How we price
Order
Providers are listed cheapest input rate first, then by output rate, a tie going to the creator's own listing. A provider that lists the model without a published rate sits at the end.
Prices
Base-tier, on-demand rates in USD per 1M tokens, converted at ECB reference rates where a provider publishes in another currency. Cached-input and batch rates show only where a provider publishes them. "Cheapest" marks the one provider with the lowest input and output pair; a tie wears no badge.
Cost
Input rate times the input tokens plus output rate times the output tokens, at the monthly volume set above the table. Cached-input, batch, long-context and reasoning-token billing are not modelled.

Heads up: Base-tier, on-demand rates per 1M tokens; cached, batch and long-context tiers excluded. A provider may serve a shorter context or a quantized build than the creator's release. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
Estimated cost to self-host
MiMo-V2.6-Flash needs about 172 GB of GPU memory at 4-bit with 32K context. The cheapest rental that fits is 8× RTX 4090 at about $2,592 a month.
That costs the same as roughly 16B tokens a month on Xiaomi MiMo's API. Self-hosting is more expensive below that volume.

$2,592 | 16B tokens /mo |
| 8-bit FP8 / INT8 | 312 GB |

Estimates based on median on-demand rates for Nvidia GPUs. Memory is weights plus KV cache for one request, using FP8 KV cache where supported and FP16/BF16 otherwise. Break-even assumes a 5:1 input-to-output ratio. No guarantee of runtime support, usable performance, or that a matching quantized build exists. Pricing methodology.

Common questions
What is MiMo-V2.6-Flash good for?
Xiaomi positions it for high-frequency calls and large-scale tasks in professional workflows, with the same modalities and context as the Pro tier. Weights are MIT licensed, and at 309B parameters self-hosting takes a multi-GPU node.
When is MiMo-V2.6-Flash not a good fit?
Work that needs image or audio output, since it answers in text only. Xiaomi publishes no knowledge cutoff for it, and self-hosting is out of reach of a single GPU.
What is the cheapest way to run MiMo-V2.6-Flash?
Hosted, unless you push serious volume. Xiaomi MiMo charges $0.14 in / $0.28 out per 1M tokens. The cheapest rental that fits is 8x RTX 4090 at $2,592 a month, which costs the same as about 16B tokens a month on that API.
Can I self-host MiMo-V2.6-Flash?
Yes. The weights are MIT licensed. At 4-bit it needs about 172 GB of GPU memory, which starts at roughly $2,592 a month on the cheapest rental that fits.
