Serving Kendall County & the Fox Valley
Main & Maple builds websites that bring in calls, sets up AI that answers the ones you miss, and fixes the tech that's in your way. For the businesses on Main Street and the families on Maple Avenue.
You'll work with me, Joseph.
Not a call center, not a ticket number.
What I do
Local businesses and the families around them need the same thing from their tech: it should work, and someone should answer when it doesn't.
Main St Businesses
Maple Ave Homes
Wi-Fi, new phones, printers, smart TVs, scam scares, and setting up AI safely for the family.

How house calls workAfter hours
Your AI receptionist answers in your business name, books the job on your calendar, and emails you a summary within minutes. Emergencies get transferred straight to your cell. Everything else waits in your inbox for morning.
About 27% of calls to home-services businesses go unanswered. Fewer than 3% of callers who reach voicemail leave a message.

How it works
Tell me what's working and what isn't. I'll tell you what I'd do and what it costs, even if the answer is that you don't need me.
No hourly surprises. You'll know the total and the timeline before I start.
You get a private link to review, and you change whatever you want before anything goes live.
We go live together. After that, changes are a text away.
Pricing
Most shops make you call for a quote. Here's what things cost.
Founding five: The first five local businesses get founding prices and their first month of care free. In return: permission to show your project as an example.

Who you'll work with
For 21 years in the Navy, that meant pumps, hydraulics, and engineering spaces, and later the maintenance crew for the Navy's boot camp at Great Lakes: 42 buildings on 240 acres and 2,461 repair requests. The job was to keep things running and to answer when something broke at 2 a.m.
Computers have been the constant since I was about 13. In the last year I built Shprd, a family app with a web version, an Android version, payments, and an AI assistant. That's the toolkit I'm bringing to Main Street.
When you work with Main & Maple, you work with me. I'll explain things in plain English, give you a price before I start, and pick up when you call.
Proof of work

LiveA toolkit that gives developers' AI coding assistants daily health checks, next-step suggestions, and saved session context. Published on PyPI.
Visit docs.popkit.devI build with a team of AI coding agents working under written rules, review checks, and safety limits, with me directing and approving the work. That's how one person shipped more than 2,500 merged changes to Shprd since December 2025. It's also why I can turn around a local business website in about a week without cutting corners.
Questions
Me, Joseph Cannon. I've been building with computers since I was about 13. I spent 21 years in the Navy running maintenance crews and engineering spaces, and in the last year I built a full family app with a web version, an Android version, payments, and an AI assistant. Main & Maple is how I put that to work for the people and businesses near me.
Kendall County and the Fox Valley: Yorkville, Oswego, Montgomery, Plano, Sandwich, Sugar Grove, Aurora, and the towns around them, roughly 20 miles out. Websites and AI setup can happen anywhere. House calls stay local.
Usually this week. Most websites go live about 7 days after our interview, the photo visit, and access to your domain. AI receptionists take 3 to 5 days. House calls are usually within 2 to 3 days.
No. Projects have a fixed price we agree on before I start. Care plans and AI receptionists are month to month. The one exception is the $0-down website plan, which is 12 monthly payments.
It can be, when it's set up with care. I configure privacy settings, keep customer details out of places they don't belong, and write the rules down for your staff. If AI isn't the right tool for a job, I'll tell you.
Before launch, you get a private preview and a full round of changes, and anything I got wrong, I fix at no charge. After launch, the care plan covers changes. If something I built breaks, I fix it at no charge.
Main Street is where local businesses live. Maple Avenue is where the families who keep them going live. I work for both.
