 The `mergekit-moe` script supports merging multiple dense models into a mixture of experts, either for direct use or for further training. For more details see the [`mergekit-moe` documentation](docs/moe.md).
 
+## Evolutionary merge methods

+See `docs/evolve.md` for details.

+## ✨ Merge in the Cloud ✨
+
+We host merging on Arcee's cloud GPUs - you can launch a cloud merge in the [Arcee App](app.arcee.ai). Or through python - grab an ARCEE_API_KEY:
+
+`export ARCEE_API_KEY=<your-api-key>`
+`pip install -q arcee-py`
+
+```
+import arcee
+arcee.merge_yaml("bio-merge","./examples/bio-merge.yml")
+```
+
+Check your merge status at the [Arcee App](app.arcee.ai)
+
+When complete, either deploy your merge:
+
+```
+arcee.start_deployment("bio-merge", merging="bio-merge")
+```
+
+Or download your merge:
+
+`!arcee merging download bio-merge`
+
