Side-by-side comparison of pricing, 12 benchmarks, and generation speed.
| Metric | Ling 3.0 Tiny | MiMo-V2.5-Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Input ($/M tokens) | $0 | $0.43 |
| Output ($/M tokens) | $0 | $0.87 |
Verdict. MiMo-V2.5-Pro takes the aggregate benchmark matchup 2–0 across 2 categories. Real workloads usually care about a handful of specific tasks — see the per-benchmark table above.
Pricing. Pricing varies significantly between these models — check the table above for the exact per-token rates. Many production workloads actually surface input-token cost (retrieval-augmented prompts, code-context windows), so factor both directions.
Strengths. Ling 3.0 Tiny is strongest on Coding Index (26.5), Intelligence Index (24.5). MiMo-V2.5-Pro leads on Coding Index (60.2), Intelligence Index (42.9).
Speed. On throughput, Ling 3.0 Tiny generates tokens at 175 tok/s versus 59 tok/s — about 67% faster. On time-to-first-token, Ling 3.0 Tiny responds in 2570ms vs 3180ms, which matters most for chat-style UIs.
Provider. InclusionAI and Xiaomi sell to overlapping but distinct developer audiences: InclusionAI tends to ship frontier reasoning models with premium positioning, while Xiaomi often prices more aggressively. Your existing vendor relationships, billing, and SLA preferences may matter as much as the raw numbers above.
Workload cost. Workload scenarios (per million requests at 30M input + 15M output tokens): Ling 3.0 Tiny costs $0.00 ($0/year); MiMo-V2.5-Pro costs $25.95 ($311/year). At a smaller 5M-input/2M-output scale (single-developer tool or prototype): Ling 3.0 Tiny ≈ $0.00/run, MiMo-V2.5-Pro ≈ $3.89/run. At agent/realtime scale (200M input / 100M output per million requests): Ling 3.0 Tiny ≈ $0/run, MiMo-V2.5-Pro ≈ $173/run. Ling 3.0 Tiny becomes more attractive at higher volume — the absolute per-token pricing difference compounds when you ship at scale.
Recommendation. Both models have legitimate use cases — the right answer depends on whether you are optimizing for benchmark ceiling, latency, or unit cost. Start with the cheaper / faster model, evaluate against your specific task, and only switch if the upgrade shows a meaningful lift.
