EmbeddingGemma 2
Google has released EmbeddingGemma 2, a lightweight, multimodal model designed for on-device use. It supports text, image, audio, and video processing while maintaining privacy and low latency for developers.
Why it matters
This model enables advanced AI features like local semantic search and RAG pipelines on consumer hardware without requiring cloud connectivity.
EmbeddingGemma 2 is the most capable model for on-device multimodal embeddings, natively mapping combinations of text, images, audio, and video into a unified embedding space.

We introduced EmbeddingGemma last year to provide a lightweight option for high-quality text embeddings, to help your apps organize, search, and connect information directly on consumer hardware. The developer community’s response blew past our expectations. With more than 20 million downloads, builders have used it to power smarter on-device search tools and privacy-first retrieval augmented generation (RAG) pipelines.
