web-based

Accessed through browsers

Web-based describes software, services, or applications accessed through a web browser rather than installed on a device: a web-based email client, web-based project management tools.

The term distinguishes online services from traditional desktop programs.

Web-based applications run on remote servers, making them accessible from any device with internet access.
