- Xiaomi has launched a closed beta for its system-level AI agent Miclaw, allowing users to control phones and Mijia IoT devices via natural language.
- Featuring device-cloud privacy computing and self-evolving capabilities, the product aims to capitalize on the recent OpenClaw boom and seize the mobile AI gateway.

Xiaomi announced on Friday the launch of a small-scale closed beta for its mobile AI agent, Xiaomi Miclaw, aiming to seize the next-generation interaction gateway.
Built on Xiaomi's MiMo large model, the new AI interaction product marks a critical step from conversational capabilities to system-level execution, aiming to ride the momentum of the recently viral OpenClaw.
Operating as a system application on mobile devices, Xiaomi Miclaw has packaged phone system functions into over 50 core capabilities and ecological services.
It can deeply invoke mobile applications and control over one billion IoT devices connected to the Mijia ecosystem through a complete Mijia protocol client.
Users only need to issue a vague natural language command, and the agent can autonomously select system-level tools based on context to complete complex cross-device operations.
The product employs a three-tier intelligent memory management system that automatically retains key decision points and dynamically compresses redundant interactions to save computing power.
Equipped with self-evolving capabilities, Xiaomi Miclaw allows users to continuously expand its system functions by creating sub-agents and executing sandbox scripts.
As user frequency increases, it accumulates interaction experience through a local memory system, thereby providing highly personalized, in-depth services.
Regarding data security and privacy protection, Xiaomi pledged not to use users' daily interaction data to train its underlying artificial intelligence large models.
All chat histories, user configurations, and skill files are securely stored locally on the device, with core privacy data processed via device-cloud privacy computing to prevent leaks, according to Xiaomi.
Furthermore, when the agent performs highly sensitive operations such as sending text messages or creating schedules, it requires manual user confirmation before each execution, automatically rejecting the action if it times out.
The current closed beta is invitation-only for tech geeks and only supports five designated high-end smartphone models, including the Xiaomi 17 series.
As the product remains in a frontier exploration stage, the company advises invited users to test it in a controlled environment and make comprehensive data backups in advance.
Xiaomi plans to optimize its stability and power consumption during the beta period and will connect more third-party applications via the MCP standard and open SDKs in the future.
