Google has launched Foresight, an experimental and free note-taking app for macOS called Google AI Edge Foresight, which can transcribe meetings and audio files entirely offline without needing an internet connection.
Key Features of the App

On-Device Model Support
The software runs on macOS devices using the company's proprietary on-device EmbeddingGemma 2 model, ensuring that data never leaves the computer.
Ability to Organize Notes
Users can take quick bullet points during a meeting, and the app transforms these short notes into professional texts based on the information in the transcript.
Built-in Assistant and File Linking
Foresight features a built-in assistant that allows users to ask questions about what was discussed in meetings and also enables local files to be linked to the app.
