Which is cheaper, gpt-5.6-luna or glm-5.3?
gpt-5.6-luna is cheaper. gpt-5.6-luna costs $0.20/$1.20 per 1M input/output tokens, while glm-5.3 costs $1.40/$4.40.
Can I use gpt-5.6-luna and glm-5.3 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-5.6-luna" and "zai/glm-5.3", no other code changes needed.
What are the context windows?
gpt-5.6-luna supports up to 1.1M tokens of context. glm-5.3 supports up to 1M tokens. Longer context means you can feed larger documents or codebases in a single prompt, though quality often degrades past 128K for most models.
