Google AI Edge Foresight
Google's experimental on-device macOS meeting note-taker, running EmbeddingGemma 2 and Gemma 4 locally on Apple Silicon.
Overview
Google released AI Edge Foresight around October 11, 2026, a free experimental macOS app that takes meeting notes and answers questions from a personal knowledge base entirely on-device. You jot shorthand during a call and the app expands it into fuller notes from the live transcript, capturing both microphone and system audio so it works with any meeting platform. It pairs EmbeddingGemma 2 for retrieval with a Gemma 4 assistant, with a choice of Gemma 4 E4B (default) or the larger 12B on first launch. Google says audio, transcripts, and files never leave the device, and it can run offline on Apple Silicon.
