-## What is Intlayer?
+## Why Intlayer over alternatives?
 
-**Intlayer** is an innovative, open-source internationalization (i18n) library designed to simplify multilingual support in modern web applications.
+Compared to main solutions like `astro-i18n` or `i18next`, Intlayer is a solution that comes with integrated optimizations such as:
 
-With Intlayer, you can:
+<AccordionGroup>
 
-- **Easily manage translations** using declarative dictionaries at the component level.
-- **Dynamically localize metadata**, routes, and content.
-- **Ensure TypeScript support** with autogenerated types, improving autocompletion and error detection.
-- **Benefit from advanced features**, like dynamic locale detection and switching.
+<Accordion header="Full Astro coverage">
+
+Intlayer is optimized to work perfectly with Astro by offering **multilingual routing**, **sitemap**, and all the features needed for scaling internationalization (i18n).
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion header="Bundle size">
+
+Instead of loading massive JSON files into your pages, load only the necessary content. Intlayer helps **reduce your bundle and page sizes by up to 50%**.
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion header="Maintainability">
+
+Scoping your application's content **facilitates maintenance** for large-scale applications. You can duplicate or delete a single feature folder without the mental burden of reviewing your entire content codebase. Additionally, Intlayer is **fully typed** to ensure your content's accuracy.
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion header="AI Agent">
+
+Co-locating content **reduces the context needed** by Large Language Models (LLMs). Intlayer also comes with a suite of tools, such as a **CLI** to test for missing translations,**[LSP](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/lsp.md)**, **[MCP](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/mcp_server.md)**, and **[agent skills](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/agent_skills.md)**, to make the developer experience (DX) even smoother for AI agents.
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion header="Automation">
+
+Use automation to translate in your CI/CD pipeline using the LLM of your choice at the cost of your AI provider. Intlayer also offers a **compiler** to automate content extraction, as well as a [web platform](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_CMS.md) to help **translate in the background**.
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion header="Performance">
+
+Connecting massive JSON files to components can lead to performance and reactivity issues. Intlayer optimizes your content loading at build time.
+
+</Accordion>
+

+
+More than just an i18n solution, Intlayer provides an **self-hosted [visual editor](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_visual_editor.md)** and a **[full CMS](https://github.com/aymericzip/intlayer/blob/main/docs/docs/en/intlayer_CMS.md)** to help you manage your multilingual content in **real-time**, making collaboration with translators, copywriters, and other team members seamless. Content can be stored locally and/or remotely.
