 > **First-time Use**: On Android, the ML Kit model downloads automatically on first use. The library waits for the download to complete (up to ~15 seconds with retries) before processing. Subsequent calls are instant.
 
 ### Web
-- **Technology**: [@imgly/background-removal](https://github.com/imgly/background-removal-js) running in a **Web Worker**.
-- **Performance**: Zero UI blocking. All processing happens in a background thread.
-- **Implementation**: 
-  - Uses an **Inline Worker** architecture.
-  - Loads the library from CDN (`jsdelivr`) automatically on first use.
-  - **No bundler configuration required**. Works with Metro, Webpack, Vite, etc. out of the box.
+
+1. **Add the Script**: You must add the `@imgly/background-removal` script to your web `index.html`:
+   ```html
+   <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@imgly/background-removal@1.7.0/dist/imgly-background-removal.min.js"></script>
+   ```
+
+2. **Usage**: The library will automatically detect the global `imglyBackgroundRemoval` object.
+
+- **Technology**: [@imgly/background-removal](https://github.com/imgly/background-removal-js) running in a Web Worker (managed by the library).
+- **Performance**: Zero UI blocking.
+- **Output**: Data URL (`data:image/png;base64,...`) or WEBP Blob.
 - **Requirements**:
-  - **Internet Connection**: Required for the first run to download the library and assets (~10MB) from CDN.
   - **CORS**: Images loaded from external URLs must be CORS-enabled (`Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`).
-- **Output**: Data URL (`data:image/png;base64,...`) or WEBP Blob.
 
-> **Note on Local Development**: If you see CSP errors, ensure your development server allows loading scripts from `cdn.jsdelivr.net`.
+> **Note**: The first call will download the WASM model files (~10MB) from the CDN. Ensure your CSP allows `cdn.jsdelivr.net`.
