 As MedCAT v2 is still in early release, we do not currently have any models publically available.
 You can still use models for v1, however (see the [README](https://github.com/CogStack/cogstack-nlp/blob/main/medcat-v2/README.md) there).
 
-If you wish you can also convert the v1 models into the v2 format (see tutorial (TODO + link)).
