Digital Santa Barbara

Santa Barbara is more than just a postcard-perfect getaway. (01) Known for its beaches, wine, and wedding venues, it’s often seen as just a resort town — but there’s a whole other side to it. (02) Every year, over 100 startups launch here, and more than 7,000 businesses call this place home. (03) That’s why we’re building a digital community: to show the real Santa Barbara — bold projects, strong ideas, and the people behind them. This is a movement for those shaping the city from the inside out.

We help entrepreneurs establish a strong digital presence — so that the quality of their online representation matches the quality of their product.

Discover Santa Barbara like a local. Real spots, not tourist traps — from hidden cafes to secret beaches. Curated by locals. Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play.
