Highmore
Highmore is the county seat of Hyde County in central South Dakota along the US-14 corridor in wheat, corn, sunflower, and cattle country not far from Lake Sharpe and the Missouri River, a courthouse-and-ranch-service town with a base of agriculture, ranching, retail, healthcare, trades, and the small businesses serving the surrounding farms and ranches. Its seat status and corridor location anchor a steady small-county economy. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for Highmore's agriculture, ranching, retail, healthcare, and trades 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.
Do you work with businesses in Highmore, South Dakota?
Yes. Remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, and being the Hyde County seat on the US-14 corridor is no obstacle: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Highmore client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
Does working from out of state make support harder?
No, it's the opposite. A county seat like Highmore is exactly where remote-first support works best: you get fast, responsive help and senior attention without paying for a local storefront's overhead.
Can you help a Highmore farm or ranch with recordkeeping and logistics?
Yes. A wheat, corn, sunflower, or cattle operation near Highmore is exactly who we build production, recordkeeping, herd, inventory, and logistics tools for, around how the season and the haul actually run.
What would you build for a Highmore retail or trades business?
Usually a point-of-sale, scheduling, job-tracking, or billing platform built around how your operation runs, so a Highmore business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
Can you build something for a Highmore healthcare or professional office?
Yes. A clinic, dental, or professional office in Highmore is exactly who we build scheduling, intake, document, and billing tools for, scoped to how the practice runs in the county seat.

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 Highmore business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Highmore operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
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.
