Xiaomi's new open-source MiMo V2.6 Pro scored 46 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, making it the top-ranked open-source model — just 1 point behind GPT-5.6 Sol and ahead of Qwen3.8-Max, Kimi K3, and GLM-5.3.

On cost it runs about $0.13 per index task; Grok 4.7, which launched the same day with the same 46 score, costs $2.73/task at high reasoning and $3.74/task at xhigh — roughly 20x more.

The fully multimodal model targets complex research, long-horizon reasoning, scientific workflows, and cybersecurity tasks. Xiaomi attributes the gains to a post-training self-improvement system rather than changes to the pre-training foundation. Benchmarks look strong, but real-world developer experience remains to be seen.
