MiMo-V2.6-Pro

xiaomi/mimo-v2.6-pro

Xiaomi's fast model, a million tokens at a very low price

MiMo-V2.6-Pro is Xiaomi's model for everyday work at volume. It answers fast, about 2 seconds in our tests, and reasons only briefly. On Tchavi it takes a 1M-token window, reads text and images, and writes up to 131K tokens per reply.

It calls tools, returns JSON and accepted every request parameter we tested. It is one of the most affordable models in the catalogue and is available on the free plan. Think of it for summaries, bulk extraction, translation, support replies and agents that chain many cheap steps.

On Tchavi you pay with mobile money, no international bank card and no KYC, with one API key for 80+ models. OpenAI-compatible: swap the base URL, keep your SDK. Your credits never expire.

Frequently asked questions

MiMo-V2.6-Pro or DeepSeek V4 Flash?

Both target volume at a low price. DeepSeek V4 Flash (model: "deepseek-v4-flash") takes text only; MiMo-V2.6-Pro also reads images. Test both on your own task.

Is it available on the free plan?

Yes. It belongs to the budget group, which the free plan can use.

Does it read images and PDFs?

Images, yes. PDFs and other documents, no: it takes text and images in and returns text.

Which request parameters does it accept?

We tested stop, frequency and presence penalties, seed, n, reasoning_effort, tools and JSON schema: all were accepted. Three return an error instead: logprobs, parallel_tool_calls set to false, and verbosity — none of its hosts supports them.

How do I call MiMo-V2.6-Pro with my OpenAI SDK?

Swap the base URL for Tchavi's, use your Tchavi key and set model: "mimo-v2.6-pro" on /v1/chat/completions. The rest of your code stays the same.

Can I pay with mobile money, without a bank card?

Yes. Top up your Tchavi account with Orange Money, MTN MoMo, M-Pesa or another mobile money operator. No bank card is needed. Credits land as soon as the payment is confirmed and are deducted as you use them.

Is the API compatible with OpenAI's?

Yes. Keep your current OpenAI SDK, just change the base URL to Tchavi's (shown in the API tab) and use your Tchavi key. The rest of your code stays the same.

API

import Tchavi from '@tchavi/sdk';

const client = new Tchavi({ apiKey: 'API_KEY' });

const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: 'mimo-v2.6-pro',
  messages: [
  {
    "role": "user",
    "content": "Hello!"
  }
],
});

console.log(response.choices[0].message.content);
console.log('Credits used:', response.tchavi.credits_used);

API parameters

Every parameter this model accepts on the API. Check the SDK for full typings.

modelRequired
string

ID of the chat model (e.g. `mimo-v2.6-pro`).

messagesRequired
Array<{ role, content }>

Conversation messages. Each item has a `role` (system/user/assistant) and a `content` that's either a plain string or an array of content blocks (`text`, `image_url`, `document_url`).

temperature
number
Default: 1

Sampling temperature between 0 and 2. Higher values = more random.

max_tokens
integer

Maximum number of tokens to generate in the response.

max_completion_tokens
integer

OpenAI alias for `max_tokens`. Either field works; if both are sent, `max_completion_tokens` wins.

stream
boolean
Default: false

If true, partial message deltas are streamed as Server-Sent Events.

tools
Array<{ type, function }>

Function-calling toolbox. Pass an array of `{ type: "function", function: { name, description, parameters } }`. Returned tool calls land in `choices[].message.tool_calls`. Only models with `supportsTools: true` accept this.

tool_choice
"auto" | "none" | { type, function }

How the model picks among tools: `"auto"` (default), `"none"` to force a plain text reply, or `{ type: "function", function: { name } }` to force a specific tool. Only with `supportsTools: true`.

response_format
{ type: "json_object" | "text" }

Constrain the output. Pass `{ type: "json_object" }` to force valid JSON (the model still needs a JSON instruction in your prompt). Only models with `supportsJsonMode: true` honour this.

Show all parameters (19)
top_p
number
Default: 1

Nucleus sampling: only tokens in the top `top_p` probability mass are considered.

seed
integer

Integer seed for deterministic output. The same seed + identical request yields the same completion when supported by the provider. OpenAI honours it; Anthropic ignores.

n
integer
Default: 1

Number of completions to generate in one call. Defaults to 1; each extra completion is billed.

stream_options
{ include_usage?: boolean }

Streaming options, e.g. `{ "include_usage": true }` to receive a final SSE chunk with usage counts. Effective only when `stream: true`.

stop
string | string[]

Up to 4 sequences where the API will stop generating further tokens.

frequency_penalty
number
Default: 0

Between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values penalize tokens that have appeared frequently.

presence_penalty
number
Default: 0

Between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values encourage the model to talk about new topics.

user
string

End-user identifier passed to the upstream provider for abuse / moderation tracking. Should be stable per end-user.

logit_bias
Record<string, number>

Per-token logit bias `{ "<tokenId>": <-100..100>, ... }`. OpenAI-specific; Anthropic ignores silently.

messages[].content[].image_url
string

Attach an image on a user message. Pass a content block `{ "type": "image_url", "image_url": { "url": ... } }`. PNG / JPEG / WebP, up to 4 per request. Only models with `supportsImageInput: true` accept this block (e.g. `gpt-4o`, `claude-opus-4-7`).
