AI your competitors
already use. We make
it simple.

Your competitors are already using AI to book jobs while they sleep, post to social media without lifting a finger, and capture leads 24/7. We help small businesses get those same tools — in plain English, at a flat rate.

What we do

Three things. One edge.

Rain Design Labs helps small businesses adopt AI before their competitors pull further ahead. We layer in social media that runs on autopilot and professional web design that closes the deal.

AI made simple.

Chatbots that book appointments, texters that reply to missed calls, helpers that work overnight. Your competitors are already running these. We set them up for you — no buzzwords, no tech degree required.

Social on autopilot.

AI-drafted posts, captions, and scheduling built around your business. Show up consistently on Instagram and Facebook without spending your lunch break staring at your phone.

Design that connects.

Websites and logos that look great and work even better. Fast, mobile-friendly, and built to bring you customers — not just compliments.

AI + social media, in plain English

So that’s what AI can do for my shop.

No buzzwords. Just little assistants quietly handling the boring bits — booking jobs, posting to social, texting missed callers — while you do what you actually love.

  • 01
    Books appointments 24/7
    Shows your calendar, takes the booking, sends the confirmation — even at 11pm when you’re off the clock.
  • 02
    Replies to missed calls
    Auto-texts back the moment you miss one: “Thanks for calling — what do you need?” No lead left behind.
  • 03
    After-hours chatbot
    Answers hours, prices, and directions when you’re closed — so customers don’t bounce to a competitor.
  • 04
    Writes social posts for you
    AI drafts your weekly Instagram and Facebook content. You review, tweak, and publish in minutes — not hours.
  • 05
    Turns photos into captions
    Snap a pic of today’s special or a finished job. AI writes the caption and hashtags, ready to post.
  • 06
    Schedules your content
    Posts go out at the right time automatically, so your feed stays active even when you’re heads-down on the job.
  • 07
    Scans reviews for issues
    Flags any 1–3 star review the moment it lands so you can respond fast and protect your reputation.

Website + SEO

A site that looks good and shows up when people search.

We build clean, fast websites that make a great first impression — then we do the research to make sure your business shows up when someone in Skagit County searches for what you offer.

Web design

Built to convert, not just look good

Every page has a job: make people trust you, then make it dead simple to contact you. We keep that in focus from the first sketch to the final handoff.

  • Loads fast — we target under 2 seconds
  • Works great on every phone, not just desktop
  • Clear call to action on every single page
  • Professional design that fits your brand
  • You can edit it yourself — we show you how
Local SEO system

We study your competitors before we touch your site.

Most web agencies hand you a site and walk away. We run an 8-step local SEO system and research your top 3 local competitors — then build a 90-day plan that actually moves the needle.

  • 01
    Google Business Profile audit
    Category selection, attributes, photos, description — the details that determine where you land in local search.
  • 02
    Competitor research
    We look at your top 3 local competitors and find the gaps you can win without outspending them.
  • 03
    Review strategy + GBP posts
    Steady reviews and regular posts signal trust to Google — and to every customer reading them.
  • 04
    90-day execution plan
    A clear roadmap of what we’re doing and why — not a pile of vague “best practices.”

How it works

Three steps. That’s it.

No long contracts, no jargon, no surprise invoices. The whole process is built around how busy small-business owners actually work.

01

We grab coffee

We come to your shop, or meet you wherever’s easy. About an hour. No laptop, no pitch — just a chat about your business and what would actually help.

1 hour · our treat
02

We build it

We send you drafts as we go and you tell us what to change. Repeat until it’s right. You only pay when you’ve seen it and you’re happy.

1–2 weeks
03

You go live

We hand it over, walk you through editing it yourself, and stick around for questions. With a Care Plan, we quietly keep things humming.

Forever

About us

Built by your neighbor, with twenty years of AI & tech experience.

Rain Design Labs started after twenty years split between the military and corporate tech — where AI tools like these were already standard practice for the companies I worked with. After all that, I moved to Anacortes to share what actually works with the businesses down the street.

I’m not here to sell buzzwords. The plumber I called when our pipes burst, the café where I grab my Saturday coffee, the realtor who helped us find our place out toward Skyline — they deserve the same tools the big guys use. We make that happen, in plain English, at a price that makes sense.

— James W. Jameson Founder, Rain Design Labs
What if I already have a website?
We’ll look at it for free. Sometimes a tune-up is cheaper than a rebuild — we’ll tell you straight, and we’ll go from there.
I don’t know anything about AI. Is that okay?
Absolutely. We show you a working demo first, using your business as the example. If it isn’t actually useful for your shop, we don’t build one. No buzzwords required.
How long does it really take?
Most websites go live in two weeks once we agree on the price. Logos take about a week. The AI helper adds another week, give or take.
Do you do hosting?
Yes. The Care Plan ($99/mo) includes hosting, daily backups, monthly tweaks, and we pick up the phone when you call.
What if I’m not in Skagit County?
We mostly work with the surrounding counties, such as Whatcom, Island, Snohomish, Kitsap, and Jefferson. We have a representative in King and Pierce counties as well. If you’re nearby, let’s talk — we’ll come to you for the coffee chat.
What if I don’t like what you build?
You don’t pay until you’ve seen it and you’re happy. If we can’t get there, you walk away owing nothing.
Don’t let them get further ahead

Your competitors are reading this too.
Are you next?

Let’s grab coffee — your shop, Penguin, Adrift, wherever you like. We’ll talk through exactly which AI tools fit your business, what social content would look like, and what it would cost. No contract, no pitch, no pressure.
