Google has introduced a new offline-first iOS application, Google AI Edge Eloquent, designed for real-time voice dictation. This innovative tool transcribes speech into polished text without subscription fees, making it an attractive option for users. As reported by 9to5Google, the app displays a live waveform during recording and cleans up transcriptions by removing fillers like “um” and “ah.” Notably, it features AI editing modes, allowing users to convert speech into bullet points or rewrite it in a professional tone. Additionally, a history feature tracks previous recordings and metrics such as speaking speed. Privacy is prioritized with on-device processing, ensuring audio data remains secure. Competing against subscription-based dictation tools like Wispr Flow and Willow, Google AI Edge Eloquent stands out for its free, flexible functionality. However, it is currently only available on iOS, leaving Android users awaiting a version tailored for their platform.
