Google has launched a new AI dictation app called “Google AI Edge Eloquent,” designed to operate offline by utilizing AI models directly on user devices. The app transcribes speech while removing filler words and correcting mid-sentence errors, transforming unstructured speech into polished text.
Currently, the app is available exclusively on iOS, but a version for Android may be in development. This development positions Google against competitors like Wispr Flow and SuperWhisper in the offline AI dictation space.
The app downloads AI models directly to the device, allowing for real-time transcription that does not require cloud connectivity. Users can choose different output formats, including “Key points,” “Formal,” “Short,” and “Long,” and have the option to enable cloud processing for enhanced text cleanup using Google’s Gemini service.
A custom dictionary feature allows users to manually add jargon or import terms from Gmail. The app also learns vocabulary over time, improving its accuracy for names and technical terms. Additionally, features include tracking word count and transcription speed, as well as searching through past recordings.
Keyboard integration is anticipated to be added to the iOS app soon, enhancing user experience. References to possible future Android support have been noted in the app’s description on the Apple App Store, further indicating Google’s plans to expand its offering.
The app exemplifies the growing trend of offline AI technology, reinforcing Google’s commitment to providing sophisticated tools for voice typing and dictation. As the landscape for these applications evolves, Google may enhance its lead in the market with future updates and feature expansions.
