+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+[//]: # (Write a short description of the model and how to use it with the `from_pretrained` method.)
+
+ReLiK is a lightweight and fast model for **Entity Linking** and **Relation Extraction**.
+It is composed of two main components: a retriever and a reader.
+The retriever is responsible for retrieving relevant documents from a large collection,
+while the reader is responsible for extracting entities and relations from the retrieved documents.
+ReLiK can be used with the `from_pretrained` method to load a pre-trained pipeline.
+
+Here is an example of how to use ReLiK for **Relation Extraction**:
+
+```python
+from relik import Relik
+from relik.inference.data.objects import RelikOutput
+
+relik = Relik.from_pretrained("sapienzanlp/relik-relation-extraction-nyt-large")
+relik_out: RelikOutput = relik("Michael Jordan was one of the best players in the NBA.")
+```
+
+
+    RelikOutput(
+      text='Michael Jordan was one of the best players in the NBA.', 
+      tokens=Michael Jordan was one of the best players in the NBA., 
+      id=0, 
+      spans=[
+        Span(start=0, end=14, label='--NME--', text='Michael Jordan'), 
+        Span(start=50, end=53, label='--NME--', text='NBA')
+      ], 
+      triplets=[
+        Triplets(
+          subject=Span(start=0, end=14, label='--NME--', text='Michael Jordan'), 
+          label='company', 
+          object=Span(start=50, end=53, label='--NME--', text='NBA'), 
+          confidence=1.0
+          )
+      ], 
+      candidates=Candidates(
+        span=[], 
+        triplet=[
+                  [
+                    [
+                      {"text": "company", "id": 4, "metadata": {"definition": "company of this person"}}, 
+                      {"text": "nationality", "id": 10, "metadata": {"definition": "nationality of this person or entity"}}, 
+                      {"text": "child", "id": 17, "metadata": {"definition": "child of this person"}}, 
+                      {"text": "founded by", "id": 0, "metadata": {"definition": "founder or co-founder of this organization, religion or place"}}, 
+                      {"text": "residence", "id": 18, "metadata": {"definition": "place where this person has lived"}},
+                      ...
+                  ]
+              ]
+          ]
+      ),
+    )
+
