Where sources disagree
Across the 13 benchmarks both have, GPT-6.1 Terra leads 8, MiMo-V2.6-Pro leads 5. Every overall index that rates both puts GPT-6.1 Terra ahead.
| Overall index | GPT-6.1 Terra (max) | MiMo-V2.6-Pro | Leader |
|---|---|---|---|
| BenchLeader Index | 65.9 | 63.7 | neck and neck |
| AA Intelligence Index v4.3.2 | 48.1 | 46.3 | GPT-6.1 Terra |
Each publisher runs its own tasks, harnesses and effort settings, so their overall verdicts can differ; BenchLeader reconciles them on one scale. † measured at another effort setting of the same model (the publisher did not test the one compared here).
Price, speed and latency
List prices blended at three input tokens per output token. Per-task prices use the token counts on the methodology page; suite cost is what Artificial Analysis paid to run its whole Intelligence Index.
| Measure | GPT-6.1 Terra (max) | MiMo-V2.6-Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Blended price per 1M tokens | $2.00 | $0.548 |
| Input / output per 1M | $1.00 / $5.00 | $0.440 / $0.870 |
| Cached input per 1M | $0.050 | $0.0036 |
| Price per task: chat reply | $0.0019 | $0.0004 |
| Price per task: summarize a 30-page report | $0.015 | $0.0058 |
| Price per task: code edit | $0.013 | $0.0039 |
| Price per task: agentic coding session | $0.080 | $0.030 |
| Price per task: structured extraction | $0.0030 | $0.0011 |
| Cost to run a full benchmark suite | $0.403 | $0.133 |
| Output speed | 91 tok/s | 56 tok/s |
| Time to first answer | 131.8 s | 38.8 s |
| Time to a complete answer | 137.3 s | 47.7 s |
Per token is not per task: on Artificial Analysis' full suite GPT-6.1 Terra (max) cost $0.403 and MiMo-V2.6-Pro $0.133, because MiMo-V2.6-Pro used about 1.2× as many tokens for the same work.
Each model is compared at its best-ranked reasoning-effort setting. GPT-6.1 Terra (max) scores 65.9 and takes 132 s to its first answer token; GPT-6.1 Terra (xhigh) scores 65.0 in 18 s, GPT-6.1 Terra (high) scores 64.7 in 7 s. MiMo-V2.6-Pro scores 63.7 and takes 39 s to its first answer token. Higher effort means more thinking before the answer: better scores, longer waits and more tokens billed.
