-* faasd is a static Golang binary
+* faasd is a single static Golang binary, which runs on Linux with systemd
 * uses the same core components and ecosystem of OpenFaaS
 * uses containerd for its runtime and CNI for networking
-* is multi-arch, so works on Intel `x86_64` and ARM out the box
-* can run almost any other stateful container through its `docker-compose.yaml` file
+* is multi-arch, so works on Intel `x86_64` and Arm out the box
+* runs stateful containers through its `docker-compose.yaml` file like Grafana, MongoDB, InfluxDB, or Postgres, etc
 
 Most importantly, it's easy to manage so you can set it up and leave it alone to run your functions.
