Thinking levels:

GLM-4.5V is a vision-language foundation model for multimodal agent applications. Built on a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with about 106B parameters and 12B activated parameters, it reaches state-of-the-art results in video understanding, image Q&A, OCR and document parsing.

It also shows strong gains in front-end web coding, visual grounding and spatial reasoning. Like the rest of the family, it supports a hybrid inference mode (thinking / non-thinking), with a context window of up to 64K tokens.

Pricing is usage-based: $0.60 per million input tokens and $1.80 per million output tokens. GLM-4.5V is served through Hormouz behind an OpenAI-compatible API with stable access from inside Iran.
