 ## Model description
 
-More information needed
+The model is a binary text classifier using 'sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2' and fine-tuned on text sourced from national climate policy documents.
 
 ## Intended uses & limitations
 
-More information needed
+The classifier assigns a class of 'Unconditional' or 'Conditional' to denote the strength of commitments as portrayed in extracted passages from the documents. The intended use is for climate policy researchers and analysts seeking to automate the process of reviewing lengthy, non-standardized PDF documents to produce summaries and reports. 
+
+Due to inconsistencies in the training data, the classifier performance leaves room for improvement. The classifier exhibits reasonably good training metrics (F1 ~ 0.85), balanced between precise identification of true positive classifications (precision ~ 0.85) and a wide net to capture as many true positives as possible (recall ~ 0.85). When tested on real world unseen test data, the performance was subptimal for a binary classifier (F1 ~ 0.5). However, testing was based on a small out-of-sample dataset containing it's own inconsistencies. Therefore classification may prove more robust in practice.
