-## Description
-Building UIs for SDLs is challenging because flexibility and modularity make them unpredictable — yet accessibility is essential for **democratisation** of AI-driven scientific discovery.
-
-**IvoryOS** bridges the gap by:
-- Dynamically inspecting initialized Python modules (hardware APIs, high-level functions, or workflows)
-- Automatically displaying functions and parameters in a web UI
-- Allowing users to **design**, **manage**, and **execute** experimental workflows with minimal changes to existing scripts
-- Providing natural language support for workflow design and execution, check [IvoryOS MCP](https://gitlab.com/heingroup/ivoryos-suite/ivoryos-mcp) for more details.
+## What IvoryOS Does
+- Turns Python modules into UIs by dynamically inspecting your hardware APIs, functions, and workflows.
+- Standardizes optimization inputs/outputs, making any optimizer plug-and-play.
+- Provides a visual workflow builder for designing and running experiments.
+- Adds natural-language control for creating and executing workflows, see [IvoryOS MCP](https://gitlab.com/heingroup/ivoryos-suite/ivoryos-mcp) for more details.
