Alplaus
Alplaus is a hamlet in the Schenectady County town of Glenville on the Alplaus Creek near the Mohawk River, a quiet residential community of homes and a base of contractors, shops, and service businesses north of Schenectady. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Alplaus area's contractors, shops, 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 Alplaus?
Yes — remote-first, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. An Alplaus client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
What would you build for an Alplaus shop or contractor?
Usually a customer, scheduling, inventory, or billing platform built around how your operation runs — so an Alplaus business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
Where does AI help an Alplaus operator?
In intake, scheduling, customer email, and follow-up — so an Alplaus business gets real leverage without adding headcount.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for an Alplaus 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 an Alplaus business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Alplaus 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 Alplaus 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 Alplaus?
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 an Alplaus business get found online?
