Teen founder, rural Idaho
A 16-year-old built a Raspberry Pi prototype (SuperBot) that became a Blackfoot, Idaho software company. Local business press and entrepreneurship shows pick this up because the origin is specific, not generic SaaS.
Boilerplate, company facts, founder bio, and assets for journalists, podcasts, and reseller-community interviews.
Botifex is all-in-one reselling software for online sellers and flippers. Founder Rhev Williams built the first version at 16 in rural Idaho on a Raspberry Pi — a personal tool to beat manual marketplace refresh. That prototype became Botifex LLC, headquartered in Blackfoot, Idaho. The product monitors six marketplaces, scores deals, helps resellers list inventory, and tracks profits in one workspace. There is no corporate venture funding. Payments run through Stripe.
Rhev Williams — Founder & CEO, Botifex LLC · Blackfoot, Idaho
Rhev Williams started Botifex at 16 in rural Idaho on a Raspberry Pi after wasting hours manually refreshing marketplaces. Five prototypes in twelve days shaped the approach that became the product. He is still CEO and senior developer, based in Blackfoot, Idaho, and still ships for resellers rather than enterprise buzzwords.

“If a feature does not help you find, research, list, or track inventory faster, it does not ship.”
“Botifex started because manually refreshing marketplaces was wasting hours every week.”

Most coverage treats marketplace monitors as the whole category. Botifex's story is Find → Research → List → Track in one product — useful for reseller-community podcasts that want a founder interview, not only a feature demo.
No corporate funding. The company was shaped by the same refresh-race constraint its users still have. Good for small-business and bootstrap-startup interviews.
