A mysterious artificial intelligence model, which surfaced anonymously on a developer platform last week under the codename “Hunter Alpha,” is none other than the second iteration of Chinese tech major Xiaomi's MiMo AI model. The company launched its self-developed MiMo-V2 series of large AI models (succeeding the 2025 release of Xiaomi MiMo) in a surprise release, marking an aggressive entry into the “agent era” of AI.
The MiMo-V2 lineup includes three models: MiMo-V2-Pro, MiMo-V2-Omni, and MiMo-V2-TTS. While some native integrations in apps like Xiaomi Browser and Kingsoft Office are limited to China, the models are browser-based and accessible worldwide through Xiaomi MiMo Studio or the official API website.
MiMo-V2-Pro
The MiMo-V2-Pro is the flagship model that targets complex workflows with minimal human input and focuses on logic reasoning and task planning. It features 1 trillion total parametres and uses a mixed-attention architecture to support a massive 1M token context window.
Tested as “Hunter Alpha,” it achieved a 75.7 average score on the Claw-Eval benchmark (top three globally, behind Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.6) and scored 49 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index (second in China, eighth worldwide, beating models like Gemini 3 Flash and Grok 4.20). The model reportedly matches the coding capabilities of Claude Opus 4 but at lower costs.
MiMo-V2-Omni
The MiMo-V2-Omni handles image, video, audio, and text inputs. Codenamed “Healer Alpha,” it topped the PinchBench leaderboard and reportedly beat competitors like Claude Opus 4.6 and Gemini 3 Pro in speech reasoning (scored 94 on BigBench Audio), audio understanding (69.4 on MMAU-Pro), and video future event forecast (66.7 on FutureOmni). It can self-plan and execute across modalities.
MiMo-V2-TTS
This speech synthesis model is trained on audio data, which makes it capable of emotional transitions, mid-sentence tone shifts, singing, and synthesis of regional dialects like Sichuan, Cantonese, Henan, and Taiwanese.
