Google quietly launched an AI dictation app that works offline
Google on Monday quietly released an offline-first dictation app called “Google AI Edge Eloquent” on iOS to take on the likes of Wispr Flow, SuperWhisper, Willow, and others.
In the app, you can see the live transcription, and when you hit pause, the app automatically filters out filler words like “um” and “ah” and polishes the text. Below the transcript are options like “Key points,” “Formal,” “Short,” and “Long” to transform the text.
You can also turn off the cloud mode to use local-only processing.
(When cloud mode is on, the app uses cloud-based Gemini models for text cleanup. ) The Google AI Edge Eloquent can import certain keywords, names, and jargon from your Gmail account, if desired. Plus, you can add your own custom words to the list. The app displays the history of the transcription session and lets you search through all of them as well. It can show you words dictated in the last session, your words-per-minute speed, and the total number of words spoken.
Unlike standard dictation software that transcribes stumbles and filler words verbatim, Eloquent utilizes AI to capture your intended meaning. It automatically edits out ‘ums,’ ‘uhs,’ and mid-sentence self-corrections, outputting clean, accurate prose,” the company’s App Store description reads.
(We have reached out to Google for more information and will update the story if we hear back. ) According to the description, Eloquent offers “seamless Android integration,” where it can be set as users’ default keyboard for system-wide access across any text field.
