Google releases a new local-first Granola competitor

Google launched offline Mac note-taker AI Edge Foresight, using on-device EmbeddingGemma 2 and Gemma 4.

Google released Google AI Edge Foresight, a Mac app positioned as a local-first competitor to AI note-taker Granola. It can run fully offline on Apple Silicon, using the 740-million-parameter EmbeddingGemma 2 model for meeting notes and a Gemma 4 assistant for questions. The app offers a split view for shorthand and AI notes, transcripts, and a knowledge base from PDFs, Docs, Office files, text, Markdown, and bookmarks. Google previously shipped an experimental local dictation tool; this release may mainly showcase Gemma’s on-device models.
