Isabela Myre is the founder of Raven's Quill.
I grew up in northwest Wisconsin, where local businesses aren't an abstraction — they're your neighbors, and they hold towns together. I've also known more than one entrepreneur who thought they were building a business and ended up building a job: something that took a little more of their time, energy, and life every year just to keep running. Watching that happen to people is what this business is built to prevent.
I've spent the past few years building with AI — real tools, for my own work and for businesses' actual problems, not demos. What I've learned is that AI isn't a wave; it's a tsunami. I started Raven's Quill to help small businesses ride it instead of drowning in it — carefully, honestly, and with the people who work there, never instead of them.
