The SendingStone review

The Raven, with a 0 Challenge Rating, has very low combat abilities, but its high Dexterity and Passive Perception make it an excellent scout and messenger. As an unaligned creature, it doesn't have any particular loyalty to a specific faction or side, making it a versatile and neutral ally. While its low Charisma and Constitution may make it less appealing as a familiar, its intelligence and natural abilities make it a useful tool for characters looking for extra intelligence and reconnaissance on their journeys. Overall, the Raven may not be the most powerful creature, but its unique combination of skills and abilities makes it a crucial asset for any adventuring party.
