Xiaomi opens invite-only beta for MiMo Desktop
Xiaomi has opened invitation-only testing of MiMo Desktop, an agentic app that breaks down and carries out multi-step work tasks, and is giving approved testers limited access to two preview models.
Xiaomi announced that its MiMo Desktop client is now in invitation-only testing, with separate application pages for overseas and mainland China users. Approved testers also get free access, for a limited time and with a limited quota, to two preview versions of Xiaomi's next-generation MiMo models: MiMo-X-Pro-Preview and MiMo-X-Flash-Preview.
The page is titled "MiMo-V2.6 Series: 3 New Models Officially Released," but the text names only the two preview models. It does not say what the third model is, explain the V2.6 label, or give any benchmarks, model sizes or pricing.
Xiaomi says MiMo Desktop is built for real work rather than question answering. It can take spreadsheets, images, video, PDFs, audio and even unextracted compressed archives as input. From there it breaks a goal into tasks, calls tools, and produces editable documents, slides, web pages, media, 3D models, apps or software projects. One example shows it controlling Figma through MCP.
Outputs appear as interactive previews inside the session, not static screenshots. Users can select one element of an output and ask for changes to just that part. Every change is saved to a version history that supports comparing drafts and rolling back.
A "Smart" scheduling mode picks the model for each task, sending everyday work to standard models and complex, long-running work to flagship ones. It also chooses between office, code and research agents, can split large jobs across agents for research, planning, execution and review, and supports multiple sessions that work together, each with its own memory and workspace.
Xiaomi calls the beta a way to test the product's limits on long-running tasks and tool use. The announcement text provided ends partway through.
