At AxisPhilly, we plan to go deep on issues, providing original and curated reporting, data analysis and interactive tools to help you understand the issues as well as  forums for you to explore possible solutions. We will tackle issues that are profound as well as prosaic (though crucial to city life).

Our goal is to provide more context, not just more content. We will be less about breaking news and more about news that breaks through. News that breaks through the clutter, tools that break through to understanding, conversation that breaks through to action.

Most important, we let your voice be heard. Rather than just offering comments on articles, we create discussions around issues.

We also are recruiting people who want to be part of our Public Insight Network. Use our Contact Us form to share ideas for new discussions or how we can do better.
