eastern Arenac County, a Lake Huron fishing and harbor town long known for its walleye and a marina at the mouth of the Au Gres River, with beaches, a summer-tourism economy, and a base of shops, lodging, and service businesses. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for Au Gres's shops, restaurants, lodging, marinas, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — nationwide, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.

Not at all — remote-first is how we work everywhere, so an Au Gres business gets the same fast response and attention as one downstate, without waiting on a road trip.

A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Au Gres operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
