Xiaomi Launches Beta Test for MiMo Desktop AI Application
Xiaomi has officially opened invitation-based beta testing for its MiMo Desktop AI application, granting approved users free limited-time access to its next-generation models, MiMo-X-Pro-Preview and MiMo-X-Flash-Preview. The application enables users to generate interactive UI previews directly within chat conversations and autonomously operate web browsers to execute complex work tasks. The launch marks Xiaomi's expansion into autonomous desktop AI agents capable of operating software environments and web tools directly. By combining dynamic UI artifact previews with automated browser actions and intelligent model routing, Xiaomi is positioning MiMo Desktop to compete with existing AI agent systems. MiMo Desktop accepts various input formats—including tables, images, PDFs, audio, and archives—without requiring pre-formatting or local frontend setups. It also dynamically routes tasks to different models or agents based on cost and complexity, while utilizing the browser to fill forms, retrieve data, and automatically validate generated web assets.
