MiMo-V2.6-Pro is presented as a leading open weights model, released in September 2026 by Xiaomi, which demonstrates strong performance when analyzed across intelligence, speed, and cost relative to other models of similar scale. The model achieved a score of 46 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, positioning it favorably above the median score of 18 among comparable models, suggesting robust reasoning and knowledge capabilities. Performance benchmarks indicate that MiMo-V2.6-Pro operates at a speed of 125.2 output tokens per second, which is notably fast compared to the median output speed for models in this class. The model possesses significant multimodal capabilities, supporting the processing of text, image, speech, and video inputs, and generating text outputs. Furthermore, it features a substantial context window of 1.0 million tokens, enabling it to handle extensive context necessary for complex reasoning tasks. Architecturally, MiMo-V2.6-Pro is a large model, boasting a total of 1.0 trillion parameters, although only 42 billion of these parameters are active during inference, indicating that it operates as a Mixture of Experts (MoE) model. This structure is reflected in its reasoning capacity, as the model utilizes extended thinking or chain-of-thought reasoning to tackle intricate problems before formulating responses. In terms of operational economics, the pricing structure for MiMo-V2.6-Pro is $0.43 per 1 million input tokens and $0.87 per 1 million output tokens. While the input cost is competitive, the output cost is moderately priced relative to the median, reflecting a blended rate that is highly attractive when considering cache hit discounts. The overall evaluation process cost for the Intelligence Index task amounted to $206.66. When compared to the broader landscape of artificial analysis benchmarks, the model's verbosity is slightly high, generating 140 million output tokens during the Intelligence Index evaluation, slightly exceeding the median, which warrants consideration in task-specific deployment strategies. The model is released under the permissive MIT license, which permits commercial use, further enhancing its utility for practical applications. The extensive benchmark suite, which includes evaluations focused on agentic knowledge work, coding, scientific knowledge, and general intelligence, suggests a broad and versatile capability assessment across various domains, including finance, legal, engineering, and mathematics. |
