On-device LLMs in your Flutter app.
No servers. No cloud. Just Dart.
runs in your browser
Everything you need for on-device AI
Multimodal
Vision + audio input with Gemma 4, Gemma3n, FastVLM
Function Calling
Models call your Dart functions — structured tool use on-device
Thinking Mode
See the reasoning chains of Gemma 4, DeepSeek R1 & Qwen3
Agent Skills
Give the model SKILL.md skills it runs itself — JS, native intents, MCP
Speech (STT + TTS)
Transcribe audio and synthesize speech on-device — selectable models, LiteRT C API, fully offline
On-device RAG
Independent RAG with pluggable qdrant-edge or sqlite-vec storage
Hardware Acceleration
CPU/GPU across native targets, plus supported Qualcomm Android and Intel Windows NPUs
Built-in AI
Gemini Nano, Apple Foundation Models, Phi Silica & Chrome Prompt API — zero model download
Pluggable Runtimes
Choose inference, embedding and speech runtimes independently — register only what you need
Opt-in Packages
Core + 11 opt-in packages — agent skills, speech, RAG & more; ship only what you use
Package Skills
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor & Copilot learn the flutter_edge_ai API from skills shipped in the package

Real on-device features — recorded on a phone, not a server.
Platform support matrix
| Platform | Vision | Audio | Embeddings | NPU |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Android | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| iOS | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
| Web | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ | ❌ |
| macOS | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |

NPU support covers supported Qualcomm Snapdragon devices on Android and Intel LunarLake/PantherLake on Windows. iOS GPU runs on Metal on device; the Simulator is CPU-only (256 MB Metal allocation cap).
5 minutes to on-device inference
Register your engines once, install a model, create a chat session — then generate. The same Dart API across all six platforms.
await FlutterEdgeAi.initialize(
inferenceEngines: [LiteRtLmEngine(), MediaPipeEngine()],
embeddingBackends: [LiteRtEmbeddingBackend()],
embeddingTokenizers: [GemmaEmbeddingTokenizers()],
);
await FlutterEdgeAi.installModel(
modelType: ModelType.gemma4,
fileType: ModelFileType.litertlm, // the declared type picks the engine
).fromNetwork('https://.../gemma-4-E2B-it.litertlm').install();
final model = await FlutterEdgeAi.getActiveModel(maxTokens: 2048);
final chat = await model.createChat();
await chat.addQueryChunk(Message.text(text: 'Hello!', isUser: true));
final response = await chat.generateChatResponse();Need step-by-step setup? Read the full guide →
