 ### Schema
 
-The main documented way to specify the schema of a graph is by using `TypedDict`. However, we also support [using a Pydantic BaseModel](../how-tos/graph-api.md#use-pydantic-models-for-graph-state) as your graph state to add **default values** and additional data validation.
+The main documented way to specify the schema of a graph is by using a [`TypedDict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.TypedDict). If you want to provide default values in your state, use a [`dataclass`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/dataclasses.html). We also support using a Pydantic [BaseModel](../how-tos/graph-api.md#use-pydantic-models-for-graph-state) as your graph state if you want recursive data validation (though note that pydantic is less performant than a `TypedDict` or `dataclass`).
 
 By default, the graph will have the same input and output schemas. If you want to change this, you can also specify explicit input and output schemas directly. This is useful when you have a lot of keys, and some are explicitly for input and others for output. See the [guide here](../how-tos/graph-api.md#define-input-and-output-schemas) for how to use.
