Overview

EmbeddingGemma 2, released by Google on October 6, 2026, extends the original EmbeddingGemma beyond text into images, audio, and video, mapping all four modalities into a shared 768-dimensional embedding space. Built on the Gemma 4 architecture and released under Apache 2.0, it is designed for on-device, offline semantic search and retrieval so that local file and media search no longer depends on a cloud round trip.

Key features

  • 740M total parameters: 270M text-only core plus optional 170M vision and 300M audio encoders
  • Unified 768-dimensional embedding space across text, image, audio, and video
  • Apache 2.0 open-weight license
  • ~191MB active RAM for text-only inference on a Google Pixel 11 Pro; ~567MB for the full multimodal suite
  • 9.92-point improvement on the MTEB Code benchmark over prior Gemma embedding models

Use cases

  • On-device semantic search across photos, audio, and video
  • Local codebase indexing and developer agent retrieval
