-# Tax-Brain
+# Tax-Brain
+
+Tax-Brain is a Python package that wraps multiple economic models in one easy
+to use interface.
+
+## Disclaimer
+
+Tax-brain is currently under development. Users should be aware that the model
+components and API could change significantly. There is currently no guarantee
+of accuracy and the code should not yet be used for publications or research
+purposes. Until there is an initial stable release, continuous refactoring
+should be expected.

+# Tax-Brain Road Map
+
+## Near-Tear
+
+The first goal of the Tax-Brain project is to wrap the [Tax-Calculator](https://www.pslmodels.org/Catalog/Tax-Calculator.html)
+and [Behavioral-Responses](https://www.pslmodels.org/Catalog/Behavioral-Responses.html)
+packages. We also want to provide an interface for COMP that will mimic the
+current capabilities of [TaxBrain](https://www.ospc.org/taxbrain/).
+
+## Long-Term
+
+The next models to be incorporated into Tax-Brain will be (in no particular order):
+* [B-Tax](https://www.pslmodels.org/Catalog/B-Tax.html)
+* [OG-USA](https://www.pslmodels.org/Catalog/OG-USA.html)
+* [Business-Taxation](https://github.com/PSLmodels/Business-Taxation)
