What it is good for. Beyond chat it can do data analysis and small agents. It suits people already using GLM.
What it is not. Not ahead of DeepSeek for reasoning and code, and not ahead of Kimi for long texts. It fits people already on GLM who want a little data analysis in the chat.
Note
ChatGLM is the chat product for GLM, and the official site chatglm.cn opens directly. It can finish everyday Q&A, but there is no clear reason to place it ahead of DeepSeek for reasoning and code, or ahead of Kimi for long texts. It fits people who already need Zhipu’s models, or who want a bit of data analysis and small tools inside a chat.
Price
You can start a chat first. Some features are billed in credits. Specific prices are whatever the official site shows, and this list does not copy them.
