Z.ai: GLM 4.5V
Z.ai's GLM 4.5V is a multimodal model with vision support, but benchmark scores are weak across reasoning, coding, and agentic tasks, and its pricing is relatively high for the capability on offer — not recommended for demanding business use cases.

GLM-4.5V is a vision-language foundation model for multimodal agent applications. Built on a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 106B parameters and 12B activated parameters, it achieves state-of-the-art results in video understanding, image Q&A, OCR, and document parsing, with strong gains in front-end web coding, grounding, and spatial reasoning. It offers a hybrid inference mode: a "thinking mode" for deep reasoning and a "non-thinking mode" for fast responses. Reasoning behavior can be toggled via the reasoning enabled boolean.
