Raritan
Raritan is a Somerset County borough next to Somerville with a proud Italian-American heritage, a walkable Somerset Street downtown, and a tight-knit community of shops and restaurants. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for Raritan's shops, restaurants, and small businesses, and we serve them from York County, Pennsylvania, remote-first with on-site time when a project warrants the drive.
Do you work with businesses in Raritan?
Yes — remote-first, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Raritan client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
What would you build for a Raritan shop or restaurant?
Usually a customer, booking, ordering, or billing platform built around how your downtown business runs — so a Raritan shop or restaurant works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
Where does AI help a Raritan operator?
In intake, scheduling, customer email, and follow-up — so a Raritan business gets real leverage without adding headcount.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Raritan business?
Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, and a written recovery plan, plus secure payment handling if you take card payments. We set it up and manage it for you.
What does a custom platform cost a Raritan business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Raritan operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
How long until it's running?
Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there.
Who owns the code and data?
You do, outright — no lock-in. The platform and data belong to your Raritan business.
How fast do you respond when something breaks?
Typically 15–60 minutes during business hours and under an hour after-hours for critical issues, with direct access for urgent problems instead of a ticket queue.
Can you help a Raritan business stand out online?
Yes — local SEO and content tuned for Raritan and its Somerset Street downtown, so the customers searching nearby find your door first.
Do you replace our current systems or work with them?
We keep what's working and replace only what's holding you back, so a Raritan business isn't forced into a rebuild it didn't ask for.
