Ambit is redefining how people in the Twin Cities stay informed, connected, and engaged with their local community. At a time when traditional social platforms prioritize entertainment, algorithms, and viral content over real information, Ambit offers a refreshing alternative: a digital space designed to support the real people, institutions, and businesses that shape everyday life across the Twin Cities. Instead of misinformation, noise, or content suppression, Ambit prioritizes clarity, connection, and meaningful participation.

‍

Built on the belief that community engagement begins with trusted information, Ambit helps residents of the Twin Cities discover what’s happening around them—emerging local news, new business openings, neighborhood events, and updates from public officials. The platform empowers users to get involved, stay informed, and build a stronger sense of belonging. For young adults especially, Ambit serves as a gateway back into civic engagement, providing an approachable bridge to the conversations that shape the Twin Cities community.

Ambit was founded by Chuck Peters, a former Tech Professional practice who advised Big Tech companies on creating safer digital experiences. After witnessing how large platforms deprioritized local news, amplified misinformation, and left local journalists struggling, he saw a gap between what communities needed and what existing tools were built to do. At the same time, his deep involvement in the St. Paul community made it clear that residents were losing access to local stories, trusted voices, and meaningful ways to engage. Ambit was born from that tension—a founder-led, independently operated platform built to support local news, protect community dialogue, and use technology in service of the people it impacts.

‍

Ambit goes beyond information-sharing—it builds community. Small businesses can showcase their work, organizations can reach local audiences, journalists can earn revenue for valuable reporting, and public officials can communicate transparently with their constituents. As the Twin Cities evolve, Ambit provides a digital space that strengthens offline relationships rather than replacing them. With Ambit, staying connected to the Twin Cities becomes simple, meaningful, and grounded in local truth—because local community deserves a platform built for it.
