Somerville
Somerville is the seat of Somerset County, a walkable downtown with a lively Main Street of restaurants and shops, the county courts, and a calendar of street festivals and the famous Tour of Somerville bike race. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for Somerville's restaurants, shops, professional firms, and practices, 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 Somerville?
Yes — remote-first, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Somerville client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
What would you build for a Somerville restaurant, shop, or firm?
Usually a booking, ordering, scheduling, or billing platform built around how your operation runs — so a Somerville business works from one system instead of a stack of apps that don't talk to each other.
Where does AI fit for a Somerville operator?
In intake, reservation and customer email, scheduling, and reporting — the repetitive work that scales badly — so a Somerville team covers more without proportionally more staff.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Somerville 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 Somerville business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; a multi-workflow platform runs higher. We scope it to what your Somerville 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 Somerville 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 Somerville business stand out online?
Yes — local SEO and content tuned for Somerville and its Main 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 Somerville business isn't forced into a rebuild it didn't ask for.
