Clay
Clay is a large suburban Onondaga County town north of Syracuse, a growing residential community with major retail corridors, business parks, and a base of shops, contractors, and service businesses. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for Clay's shops, contractors, and service businesses, and we serve them from York County, Pennsylvania (across the state) remote-first, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
Do you work with businesses in Clay?
Yes, remote-first, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Clay client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
What would you build for a Clay shop or contractor?
Usually a customer, scheduling, inventory, or billing platform built around how your operation runs, so a Clay business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
Where does AI help a Clay operator?
In intake, scheduling, customer email, and follow-up, so a Clay business gets real leverage without adding headcount.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Clay 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 Clay business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Clay 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 Clay 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, handled remotely with direct access for urgent problems instead of a ticket queue.
Can you do marketing in more than one language for Clay?
Yes, local SEO and content in English and Spanish where it fits your customers, so people searching in their own language find you first.
Can you help a Clay business get found online?
Yes, local SEO and content tuned for Clay and its retail corridors, so the customers searching nearby find you first.
