 # Bering
 
-Bering is a model discovery and contract-producing tool for resilience analysis.
-It consumes trace artifacts and produces canonical `bering-model.json` in
-`BeringResilienceModel` v1.0.0 format for any downstream consumer.
-Sheaft is a reference consumer, not an exclusive target.
+Bering builds a resilience model artifact from trace artifacts. The output artifact is `bering-model.json` in `BeringResilienceModel` v1.0.0 format. Use it in any downstream tooling or analytics pipeline.

+Examples:
+
+- run your own analytics (topology checks, risk scoring, SLO diagnostics)
+- feed the model into simulation tooling
+- simulate failures with [Sheaft](https://github.com/MB3R-Lab/Sheaft) (one possible consumer), for example:
+  ```bash
+  # from sibling Sheaft repository
