Credentio is a newly released, open-source C++ library from Google that allows developers to integrate high-performance, local-first validation of C2PA Content Credentials into their client and server applications. By processing assets entirely locally with a highly optimized memory footprint, the library delivers instant validation verdicts for multi-gigabyte media files without incurring cloud latency, bandwidth costs, or data privacy risks. The library currently features deep manifest parsing alongside configurable trust list integration, and is available now on Google Source with future plans to support full credential generation and embedding.

Deploying secure, real-time Edge AI on Raspberry Pi is now simplified using LiteRT and lightweight Gemma open models. LiteRT optimizes CPU and GPU performance, delivering fast token speeds for models like Gemma4, enabling real-time local reasoning for robotics. Developers can quickly convert, quantize, and run these models using the lightweight LiteRT CLI tool. Support for Hailo AI accelerators is also coming very soon.

We're excited to introduce LiteRT.js, the newest member of the LiteRT family! LiteRT.js is our powerful solution for running machine learning models directly in the browser, extending Google's cross-platform edge AI runtime to the web. Built for JavaScript developers, LiteRT.js delivers state-of-the-art ML model inference performance on WebGPU and upcoming WebNN, with a fallback to WebAssembly for CPU. This post provides a quick tour of LiteRT.js and gives web developers everything they need to get started.

This post introduces three architectural patterns designed to integrate Model Context Protocol (MCP) Apps and Agent-to-User Interface (A2UI) to solve the tradeoff between highly custom iframe environments and native, declarative rendering. By combining these approaches, developers can serve native-feeling UIs directly over MCP servers, embed complex and stateful iframe apps securely inside declarative views, or inject generative UI components into legacy systems. Ultimately, these hybrid frameworks empower engineering teams to deliver secure, performant, and brand-consistent agentic user experiences tailored to their specific project constraints.

Google is enhancing Sign in with Google by introducing new OIDC standard claims—specifically auth_time and amr (Authentication Methods Reference) to provide developers with deeper session metadata. These updates allow verified apps to verify the "freshness" of a user's login and the specific authentication methods used (such as MFA or hardware keys), enabling more dynamic, risk-based access controls. By leveraging these federated identity signals, platforms can better prevent account takeover and fraud while implementing granular security policies like step-up authentication for sensitive actions.

Google DeepMind’s Gemma 4 12B model brings agentic, multimodal AI capabilities to everyday laptops with 16GB of RAM, enabling local data processing and visual insight generation. Users can leverage this model on macOS through the Google AI Edge Gallery for dynamic Python code execution and visualization, as well as via Google AI Edge Eloquent for completely offline voice dictation and text editing. Additionally, developer workflows are enhanced by the LiteRT-LM CLI's new serve command, which creates an industry-compatible local endpoint to power fully-local AI tools and agents.

Google has announced the new Google Pay & Wallet Developer MCP server, an open-standard tool designed to securely connect AI development assistants and IDEs with real-time API and account context. The server allows developers to remain within their development environment to search official documentation, validate Wallet pass definitions, check integration status, and manage merchant accounts. Ultimately, this integration aims to reduce friction and accelerate development workflows by minimizing context switching and providing up-to-date, grounded AI support.

Google Pay is evolving for "agentic commerce" by introducing the Universal Commerce Protocol and a new MCP server that allows AI agents to manage integrations and analyze trends. New Android updates introduce dynamic callbacks for seamless express checkouts and extend payment support into social media apps via WebViews. Additionally, the platform is launching cross-device biometric authentication and new transaction signals to help merchants reduce friction and optimize processing costs.
