Google Just Killed Every Transcription App

👑 Premium Community: https://mrc.fm/premium 🔗 Download Eloquent (free): https://mrc.fm/eloquent I'm testing Google's brand new Eloquent app live and it might be the end of paid transcription apps for a lot of you. It dropped on Mac this week, it's completely free, and it runs 100% on-device. No cloud. No internet. No subscription. It transcribes you, strips out every "um" and "uh," cleans up your half-finished sentences, and even lets you dictate edit commands like "turn this into an executive summary." It's powered by Google's new Gemma 4 12B model running locally on your machine. In this live I'm opening it cold for the first time, putting it head to head with the apps you're probably paying for, and seeing whether the offline angle actually holds up in real use. 00:00 Intro to Google Eloquent 01:01 App Installation & Setup 02:14 Downloading the Local Model 02:47 Testing Gemma 4 12B in LM Studio 04:56 First Local Dictation Test 06:34 Recording & Audio Cleanup Features 07:56 Generating Summaries with "Key Points" 09:37 File Transcription Speed Test 11:35 Summarizing Long Text Live 12:48 Controlling External Apps with Dictation 13:57 Testing Gemma 4 Vision Capabilities 14:54 Performance Benchmarks & Language Support 17:19 Testing Multi-Language Transcription 19:34 Region Restrictions & iOS Details 21:01 Summarizing Live Viewer Comments on Device 22:51 Multi-Platform Live Streaming Setup 26:45 Eloquent Settings & Model Selection (2B vs 12B) 28:39 Voice-Prompted Vibe Coding with Claude Code 34:38 Live-Coding UI Updates with Voice 36:48 Summary of Eloquent's Standout Features 39:07 Thumbnail Critique with Gemma 4 12B 41:20 Applying AI Feedback in ChatGPT Image Creator 44:11 Future Plans for AI-Automated Content Pipelines 47:54 Local AI Recommendations for Beginners 51:36 Smart Home Control & Browser AI Agents 56:10 Mac Customization: Built-In Screen Zoom Tip 57:20 Stream Wrap-up & Viewer Setup Spotlight
