Google releases AI Edge Foresight, an offline meeting transcription app for macOS

Google has released Google AI Edge Foresight, a free experimental note-taking app that transcribes meetings and audio files entirely offline on macOS using its on-device EmbeddingGemma 2 model. Like Granola and Wispr Flow, it summarizes meetings and turns shorthand bullet points into polished notes, and includes a built-in assistant that can answer questions about what you heard and reference local files you connect. Google says your files, meeting audio, and notes never leave your computer, and the app is currently only optimized for Macs with Apple Silicon.
