A new home for your stories

Too long for Instagram.
Too short for YouTube.

Ravens of Odin is the middle path — for the trips, the projects, and the moments that deserve more than a square but don't need a film crew.

Currently in private testing — opening to the public soon

In Norse legend, Huginn and Muninn
Thought and Memory
were the ravens who carried stories back to Odin from every corner of the world.
We built a home for yours.

Raven skulls
A post that scrolls past in seconds.
An algorithm deciding who sees your work.
A feed that owns your content tomorrow.
A profile that looks like everyone else's.
A real place on the web — permanent, yours.
The problem

Your trip deserves more than a square —
and less than a film crew.

You went somewhere worth going. You took 1,400 photos and posted three. The other 1,397 sit in a folder you'll open once, then forget. Instagram is too short to hold the story. A YouTube video is too much — scripts, music licensing, editing weekends you don't have. So the trip stays untold.

Ravens is the middle path. An afternoon of dragging photos onto a page, writing what happened, and pressing publish. A real website on your own domain — no algorithm, no feed, no platform that can take it away. A permanent home for the moments you'll want to find again in ten years.

The editor

Build stories scene by scene.
Publish them in a click.

Drag images onto the canvas. Weave prose around them. Drop in a pull-quote, EXIF metadata, a map, a video. The story editor treats photography like the craft it is — and stays out of your way while you work.

What's inside

Six things we built so you don't have to.

01 — THE STORY EDITOR

A canvas for composition.

Drag, drop, weave. Build cinematic photo essays block by block — paragraphs, images, galleries, maps, EXIF, video. The editor treats every piece as a design decision.

02 — WRITE YOUR WAY

Markdown. HTML. Whatever the page asks for.

Markdown for flowing prose. Raw HTML when you need full control. The editor stays out of the way and lets the work breathe.

03 — TRULY YOURS

Your domain. Your voice. Your permanent link.

Connect your own domain in minutes. The URL in the address bar is yours — not ours, not a platform's. If you ever leave, you take your stories with you, HTML and all.

Free export · Open formats · No lock-in
04 — ON THE GO

Capture it. Tell it. While it's still warm.

The Ravens mobile app publishes from your phone. Upload from the camera roll, write on the train home, publish before the evening is over.

iOS · Android · syncs with desktop
05 — INTEGRATIONS

Lightroom & DaVinci Resolve.

Export a collection or a cut straight to a Ravens story. Your editing workflow, continuous to the published page.

06 — FOLLOW & DISCOVER

A reading list worth returning to.

Follow the travellers and photographers whose work moves you. No ads, no recommendations chasing engagement — just stories.

Who it's for

Four kinds of makers.
One place to publish.

Ravens is shaped for the people whose work doesn't fit a feed — writers of long essays, photographers who care about metadata, designers who want real HTML, and teams who want a single site anyone can edit.

For storytellers

Your story, more than a caption.

Long-form photo essays, travel journals, and the tales worth remembering past the scroll.

For photographers

Craft, treated like craft.

EXIF, location, per-image reactions, camera pages — built around the frame.

Read more →
For designers

Full control. Hand it over.

Raw HTML, custom CSS, fragments — give clients an editor they'll actually use.

Read more →
For organizations

For your team. For your audience.

One site, shared across your org, with a visual editor anyone can pick up.
