On-device small language models with multimodality, RAG, and Function Calling


Develop next-gen on-device apps with Google AI Edge's generative AI, new Gemma 3 models, broader model support, and Function Calling to enhance capabilities on Android, iOS, and Web

Paired with our new Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and Function Calling libraries, you have everything you need to prototype and build transformative AI features fully on the edge. Gemma 3 1B’s small footprint allows it to support a wide range of devices and limits the size of files an end user would need to download in their application. We also want to thank the following Googlers for their support in these launches: Advait Jain, Akshat Sharma, Alan Kelly, Andrei Kulik, Byungchul Kim, Chunlei Niu, Chun-nien Chan, Chuo-Ling Chang, Claudio Basile, Cormac Brick, Ekaterina Ignasheva, Eric Yang, Fengwu Yao, Frank Ban, Gerardo Carranza, Grant Jensen, Haoliang Zhang, Henry Wang, Ho Ko, Ivan Grishchenko, Jae Yoo, Jingjiang Li, Jiuqiang Tang, Juhyun Lee, Jun Jiang, Kris Tonthat, Lin Chen, Lu Wang, Marissa Ikonomidis, Matthew Soulanille, Matthias Grundmann, Milen Ferev, Mogan Shieh, Mohammadreza Heydary, Na Li, Pauline Sho, Pedro Gonnet, Ping Yu, Pulkit Bhuwalka, Quentin Khan, Ram Iyengar, Raman Sarokin, Rishika Sinha, Ronghui Zhu, Sachin Kotwani, Sebastian Schmidt, Steven Toribio, Suleman Shahid, T.J.
