## About MiMo V2.6 Flash

MiMo-V2.6-Flash is an open-source foundation model developed by Xiaomi. It uses a Mixture-of-Experts architecture with 309B total parameters and 15B activated per token, and a hybrid attention mechanism. It became available in September 2026.

The model accepts text, image, video, and audio input and produces text. Its context window is 1,050,000 tokens and a response can be up to about 131,000 tokens. It supports reasoning, tool calling, and structured outputs. With tool calling, the free-pi agent can read and edit files, run commands, and use free-pi's built-in web search and documentation lookup tools.

It scores 37.9 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, above the default DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731 (34.3).

In free-pi it is free to use with no API key and no card. It counts as about 0.4x usage, so it uses somewhat more of your daily allowance than the default model.

## When to pick it

For tasks that include audio or video as well as images and text, pick MiMo V2.6 Flash. Few free-pi models take audio, and this one uses far less allowance than [Gemini 4 Argon](https://freepi.ai/models/gemini-4-argon), which also accepts audio and video. It is also an open-source model.

For text-only work that should last the day, pick the default [DeepSeek V4 Flash](https://freepi.ai/models/deepseek-v4-flash). For a multimodal model with a larger score, pick [Claude Haiku 5.5](https://freepi.ai/models/claude-haiku-5.5).
