Model Card
GLM-4.5-AirX is the ultra-fast inference variant of Z.ai's GLM-4.5-Air, a 106B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with 12B active parameters per forward pass. It shares the same architecture and 128K-token context window as GLM-4.5-Air but is optimized for maximum throughput and minimal latency.
GLM-4.5-Air itself delivers strong results — scoring 59.8 across 12 industry benchmarks and outperforming models like Gemini 2.5 Flash and Qwen3-235B on reasoning evaluations. AirX preserves that capability while targeting low-latency, high-concurrency production scenarios.
Best suited for real-time agent pipelines, high-volume chat, and latency-sensitive coding assistance where the full GLM-4.5's throughput is insufficient but you still need competitive reasoning and tool-use performance.

GLM 5.3 FlashX Legal
GLM 5.3 FlashX Legal is a closed-source variant of Z.ai's GLM-5.3-FlashX tuned for legal work, including legal research, contract review, and document drafting. It accepts text, image, and video input and returns text. It has a 1,048,576-token context window, which fits long contracts and case files in a single request, and up to 131,072 output tokens. It supports function calling. Pricing is $0.37 per million input tokens and $1.25 per million output tokens, the same as GLM-5.3-FlashX. On Vals AI's Legal Research Bench it scores 41.83, according to DataLearner. Z.ai has not published other benchmark results for it. It suits developers building contract analysis tools, legal research assistants, and drafting workflows that process long documents.
ChatGLM 5.3 Prime
GLM 5.3 Prime is a high-speed serving tier built on Z.ai's GLM-5.3, offered through third-party inference platforms rather than as an official Z.ai product listing. It runs the same 744-billion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts weights (40 billion active) as standard GLM-5.3, on infrastructure tuned for higher throughput. Vendor reports put its output throughput at 1.5 to 2 times the standard GLM-5.3 endpoint, at roughly double the per-token price, a pattern also seen with GLM-5.2's own "Fast" tier. No independent benchmark of the Prime endpoint exists, but since the weights are unchanged, it should inherit GLM-5.3's reported gains over GLM-5.2, including a 50% jump on Z.ai's Code Bench and gains on Terminal-Bench 3.0 and DeepSWE v1.1. It supports a 1,000,000-token context window, 128,000 max output tokens, three reasoning-effort levels, and function calling. Best suited for agent loops and coding assistants that chain many model calls and are latency-sensitive, where the throughput gain offsets cost.
ChatGLM 5.3 FlashX
GLM 5.3 FlashX is Z.ai's high-speed serving tier for GLM-5.3-Flash, using the same 320-billion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts weights (18 billion active) rather than a separate model. Z.ai runs it on faster inference infrastructure, reporting speeds up to 200 tokens per second. Because the weights are unchanged, it inherits GLM-5.3-Flash's benchmark results, including 63.4 on DeepSWE v1.1 and 48.8 on AutomationBench, both ahead of GLM-5.2. It keeps the same 1,000,000-token context window, 128,000-token max output, and function calling support. Pricing is $0.37 per million input tokens and $1.25 per million output tokens, about 2.5 times GLM-5.3-Flash's rate. It fits agent loops and coding assistants that call the model repeatedly and need lower per-call latency, where the added throughput offsets the higher per-token price.
