What does Technovate do?

Technovate is a Gaithersburg, Maryland based technology company serving the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. We run two service lines: managed IT and cybersecurity for businesses, and home theater, AV, and smart home automation for residential clients.

What areas does Technovate serve?

We serve the entire DMV region, including Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia, with a concentration of work in Montgomery County, Arlington, Fairfax, Alexandria, and the surrounding counties.

Does Technovate work with both businesses and homeowners?

Yes. Our corporate side handles IT support, help desk, and cybersecurity for small and mid-size businesses. Our residential side designs and installs home theaters, whole-home audio, and smart home automation for homeowners.

What kind of cybersecurity does Technovate provide for small businesses?

We provide 24/7 threat monitoring, patch management, and proactive alerting built around how your business actually operates, not a compliance checklist. The goal is catching and handling threats before they become an emergency.

What is the difference between managed IT and break-fix support?

Break-fix means you call someone only when something breaks, and problems tend to repeat. Managed IT means we monitor and maintain your systems continuously, so issues get prevented or caught early. With Technovate, you also deal directly with the person who set up your system.

Does Technovate install home theaters?

Yes. We design and install custom home theaters across the DMV, including projectors, displays, speaker systems, and whole-home audio, planned around your specific space and how you use it, not off-the-shelf packages.

What is home automation and do I need professional installation?

Home automation connects your lighting, audio, climate, and security so they work together and are simple to control. DIY products can work for a single room, but a professionally installed system is more reliable and expandable across a whole home, which is what we build.

Who runs Technovate?

Technovate is founded and led by Arian “AJ” Mohammadi, who has more than 20 years of combined experience in IT, cybersecurity, and high-end residential AV. AJ is directly involved in design, installation, and ongoing support.

How quickly does Technovate respond when something goes wrong?

Because we are local to the DMV and owner-led, you reach the people who actually handle your systems, rather than a call center. Responsiveness and direct accountability are the core of how we work.
