 ## 1. What This Project Is
 
-Company website for **CODEDDEVS TECHNOLOGY LTD** (RC: 9426867).
+Official company website for **CODEDDEVS TECHNOLOGY LTD** (RC: 9426867).
 
 - **URL:** codeddevs.com (placeholder until domain is confirmed)
 - **Audience:** Investors, press, and partners — NOT merchants, buyers, or end users
-- **Purpose:** Establish credibility, introduce the company and team, showcase twizrr, share company updates via blog
+- **Purpose:** Present CODEDDEVS as a serious, product-driven technology company. Communicate what we are building, what's coming next, and how our products are evolving. Share product updates, releases, version changes, roadmaps, and announcements.
 - **Tone:** Professional, minimal, text-first — like Anthropic.com or Stripe.com
+- **This is NOT a portfolio site.** Do not treat it like a project showcase or personal portfolio. It is an official company website structured the way established tech companies present themselves.
 - **This is NOT the twizrr product site.** twizrr.com is a completely separate codebase and repo. Every mention of twizrr on this site links OUT to twizrr.com.

 ## 1. What This Project Is
 
-Company website for **CODEDDEVS TECHNOLOGY LTD** (RC: 9426867).
+Official company website for **CODEDDEVS TECHNOLOGY LTD** (RC: 9426867).
 
 - **URL:** codeddevs.com (placeholder until domain is confirmed)
 - **Audience:** Investors, press, and partners — NOT merchants, buyers, or end users
-- **Purpose:** Establish credibility, introduce the company and team, showcase twizrr, share company updates via blog
+- **Purpose:** Present CODEDDEVS as a serious, product-driven technology company. Communicate what we are building, what's coming next, and how our products are evolving. Share product updates, releases, version changes, roadmaps, and announcements.
 - **Tone:** Professional, minimal, text-first — like Anthropic.com or Stripe.com
+- **This is NOT a portfolio site.** Do not treat it like a project showcase or personal portfolio. It is an official company website structured the way established tech companies present themselves.
 - **This is NOT the twizrr product site.** twizrr.com is a completely separate codebase and repo. Every mention of twizrr on this site links OUT to twizrr.com.
