Z.ai: GLM 4.5V
The Z.ai: GLM 4.5V is a multimodal AI model that can process both text and image inputs. It has a large context length of 65536 tokens and supports reasoning capabilities. However, it does not have structured output and its open weights status is unknown. For users with a budget-friendly approach in mind, the Z.ai: GLM 4.5V might be worth considering due to its relatively low input price point of $0.6 per million tokens. Its blended benchmark score of 5.9 also indicates a decent performance across one independent benchmark, but further testing is needed for a more comprehensive understanding of its capabilities.
