 - When possible, release models and data under permissive licenses with clear data provenance.
 
 ## Focus Areas
-- **Language & Speech:** ASR, TTS, translation, and language models for African languages; paired with datasets and evaluation suites.
+- **Language & Speech:** Open LLMs, ASR and TTS models for African languages; paired with datasets and evaluation suites.
 - **Geospatial & Environment:** Remote sensing pipelines, urban growth and electrification mapping, biodiversity acoustics, and environmental monitoring.
 - **Evidence informed Decision Support:** Tools that help public institutions analyze feedback, plan services, and monitor programs.
-- **Data Infrastructure:** Curated corpora, annotation guidelines, and evaluation sets to support the above areas.
 
 ## Openness & Responsible Use
 We publish artifacts that can be audited and reproduced. Each release includes intended use, limitations, and, where applicable, data collection notes and licensing. Users are responsible for complying with local laws, data protection rules, and ethical review processes.
 
-## Known Limitations
-Models and datasets may underperform outside their documented languages, regions, or domains. Biases may exist due to data coverage. Always validate for your setting before deployment in high-stakes contexts.
