Tech for people who want to do anything but.
Whatever shape your tech problem takes — a stack of apps that don't talk to each other, a website nobody's touched since it launched, or just one nagging question you don't know who to ask — that's what we're here for.
The Kernel Patch is practical, dependable tech support for small, community-rooted businesses — the kind of place where nobody's job description includes "IT." We handle the technology side of running a business so you can get back to the work you actually opened your doors to do.
That covers a lot of ground: fixing what's broken, simplifying what's overcomplicated, and helping you figure out what you actually need versus what you've been told you need. Every engagement starts the same way — a short, no-pressure conversation to understand what's going on before anything gets touched.

Keeping you up to date is the best way to stay safe!
We listen
a free consult where you vent about your technology and we figure out what is broken, and how you want to really work.
We map it
A plain-English list of all your tools, what overlaps, what is missing and what is quietly costing you money.
We fix it

We Support
