-You know that mass of code you inherited? The one where you spend 20 minutes grep-ing just to find where authentication happens? Where you're scared to change anything because you don't know what might break?
+## The Problem
+
+You know the feeling. Day one on a new codebase. Deadline in two weeks.
 
-**OpenCodeIntel fixes that.**
+You need to find "where authentication happens" but the function is called `validateSessionToken()`. Grep for "auth" and you get nothing. You spend 20 minutes clicking through files, afraid to touch anything because you don't know what might break.
 
-Search your code by what it *does*, not what it's named. Ask for "error handling" and find it—even when the function is called `processFailure()`.
+Traditional code search matches text, not meaning. You have to already know what you're looking for to find it.

-## See it in action
+## The Solution
 
-| You search for... | It finds... |
-|-------------------|-------------|
-| `"authentication logic"` | `validateJWT()`, `checkSession()`, `authMiddleware.ts` |
-| `"where we handle payments"` | `stripe/checkout.ts`, `processRefund()`, `PaymentService` |
-| `"error handling"` | `processFailure()`, `onError()`, `catch` blocks across the codebase |
+OpenCodeIntel understands your code the way you do. Search by what code *does*, not what it's named.
+
+```text
+You search: "authentication logic"
+It finds:   validateSessionToken(), checkJWT(), authMiddleware.ts
+```
+
+```text
+You search: "where we handle payments"  
+It finds:   stripe/checkout.ts, processRefund(), PaymentService
+```
+
+```text
+You search: "error handling"
+It finds:   catch blocks, onError(), processFailure()
+```
 
 No regex. No exact matches. Just describe what you're looking for.

+## Features
+
+### Semantic Code Search
+Search by meaning, not keywords. Find that function even when you don't know its name.
 
-**Dependency Graph** — See how your files connect. One glance shows you the architecture.
+### Dependency Graph  
+Visualize how your files connect. Understand the architecture at a glance.
 
-**Impact Analysis** — About to change `auth.ts`? Know exactly what breaks before you touch it.
+### Impact Analysis

-**Code Style** — Understand your team's patterns. snake_case or camelCase? How are errors handled?
+### Code Style Intelligence
+Understand your team's patterns. snake_case or camelCase? How are errors handled? Match conventions instantly.
 
-**Works with Claude** — Connects as an MCP server. Your AI assistant finally understands your codebase.

 ## Quick Start
 
+### Hosted (Fastest)
+
+Go to [opencodeintel.com](https://opencodeintel.com), connect your GitHub, and start searching in under a minute.
+
+### Self-Hosted
+
 ```bash
 git clone https://github.com/OpenCodeIntel/opencodeintel.git
 cd opencodeintel
 
 cp .env.example .env
-# Add your API keys
+# Add your OpenAI + Pinecone API keys
 
 docker compose up -d
 ```
 
-Open http://localhost:3000. That's it.
+Open [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000). Done.

+## Why I Built This
+
+I got tired of grep.
+
+Every time I joined a new project or inherited a codebase, I spent hours just figuring out where things lived. The original authors were gone. The docs were outdated. And I was scared to change anything because I couldn't see what depended on what.
+
+I wanted code search that actually understood what code does. Not pattern matching on text. Something that could answer "where do we handle user sessions?" without me already knowing the answer.
+
+OpenCodeIntel is the tool I wish I had. It's open source because I think every developer deserves to understand their code, not just those at companies with dedicated platform teams.
