 ## How do Embedded Wallets work?
 
-### High-level architecture
-
-The Embedded Wallet SDKs live solely on the user/application's frontend client and handle the interactions between OAuth providers and the Embedded Wallet network.
-
-The diagram below describes the relationship between the SDKs and integrating applications. It also depicts the difference between the products that power the infrastructure for a developer-friendly integration.

-
-### Wallet management infrastructure
-
-The [wallet management infrastructure](./infrastructure/README.mdx) enhances security by distributing a user's wallet across various key shares, thereby avoiding direct exposure of seed phrases. These key shares form a 'web of trust' and enable wallet management akin to multi-factor account handling. Users employ OAuth logins, trusted devices, and other factors to manage their cryptographic key pairs. Importantly, the complete private keys are not stored anywhere within the wallet infrastructure system, including our databases or any participating nodes.
-
-To create a social login share, users interact with the Embedded Wallets network, where key generation operates via a 5/9 consensus system. This setup guarantees that wallets remain non-custodial, ensuring that neither MetaMask, social login providers, nor any other party holding a key share can claim full ownership.
-
-:::tip managing wallets
-
-For managing wallets, our infrastructure uses various cryptographic techniques such as [Shamir's Secret Sharing](./infrastructure/sss-architecture.mdx), threshold cryptography, and [Multi Party Computation (MPC)](./infrastructure/mpc-architecture.mdx). To learn more about how we manage wallets, please refer to our [Wallet Management and Security of our Infrastructure](./infrastructure/README.mdx).

+### Wallet management infrastructure
+
+The [wallet management infrastructure](./infrastructure/README.mdx) improves security by splitting a
+user's wallet into multiple key shares, which avoids direct exposure of seed phrases. Users combine
+OAuth sign-in, trusted devices, and other recovery factors to access and manage their cryptographic
+keys. The infrastructure is designed so that no single party holds the full private key.
+
+To create an OAuth login share, users interact with the Embedded Wallets network. Key generation
+uses a threshold process that requires multiple participants to contribute shares. This helps keep
+wallets non-custodial, because no single party (including MetaMask or the login provider) can use a
+single share to control the wallet.
+
+:::tip managing wallets
+
+The infrastructure uses [Shamir's Secret Sharing](./infrastructure/sss-architecture.mdx) to split and
+recover wallet keys.
