Xiaomi
corporateXiaomi (HKG: 1810) is a global technology company founded in 2010 by Lei Jun, known for smartphones, IoT devices, and the Xiaomi SU7 electric vehicle (360K+ delivered in ~21 months, outselling Tesla Model 3 in China). The Xiao AI voice assistant (100M+ MAU) and HyperOS cross-device operating system underpin Xiaomi's "Human × Car × Home" ecosystem strategy, connecting phones, vehicles, and smart home devices through AI.
The MiMo Team represents Xiaomi's push into frontier AI, led by Luo Fuli, recruited from DeepSeek (reportedly at a salary of "tens of millions of yuan") where he was a key contributor to DeepSeek-V2 and DeepSeek-R1. The team of 63+ researchers has rapidly produced the MiMo model series: MiMo-7B (May 2025, surpassing OpenAI o1-mini on math/code), MiMo-V2-Flash (309B MoE, December 2025), and MiMo-V2-Pro (1T+ parameters, March 2026). MiMo-V2-Pro was revealed to be the mysterious "Hunter Alpha" model that appeared anonymously on OpenRouter, widely misattributed to DeepSeek V4.
Xiaomi also has an emerging robotics program including CyberOne (humanoid) and CyberDog (quadruped), with foundation models driving embodied AI across the "Human × Car × Home" ecosystem.
