Website design & AI strategy
From websites to AI, we help the businesses that keep your community running turn technology into an advantage, not a headache.
What we do
A real, working website built around your actual services and reviews, not a generic template with your name typed in.
Most AI advice is overhyped, or a pitch for one tool. We learn how your business runs, find two or three realistic ways AI can help, then put them to use.

Otter Collective Studio is 10/10 incredible. From the beginning of helping me navigate building a website for my small business - their process was thorough, their communication was prompt and detailed, and the attention to every corner of my website is beyond anything I could have dreamt up myself. If you are looking for an incredible website, affordably maintained, and amazing people to work with you intentionally every step of the way - Otter Collective is your best bet. I truly cannot say enough good things about my experience.
Maryann Nicole/Abide Home & Co., Moore, SC
We just used Jacob and Lily for our business website and couldn’t be happier with the experience! They walked us through each step of the process and explained everything in terms we understood. They were patient with us in all the changes we wanted made and did video calls for portions to make sure we did everything correctly. Highly recommend this husband and wife team for anyone looking to have a website built or any other technology needs for their business.

Love what they do! So kind and so efficient. They did a website for me and now I have something that I am proud to share and it looks so professional. Highly recommend to anyone!

Who we are
We're Jacob and Lily Rigmaiden. Jacob comes from software, Lily from client relations and healthcare, and together we build and run everything at Otter Collective Studio.
We both grew up in small business families. Jacob's dad runs an oil industry company, and Lily's parents built businesses around GPS tracking and medical devices. We know the long hours a small business takes, and how much a good reputation and a trusted relationship are worth.
That's the care we bring to your business. We handle the technology, from your website to AI, so you can stay focused on what you do best.
Website, AI strategy, or both. Tell us about your business and we'll get back to you.
