Found 2 urgent emails. One's from your landlord about the lease renewal. I'll check back in an hour and nudge you if it's still unread.

💡
Top insightBeyond chatting, roughly 40% put Mira to work on a real task. Search leads by far, while connecting external tools is still the frontier.

Reminders remain the smallest slice of what people do with Mira. We think the bottleneck is onboarding, not demand. Tool connections tell the same story: most people lean on search and media, and only about 1 in 250 active users connects to an external service like Gmail or Calendar. Yet those connections are exactly what unlock Mira's most powerful, action-taking use cases.

WHAT GETS CREATED INSIDE TELEGRAM

310,000 images, videos and tracks, and still counting

AI image generation leads by far, but the format mix keeps broadening.

  • Images81%
  • Video13%
  • Music6%

All of it is made right in the chat, with zero setup. No separate creative app, no export step.

Creators don't stop at generating. They connect the tools they publish with: Canva and Figma for the visuals, Google Slides for decks, Instagram and YouTube for distribution, and Discord to keep the community together.

FROM AI ASSISTANT TO AI OPERATOR

The real story of H1: Mira doesn't just answer, it acts

The most powerful use case is connecting Mira to external tools and letting it act inside them.

Top insightMost users never connect a single tool, and that's the biggest gap between what Mira can do and what people actually use.
WHAT PEOPLE TEACH MIRA TO DO

40K+ people have already built at least one skill

A skill is a routine you describe once, and Mira runs it from then on.

What's interesting is that people aren't adopting templates. They're creating their own skills. Over the last 30 days, 99.9% of active skills were user-created rather than built by us.

And what they're creating isn't mostly work. It's routine. Motivation and morning briefs lead by a wide margin. Then come habit trackers, tarot readings, birthday reminders, and language lessons. Email triage is the only work-related skill in the top list.

💡
Top insightThe most popular skills are proactive, recurring routines. The demand for proactive automation is already there. The challenge is making it easier to discover and set up.

GROUPS IN TELEGRAM

Mira isn't just a 1:1 assistant anymore

People have added Mira to 175,000 group chats, from family catch-ups to communities to business spaces. Friends and family make up the biggest share by far at 67.9%, followed by communities at 20.7% and business chats at 11.4%.

Inside those chats, Mira settles debates, answers the group's questions, cracks jokes, and breaks the ice with games. It acts less like a tool and more like a teammate everyone can call on.

💡
Top insightGroup chats are a powerful way to win new users. People watch Mira work in a group, then start using it one-on-one themselves.
just got back online, 300 unread here 😳 what did I miss

NOT ONE FRONTIER MODEL IN THE TOP-5

What Mira actually runs on

Across 460 billion tokens processed on OpenRouter, enough to make Mira a top-3 personal AI agent worldwide, the biggest names in AI barely show up. No GPT-5, no Claude, no Gemini anywhere near the top. Instead, roughly 95% of everything Mira does runs on open-weight models.

The media tells the same story. Most images come from ByteDance's Seedream and OpenAI's gpt-image-2, with Google's Nano Banana close behind. And for video, Mira leans heavily on the open-weight WAN 2.2, ahead of both Kling and Seedance.

WHAT'S NEXT

The trends we think will define H2 2026

Not something we measured. This is our bet on where agentic AI is headed, and where we're placing our own: agents that don't just talk, but act, pay, and coordinate.

💳 The agentic wallet

Agents are starting to hold and spend money: Google's Agent Payments Protocol, Visa and Mastercard agent checkout, stablecoin rails. On TON, Mira's next step is an in-chat wallet, so it won't just find the thing, it'll buy it.

🧩 From answers to actions

We're betting the next unlock isn't smarter replies. It's chaining more actions per request: Mira's value grows from depth of automation, not from any single answer getting cleverer.

🔗 Agents that work together

Standards like MCP are turning lone AI agents into networks. Our roadmap: agents on TON that share memory and pass tasks to each other.

🌙 Ambient & proactive

Reminders are still niche today, about 2% of tasks. We think that's an onboarding gap, not a lack of demand. Our bet: fix discovery with better onboarding and more educational content, and this becomes the default.

A note on the data

Every figure here is aggregated across our user base in H1 2026. We never disclose individual user data or revenue.
