GLM Image API

A flagship workhorse for complex software engineering and long-horizon agent tasks. It uses the same base model as GLM-5.2, with improvements driven by post-training, delivering a 50% gain on Z.ai Code Bench alongside stronger terminal-operation and vulnerability-discovery capabilities. It offers a 1M-token context window, up to 128K output, always-on reasoning with low, high, and max effort levels, function calling, and structured outputs. It currently accepts text only and is not intended for tasks requiring visual understanding.

Built for reasoning, coding, and long-context agent tasks, improving over GLM-5.1 in context length, tool use, and complex multi-step workflows. Compared with Chinese flagship peers such as Qwen, DeepSeek, and Kimi, it fits enterprise automation, project-level code analysis, and knowledge work in Chinese.

This is a discounted trial route. Generation may take longer and has roughly a 10% chance of failing. It is best for cost-sensitive image generation trials where queueing and occasional failures are acceptable; for more stable production use, choose a regular route.
