Two cities, one tightly-knit market

The Twin Cities behave more like one connected metro than two competing ones. A coffee roaster in the North Loop competes with three in Lowertown St. Paul and four in Northeast Minneapolis. A medical spa in Uptown watches Edina and Wayzata in the same competitive set. A real estate brokerage in Eden Prairie tracks agents working all the way to Stillwater. It's not a New York-style density, but the competitive sets cross municipal lines constantly.

A bigger market than it looks

The Twin Cities metro holds about 3.7 million people. Two anchor cities, dozens of distinct suburbs:

  • Edina, Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Plymouth, Maple Grove, Woodbury, Roseville
  • Sixteen Fortune 500 HQs in or near the metro — Target, UnitedHealth, Best Buy, 3M, US Bank, General Mills

That corporate-buyer market is sophisticated, and small services and B2B sellers compete hard for it. Manual tracking doesn't scale. Eight websites, four Google Business profiles, the Star Tribune, MinnPost — every morning. It eats hours owners don't have.

One email instead

MyIntelBrief replaces that hour with a five-minute morning email. We watch what your Twin Cities competitors do — websites, Google profiles, menu and price changes, new hires, local press coverage — and note new information when it appears. Only what's worth knowing. AI-curated, deduplicated, ranked by what's likely to actually move customers.

Built for the verticals that drive the Twin Cities

Twin Cities' small-business economy concentrates in a handful of competitive verticals. We have playbooks for each.

How it works for a Twin Cities business

1. Tell us your business. One sentence — "wine bar in the North Loop" or "estate planning attorney in Edina." We figure out the local market.

2. We find your competitors. AI scans the metro, identifies the 5–10 businesses most likely competing with you, verifies them against Google profiles, and shows you the list. You approve, edit, or replace.

3. We watch them every day. Websites, Google Business profiles, news mentions, social presence, ratings. Anything they change, we catch.

4. You get one email per morning. Only what matters — deduplicated, ranked, with the screenshot or link. Most days takes 90 seconds. Some days catches a competitor before they cut into your weekend traffic.
