+  <p>The Benefits Studio is a product accelerator inside the federal government.
+    We collaborate with benefits programs and the people they serve to build and
+    scale shared tools that reduce burden within the social safety net.
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    As a part of GSA’s <a href="https://tts.gsa.gov/">Technology Transformation Services (TTS)</a>, the Studio is uniquely
+    positioned to work between and across agencies and programs, to make it easier and
+    cheaper for programs with the same challenges to use the same tools.
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    We focus on benefits programs first, because we believe solving problems for people
+    who face the highest challenges when interacting with the government will result in
+    solutions that serve everyone else well, too.
+  </p>
+  <p class="margin-bottom-4">
+    <strong>The Studio’s first product offering is <a href="/">Notify.gov</a></strong>, a text message service that helps government agencies at all levels more effectively communicate with the people they serve.
+  </p>
+  <p class="font-body-lg">We’re currently exploring two new product spaces:</p>
+  <ul>
+    <li><strong>Better Document Submission:</strong> How might we enable simple digital submission and document processing for benefits agencies?</li>
+    <li><strong>Automated Enrollment Checks:</strong> How might we improve how enrollment information is shared across benefit programs, especially where enrollment in one program provides partial or full eligibility for another program?</li>
+  </ul>
+  <p class="margin-bottom-4">If you’re interested in providing feedback on where we should go next, reach us at <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected].</a></p>
