+
+[Conductor](https://conductor.is) is a real-time, fully-typed API for **QuickBooks Desktop** (sometimes called QuickBooks Enterprise). In just a few lines, get real-time access to fetch, create, or update _any_ QuickBooks Desktop object type and receive a fully-typed response.
+
+⭐ **Follow our [Quickstart guide](https://docs.conductor.is/quickstart) to get started.**
+
+This repository is for the Node.js (TypeScript/JavaScript) library. For Python, see [conductor-python](https://github.com/conductor-is/quickbooks-desktop-python).
 
 ## Installation
 
 ```sh
-npm install conductor-node
+npm install conductor-node@beta
 ```
 
+This version of the library is in beta, but it **_is_ stable and ready for production use**. We merely have a few more endpoints to migrate before prompting all existing users to update.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> If migrating from the old `conductor-node` package, see the [migration guide](https://docs.conductor.is/qbd-api/upgrade-node).
+
+## Key features
+
+- **Any data type**: Query, create, or update any QuickBooks Desktop data type.
+- **Real-time**: Get real-time updates on your QuickBooks Desktop data. No queues, no jobs, no cache layer -- just direct access to the data.
+- **Modern API**: JSON-based REST API, replacing the old XML-based SOAP model.
+- **Typed client libraries**: Fully typed libraries in Node.js and Python with autocomplete, inline docs, and type validation for endpoints, parameters, and responses.
+- **Request handling**: Invisibly manages queues, timeouts, retries, and pagination.
+- **Auto-pagination**: Automatically handles paginated responses to retrieve complete datasets.
+- **Multi-company support**: Connects to multiple QuickBooks Desktop company files.
+- **Validation**: Sanitizes and validates all inputs and outputs.
+- **Unified error handling**: Streamlines error handling across the QuickBooks stack.
+- **Authentication flow UI**: Simple UI for securely connecting QuickBooks Desktop accounts.
+- **Dashboard**: UI to monitor and manage your QuickBooks Desktop connections and data.
+- **Error resolution**: Detailed guides and instructions for resolving errors and handling edge cases.
