Yellowtail

Yellowtail is a small community on the Crow Reservation in Big Horn County, Montana near Fort Smith, the Yellowtail Dam, and the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area, named for the Crow chairman Robert Yellowtail. Its activity centers on the Crow Nation's community, ranching, world-class trout fishing and recreation on the Bighorn River below the dam, and the families and businesses serving the area. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Crow Nation, its enterprises and programs, and the Yellowtail and Fort Smith area's ranching, recreation, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip. When we build for the Nation, the Nation owns its data and its systems, full stop.

Do you work with the Crow community and businesses in the Yellowtail and Fort Smith area, Montana?

Yes. Remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, and being a Crow Reservation community near the Yellowtail Dam and Bighorn Canyon is no obstacle: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Yellowtail-area client, tribal enterprise, recreation business, or ranch, gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.

If you build a system for the Crow Nation, who owns the data?

The Nation does, full stop. We respect tribal data sovereignty: the Crow Nation owns its data and its systems outright, the data stays under the Nation's control, and there is no vendor lock-in.

Can you help a Yellowtail or Fort Smith fishing, guiding, or recreation business?

Yes. A fly-fishing outfitter, guide service, lodging, or recreation business on the Bighorn River below Yellowtail Dam and around the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area is exactly who we build booking, reservation, trip-management, and customer tools for, and we tune local SEO so anglers planning a trip find you; for tribal enterprises, the Nation owns the result and the data.

Can you respect tribal data sovereignty and the Nation's governance of its own information?

Yes. That's foundational to how we work with a Nation. We build so that data ownership, hosting, access, and governance stay with the Crow Nation, and we document it plainly so there's never ambiguity about who controls what.

Can you build Crow-language (Apsaalooke) tools for the Yellowtail-area community?

Yes. For tribal programs, enterprises, or community organizations, we can build interfaces, content, forms, and language tools that support the Apsaalooke language alongside English, scoped to how the Nation and community want to use them.

Can you help a Yellowtail-area ranch with cattle and herd management?

Yes. A cattle ranch near Yellowtail and Fort Smith is exactly who we build herd, calving, grazing, inventory, and recordkeeping tools for, around how the operation actually runs across the seasons and the range.

Can you help a Crow tribal program or enterprise serving the area?

Yes. A tribal program or enterprise is exactly who we build case-management, operations, booking, and reporting platforms for, around how the Nation runs the work, with data kept under tribal control.

Where does AI help a Yellowtail-area organization or business?

In intake, booking, trip-scheduling, recordkeeping, member or customer email, and follow-up, so a recreation business, ranch, tribal program, or enterprise gets real leverage across the fishing season without adding headcount, while keeping data under its own control.

What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Yellowtail-area business?

Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, and a written recovery plan, plus secure payment handling and, for tribal-facing work, access controls aligned to the Nation's data-governance rules. We set it up and manage it for you.

What does a custom platform cost a Yellowtail-area organization?

A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what the Nation, enterprise, or business actually needs and phase it so value lands before the season.

How long until it's running, and who owns the code and data?

Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there, and you own the code and data outright, no lock-in; and when we build for the Nation, the Crow Nation owns its data and systems outright.

Can you help a Yellowtail-area business get found online?

Yes. Local SEO and content tuned for the Yellowtail and Fort Smith area, its Bighorn River fishing and Bighorn Canyon recreation draw, the Crow Reservation, and the wider Big Horn County area, so the anglers, visitors, and customers searching find you first.

What we do for Yellowtail businesses

Every engagement is built around how your Yellowtail-area operation actually runs, a Bighorn River fishing or recreation business, a Crow tribal enterprise, a ranch, or a local organization, not an off-the-shelf template, and when we build for the Nation, with tribal data sovereignty and ownership built in. Here's where we help:

Booking, reservation, trip-management, herd, case-management, and reporting platforms built around how a Yellowtail-area recreation, ranch, or tribal enterprise runs, with the Nation owning its data and systems outright when we build for the Crow Nation.

Intelligent Automation

AI and workflow automation that takes intake, booking, scheduling, recordkeeping, and member or customer email off a Yellowtail-area team's plate, so your people focus on the work through the season, with data kept under your control.

Marketing & SEO

Local SEO and content tuned for the Yellowtail and Fort Smith area, its Bighorn River fishing and Bighorn Canyon recreation draw, the Crow Reservation, and the wider Big Horn County area, so the anglers, visitors, and customers searching find you first.
