 ## About COCONUT
 
-COlleCtion of Open Natural prodUcTs (COCONUT) database is comprised of elucidated and predicted NPs collected from more than 50 open-source datasets, in addition to a web interface that can be used to browse, search, and download the NPs. The COCONUT web can be accessed at the following address: https://coconut.naturalproducts.net.
+COCONUT is an open-access database dedicated to the collection and dissemination of natural products. It aims to provide researchers, scientists, and enthusiasts with comprehensive and easily accessible data on a wide variety of natural compounds. The database includes detailed information on the chemical structures, literature references and sources of these compounds, facilitating research and discovery in the field of natural products.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Extensive Database**: Contains information on thousands of natural products from diverse sources (63).
+- **Chemical Structures**: Provides detailed chemical structures for each natural product, aiding in research and identification.
+- **Search and Filter**: Advanced search and filtering options to find compounds based on specific criteria easily.
+- **Online Submission and Curation**: Allows users to contribute new data, ensuring the database remains current and comprehensive.
+- **API Access**: Provides API access for seamless integration with other tools and databases.
