Ann Arbor
Ann Arbor is the seat of Washtenaw County and home to the University of Michigan, one of the country's leading research universities, anchoring a top tech, biotech, and startup hub alongside Michigan Medicine's healthcare system, with a highly educated, affluent, and international community and a walkable downtown of restaurants, shops, and arts around Main Street and Kerrytown. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for Ann Arbor's tech and professional firms, healthcare practices, restaurants, retailers, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — nationwide, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.

What would you build for an Ann Arbor tech firm, practice, or restaurant?

In intake, customer and client email, scheduling, document handling, translation, and follow-up — so an Ann Arbor business gets real leverage without adding headcount.

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