 ## What is Dexto?
 
-Dexto is a universal agent interface for building agentic apps—software that understands natural language and takes real-world actions. It orchestrates LLMs, tools, and data into persistent, stateful systems with memory, so you can rapidly create AI assistants, copilots, and context-aware apps that think, act and feel alive.
+Dexto is a universal intelligence layer for building collaborative, context-aware AI Agents & agentic apps. It orchestrates LLMs, tools, and data into persistent, stateful systems with memory, so you can rapidly create AI assistants, digital companions & copilots that think, act and feel alive.
+
+Dexto combines a configuration-driven framework, robust runtime, and seamless developer experience so you can build, deploy, and iterate on your agents easily.
+
+- **Framework** – Define agent behavior in YAML. Instantly swap models and tools without touching code.
+- **Runtime** – Execution with orchestration, session management, conversation memory, and multimodal support.
+- **Interfaces & Tooling** – Native support for CLI, Web, APIs, and a TypeScript SDK.
 
 #### With Dexto, you can build:
 
 - **Autonomous Agents**  - Agents that plan, execute, and adapt to user goals.
 - **Digital Companions** - AI assistants & copilots that remember context and anticipate needs.
-- **Multi-Agent Systems**  - Architect agents that collaborate, delegate, and solve complex tasks together.
 - **MCP Clients** - Connect multiple tools, files, APIs, and data via MCP Servers.
+- **MCP Servers** - Dexto Web UI and MCP playground help you to easily test your own MCP servers.
+- **Multi-Agent Systems**  - Architect agents that collaborate, delegate, and solve complex tasks together.
 - **Agent-as-a-Service** – Transform your existing SaaS products and APIs into dynamic, conversational experiences.
 - **Agentic Applications** – Integrate Dexto as a reasoning engine to power interactive, multimodal, AI-native applications.
