+# tifsep - The incredibly fast search engine proxy
+
+tifsep ia a metasearch engine that provides very fast search results
+by working on the individual packets of the search results instead
+of slowly waiting, parsing, validating, sorting, and then finally
+sending the results to the user.
+
+Even without HTTP/3 support currently*, tifsep can yield results within
+300ms, which is faster than most search engines.
+
+*HTTP/3 support is coming soon!
+
+**tifsep is currently in early development.**
+
+If you'd like to test it out and provide early feedback, please do so!
+
 ## Ideas
 
 * HTTP3 support
