 # Enduro
 
-Enduro is a tool designed to automate the processing of transfers in multiple
-Archivematica pipelines. It's part of a preservation solution that is being
-used by the [National Health Archive (NHA)] and the [National Center for Truth
-and Reconciliation (NCTR)].
+Enduro is a new application under development by Artefactual Systems. Originally created 
+as a more stable replacement for Archivematica’s [automation-tools][automation-tools] 
+library of scripts, it has since evolved into a flexible tool to be paired with 
+preservation applications like [Archivematica][archivematica] to provide initial ingest 
+activities such as content and structure validation, packaging, and more.
 
-It's a **proof of concept** at its very early stages. It aims to cover our
-client's needs while exploring new and innovative ways to build durable and
-fault-tolerant workflows suited for preservation.
+While still under development, Enduro is already being used in production at several large 
+cultural heritage organizations, including the [National Health Archive (NHA)] and the 
+[National Center for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR)]. Enduro aims to cover our clients' 
+needs while exploring new and innovative ways to build durable and fault-tolerant 
+workflows suited for preservation. It is also a new space for experimentation and research 
+to build a distributed system that enables users to run failure-oblivious and durable 
+preservation workflows.
