Xiaomi (小米) opens free MiMo Claw trial — one‑click deploys OpenClaw “Lobster” (龙虾) with Kingsoft (金山) office integration

What Xiaomi launched

Xiaomi (小米) has opened a free trial of Xiaomi MiMo Claw, a private‑assistant product that can one‑click deploy the OpenClaw "Lobster" (龙虾) setup and plugs into an integrated productivity ecosystem. The release accompanies Xiaomi’s rollout of three new large models — MiMo‑V2‑Pro, Omni and TTS — which the company says are already available through MiMo Studio, Xiaomi miclaw, Kingsoft Office and the Xiaomi Browser via connectors such as OpenClaw, OpenCode, KiloCode, Blackbox and Cline. Xiaomi describes the trial as time‑limited and free for users to explore.

Features, trial rules and third‑party integration

MiMo Claw is presented as a multi‑skill assistant for document generation, news retrieval, content creation, development acceleration and data analysis, built on the MiMo‑V2‑Pro base and the multi‑modal MiMo‑V2‑Flash‑Omni model. Xiaomi advertises “zero‑cost” deployment of OpenClaw’s Lobster and a suite of prebuilt skills to tackle complex tasks. The company also highlights deep integration with Kingsoft’s (金山) WebOffice for in‑browser preview and editing of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files — reportedly covering more than 95% of common document types.

IT之家 (ITHome) tested the service and reported that each user session is limited to about 30 minutes of free use; it has been reported that session files are stored temporarily during use and are deleted after the trial ends. The trial is being promoted across Xiaomi’s consumer apps and enterprise‑facing tools, making it easy for existing users to try the models without provisioning infrastructure.

Why it matters

Why does this matter outside China? The quick, polished integration of locally developed large models with productivity tools illustrates how Chinese tech firms are racing to fold AI into everyday apps and workflows. Against a backdrop of Western export controls and chip restrictions that have prompted greater domestic self‑reliance, companies such as Xiaomi and Kingsoft are building end‑to‑end offerings that reduce dependence on foreign stacks. For consumers it’s a low‑friction demo; for rivals and partners it’s another sign of how fast China’s AI productization is moving.
