+## The Problem: Three Databases for One Search
 
-```bash
-# Store all your configs encrypted in Brainy
-npx cortex init
-cortex config set DATABASE_URL postgres://localhost/mydb
-cortex config set STRIPE_KEY sk_live_... --encrypt

-# The Search Problem Every Developer Faces
-
-**"I need to find similar content, explore relationships, AND filter by metadata - but that means juggling 3+ databases"**
-
-❌ **Current Reality**: Pinecone + Neo4j + Elasticsearch + Custom Sync Logic  
-✅ **Brainy Reality**: One database. One API. All three search types.
-
-## 🔥 The Power of Three-in-One Search
-
-```javascript
-// This ONE query does what used to require 3 databases:
-const results = await brainy.search("AI startups in healthcare", 10, {
-  // 🔍 Vector: Semantic similarity 
-  includeVerbs: true,
-  
-  // 🔗 Graph: Relationship traversal
-  verbTypes: ["invests_in", "partners_with"],
-  
-  // 📊 Faceted: MongoDB-style filtering  
-  metadata: {
-    industry: "healthcare",
-    funding: { $gte: 1000000 },
-    stage: { $in: ["Series A", "Series B"] }
-  }
-})
-// Returns: Companies similar to your query + their relationships + matching your criteria
-```
+**"I need semantic search, relationship traversal, AND metadata filtering - that means 3+ databases"**
 
-**Three search paradigms. One lightning-fast query. Zero complexity.**
+❌ **Current Reality**: Pinecone + Neo4j + Elasticsearch + Custom Sync = Slow, expensive, complex  
+✅ **Brainy Reality**: One blazing-fast database. One API. Everything in sync.

-## ⚙️ Configuration Options
+**That's it. You just built a knowledge graph with semantic search in 8 lines.**
 
-Brainy works great with **zero configuration**, but you can customize it for your specific needs:
+## 🎯 Key Features: Why Developers Choose Brainy
 
-### 🚀 Quick Start (Recommended)
-```javascript
-const brainy = new BrainyData()  // Auto-detects everything
-await brainy.init()              // Zero config needed
+### ⚡ Blazing Performance at Scale
 ```
-
-### 🎯 Specialized Configurations
-
-#### Writer Service with Deduplication
-Perfect for high-throughput data ingestion with smart caching:
-```javascript
-const brainy = new BrainyData({
-  writeOnly: true,        // Skip search index loading
-  allowDirectReads: true  // Enable ID-based lookups for deduplication
-})
-// ✅ Can: add(), get(), has(), exists(), getMetadata(), getBatch()
-// ❌ Cannot: search(), similar(), query() (saves memory & startup time)
+Vector Search (1M embeddings):     2-8ms p95 latency
+Graph Traversal (100M relations):  1-3ms p95 latency  
+Combined Vector+Graph+Filter:      5-15ms p95 latency
+Throughput:                        10K+ queries/second
 ```
 
-#### Pure Writer Service
-For maximum performance data ingestion only:
-```javascript
-const brainy = new BrainyData({
-  writeOnly: true,         // No search capabilities
-  allowDirectReads: false  // No read operations at all
-})
-// ✅ Can: add(), addBatch(), relate()
-// ❌ Cannot: Any read operations (fastest startup)
-```
+### 🌍 Write Once, Run Anywhere
+- **Same code** works in React, Vue, Angular, Node.js, Edge Workers
+- **Auto-detects** environment and optimizes automatically
+- **Zero config** - no setup files, no tuning parameters
 
-#### Read-Only Service
-For search-only applications with immutable data:
-```javascript
-const brainy = new BrainyData({
-  readOnly: true,    // Block all write operations
-  frozen: true       // Block statistics updates and optimizations
-})
-// ✅ Can: All search operations
-// ❌ Cannot: add(), update(), delete()
-```
+### 🧠 Built-in AI Intelligence (FREE)
+- **Neural Import**: AI understands your data structure automatically
+- **Entity Detection**: Identifies people, companies, locations
+- **Relationship Mapping**: Discovers connections between entities
+- **Chat Interface**: Talk to your data naturally (v0.56+)
 
-#### Custom Storage & Performance
-```javascript
-const brainy = new BrainyData({
-  // Storage options
-  storage: {
-    type: 's3',                    // 's3', 'memory', 'filesystem'
-    requestPersistentStorage: true, // Browser: request persistent storage
-    s3Storage: {
-      bucketName: 'my-vectors',
-      region: 'us-east-1'
-    }
-  },
-  
-  // Performance tuning
-  hnsw: {
-    maxConnections: 16,      // Higher = better search quality
-    efConstruction: 200,     // Higher = better index quality
-    useOptimized: true       // Enable disk-based storage
-  },
-  
-  // Embedding customization
-  embeddingFunction: myCustomEmbedder,
-  distanceFunction: 'euclidean'  // 'cosine', 'euclidean', 'manhattan'
-})
-```
+---
 
-#### Distributed Services
-```javascript
-// Microservice A (Writer)
-const writerService = new BrainyData({
-  writeOnly: true,
-  allowDirectReads: true,  // For deduplication
-  defaultService: 'data-ingestion'
-})
+# 🎆 NEW: Talk to Your Data with Brainy Chat!
 
-// Microservice B (Reader) 
-const readerService = new BrainyData({
-  readOnly: true,
-  defaultService: 'search-api'
-})
+```javascript
+import { BrainyChat } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
 
-// Full-featured service

-Brainy automatically detects and optimizes for your environment:
-
-| Environment | Storage | Optimization |
-|-------------|---------|-------------|
-| 🌐 Browser | OPFS | Web Workers, Memory Cache |
-| 🟢 Node.js | FileSystem / S3 | Worker Threads, Clustering |
-| ⚡ Serverless | S3 / Memory | Cold Start Optimization |
-| 🔥 Edge | Memory / KV | Minimal Footprint |
-
-## 🌐 Distributed Mode (NEW!)
-
-**Scale horizontally with zero configuration!** Brainy now supports distributed deployments with automatic coordination:
-
-- **🌐 Multi-Instance Coordination** - Multiple readers and writers working in harmony
-- **🏷️ Smart Domain Detection** - Automatically categorizes data (medical, legal, product, etc.)
-- **📊 Real-Time Health Monitoring** - Track performance across all instances
-- **🔄 Automatic Role Optimization** - Readers optimize for cache, writers for throughput
-- **🗂️ Intelligent Partitioning** - Hash-based partitioning for perfect load distribution
-
-```javascript
-// Writer Instance - Ingests data from multiple sources
-const writer = new BrainyData({
-  storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
-  distributed: { role: 'writer' }  // Explicit role for safety
-})
-
-// Reader Instance - Optimized for search queries
-const reader = new BrainyData({
-  storage: { s3Storage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' } },
-  distributed: { role: 'reader' }  // 80% memory for cache
-})
-
-// Data automatically gets domain tags
-await writer.add("Patient shows symptoms of...", {
-  diagnosis: "flu"  // Auto-tagged as 'medical' domain
-})
-
-// Domain-aware search across all partitions
-const results = await reader.search("medical symptoms", 10, {
-  filter: { domain: 'medical' }  // Only search medical data
-})
-
-// Monitor health across all instances
-const health = reader.getHealthStatus()
-console.log(`Instance ${health.instanceId}: ${health.status}`)
-```
-
-### 🐳 NEW: Zero-Config Docker Deployment
-
-**Deploy to any cloud with embedded models - no runtime downloads needed!**
-
-```dockerfile
-# One line extracts models automatically during build
-RUN npm run download-models
-
-# Deploy anywhere: Google Cloud, AWS, Azure, Cloudflare, etc.
-```
-
-- **⚡ 7x Faster Cold Starts** - Models embedded in container, no downloads
-- **🌐 Universal Cloud Support** - Same Dockerfile works everywhere  
-- **🔒 Offline Ready** - No external dependencies at runtime
-- **📦 Zero Configuration** - Automatic model detection and loading
-
-```javascript
-// Zero configuration - everything optimized automatically!
-const brainy = new BrainyData()  // Auto-detects environment & optimizes
 await brainy.init()
-
-// Caching happens automatically - no setup needed!
-const results1 = await brainy.search('query', 10)  // ~50ms first time
-const results2 = await brainy.search('query', 10)  // <1ms cached hit!
-
-// Advanced pagination works instantly
-const page1 = await brainy.searchWithCursor('query', 100)
-const page2 = await brainy.searchWithCursor('query', 100, {
-  cursor: page1.cursor  // Constant time, no matter how deep!
-})
-
-// Monitor auto-optimized performance
-const stats = brainy.getCacheStats()
-console.log(`Auto-tuned cache hit rate: ${(stats.search.hitRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`)
 ```

+**NO - Brainy actually IMPROVES performance:**
 
-```typescript
-@Component({})
-export class AppComponent {
-  brainy = new BrainyData()
-
-  async ngOnInit() {
-    await this.brainy.init()
-    // Same API as above
-  }
-}
