On-device intelligence refers to a device's ability to process and analyze data locally using built-in AI and machine learning models, eliminating the need for cloud computing. This approach enhances privacy, speed, and efficiency by minimizing data transmission to external servers. It enables real-time functionalities such as language translation, facial recognition, predictive text, and personalized recommendations while ensuring user data security.
The key technologies powering on-device intelligence include machine learning, the Internet of Things (IoT), and others. Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that allows computers to learn from data and improve task performance without explicit programming. On-device intelligence is applied in various devices, including smartphones and tablets, wearables, personal computers (PCs) and laptops, among others. It serves multiple end users, including consumers, healthcare, retail and e-commerce, the industrial sector, and more.

The on device intelligence market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $49.96 billion in 2024 to $60.14 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.4%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising adoption of smartphones and tablets, the increasing demand for AI-powered features, cost reduction through on-device intelligence, expanding internet penetration, and the growing need for real-time data processing.
The on device intelligence market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $125.17 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.1%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the rise of self-driving vehicles, the increasing adoption of smart devices and the Internet of Things (IoT), the growing demand for personalized and contextual experiences, government initiatives and support, and the expanding adoption of smart homes. Key trends in this period include technological advancements, ongoing research and development, the rising demand for AI-powered features such as facial recognition and augmented reality, growing investments in artificial intelligence, and advancements in sensing and perception technologies.
The increasing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is expected to drive the growth of the on-device intelligence market. IoT devices are physical objects equipped with sensors, software, and connectivity features that allow them to collect, transmit, and exchange data over the internet. Their growing adoption is fueled by advancements in connectivity, declining sensor costs, and widespread use across industries for automation and real-time data insights. On-device intelligence enhances these devices by enabling real-time data processing, reducing latency, improving security, and minimizing reliance on cloud connectivity for faster and more efficient decision-making. For instance, in January 2022, the GSM Association, a UK-based non-profit industry organization, projected that global IoT connections would increase from 15.1 billion in 2021 to 23.3 billion by 2025. As a result, the expanding adoption of IoT devices continues to support the growth of the on-device intelligence market.
Leading companies in the on-device intelligence market are focusing on developing innovative technologies, such as GenAI features, to enhance real-time processing, improve user personalization, strengthen data security, and reduce dependence on cloud computing.
