Questions people ask

Is gpt-5.2 better than GLM-5.1?
gpt-5.2 outperforms GLM-5.1 on 5 of 7 shared benchmarks. See the benchmark comparison above for specifics: gpt-5.2 and GLM-5.1 have different strengths across reasoning, coding, math and multimodal tasks.
Which is cheaper, gpt-5.2 or GLM-5.1?
GLM-5.1 is cheaper. gpt-5.2 costs $1.75/$14.00 per 1M input/output tokens, while GLM-5.1 costs $1.40/$4.40.
Can I use gpt-5.2 and GLM-5.1 through the same API?
Yes. Requesty provides a single OpenAI-compatible API that routes to both. Change just the "model" parameter to switch between "openai/gpt-5.2" and "zai/GLM-5.1", no other code changes needed.
What are the context windows?
gpt-5.2 supports up to 400K tokens of context. GLM-5.1 supports up to 200K tokens. Longer context means you can feed larger documents or codebases in a single prompt, though quality often degrades past 128K for most models.
