Huawei Cloud announced on Friday, November 15, 2026, the official launch of the open-source openPangu-2.1-Pro model on its MaaS (Model as a Service) platform. The model brings upgrades in agent development, AI coding and inference optimization.
Improvements include enhanced performance in deep research, HarmonyOS system operation, HarmonyOS app development, Ascend operator generation and inference pipeline optimization. For agents, more than 100,000 specialized samples were used to improve skill triggering, tool selection and calling.
On the coding side, the focus is on ArkTS for native HarmonyOS apps and Ascend operator generation, lowering the development barrier. Key operator and inference chain optimization increases throughput in typical scenarios. Reported prices are 0.8 yuan per million input tokens, 3.2 yuan for output and 0.016 yuan for cache hits.
The model will be integrated into products such as AgentArts, CodeArts and OfficeAce. It was already available in limited form in tools like Xiaoyi Work with emphasis on HarmonyOS tasks. Previous 2.0 versions stopped being sold in early November and will be discontinued at the end of the month.
