Wedonay.com Report on Mar 7th, Xiaomi Technology officially announced that its mobile AI agent product, Xiaomi miclaw, built on its self-developed large model, is now entering a small-scale, closed beta test. This product, seen by the outside world as Xiaomi's answer to OpenClaw, is currently only available to tech enthusiasts and geek users through an invitation code system for a limited experience.

According to officially released information, the first batch of models supporting the Xiaomi miclaw test includes five models: the Xiaomi 17, Xiaomi 17 Pro, Xiaomi 17 Pro Max, Xiaomi 17 Ultra, and the Xiaomi 17 Ultra Leica Edition. Xiaomi stated that as a technological exploration project, Xiaomi miclaw is still undergoing continuous optimization in terms of stability, power consumption performance, and success rate in complex scenarios. Therefore, it is not recommended for general users to upgrade and experience it on their daily primary devices. Due to potential fluctuations in execution efficiency or occasional failures for some highly complex tasks, the test adopts an invitation code system, requiring an invitation code for both application download and experience.

From a product positioning perspective, Xiaomi miclaw is an AI interaction test product built on Xiaomi's MiMo large model, and it is also the first OpenClaw-like AI Agent application on mobile phones in China. Similar to OpenClaw, Xiaomi miclaw is not a traditional chatbot or voice assistant, but an AI interaction product deeply integrated into the underlying system of the phone as a system application. It can be quickly deployed on mobile devices and conveniently call upon Xiaomi ecosystem devices and system applications, achieving a leap in capability from "understanding" to "execution."

At the technical implementation level, Xiaomi has encapsulated the phone's system capabilities into over 50 structured tools, covering core functions such as communication, calendar, file management, application launching, and device control. Its underlying layer runs a "reasoning-execution loop" engine: after a user inputs a command, the large model autonomously decides which tools to call and what parameters to pass; after the tools execute and return results, the model continues reasoning for the next step until the task is complete. Users can see in real-time which tool the AI is calling and which step it is executing. With user authorization, Xiaomi miclaw can understand users' ambiguous intentions, autonomously call system-level tools and ecosystem services, and chain multiple steps to complete complex tasks. For example, a user only needs to say, "I'm bringing a friend home in half an hour, get the house ready," and the AI can automatically adjust smart lighting, play welcome music, prepare hot water, and even set the environment based on the visiting friend's historical preferences.

Notably, Xiaomi miclaw is designed as a self-evolving system capable of continuous growth. It can autonomously design memory systems, create specialized sub-agents, dynamically integrate external services, and accumulate experience through its memory system, achieving an experience that "understands you better the more you use it." This self-evolution capability distinguishes it from traditional static AI assistants, giving it the potential for continuous iteration and adaptation to users' personalized needs.

Regarding usage security, Xiaomi has implemented multiple designs to protect user privacy. All conversation history, user settings, and skill files are stored locally on the device. Content sent to the cloud is limited to the current conversation messages, voice audio, etc., and is discarded immediately after reasoning, with no persistent storage. For security mechanisms involving sensitive operations, high-sensitivity actions such as sending text messages or creating schedules trigger a pop-up confirmation each time before execution, with a 60-second timeout that automatically rejects the action. The code also does not register any tools related to payments or transfers, design-wise avoiding financial risks without user confirmation.

The launch of Xiaomi miclaw is the latest achievement of Xiaomi's sustained, high-intensity investment in the AI field in recent years. Its technological foundation is Xiaomi's self-developed MiMo large model family. As early as December 2025, Xiaomi announced the open-sourcing of the 309-billion-parameter MiMo-V2-Flash model at a partner conference. Xiaomi Group President Lu Weibing referred to it at the time as "a new language foundation stepping into the Agent era." According to Xiaomi's disclosed strategic plan, the company's R&D investment over the next five years is expected to exceed 200 billion yuan, with approximately 40 billion yuan estimated for 2026 alone, with AI being a core investment direction. Xiaomi has listed "deep integration of AI with the real world" as its core strategy for the next decade and has clearly stated its "All in AI" strategic direction. This limited beta test of Xiaomi miclaw is an important exploration of this strategy's implementation at the terminal product level.
