glm-z1-air

GLM-Z1 is a fully self-developed deep reasoning model series launched by Zhipu AI, positioned as a domestically produced large-model foundation that “matches the performance of DeepSeek-R1 while achieving extreme optimization in speed and cost.” It aims to provide users with a reasoning experience endowed with “deep thinking” capabilities through reinforcement learning technology.

• Outstanding Reasoning and Mathematical Abilities: Adopting cold-start and extended reinforcement learning (RL) strategies, GLM-Z1 has been deeply optimized for mathematical proofs, logical reasoning, and code generation, delivering performance that rivals OpenAI o1 and DeepSeek-R1.
• Extreme Inference Speed: The GLM-Z1-AirX version boasts an inference speed of up to 200 tokens per second, representing an approximately 8-fold improvement over similar inference models and effectively addressing the bottleneck of slow response times in deep reasoning models.
• Cost-Effectiveness and Open-Source Ecosystem: Through technological optimizations, Zhipu has significantly reduced inference costs, pricing its models at just one-thirtieth of those offered by competing products. This model series—including versions such as 32B and 9B—has been officially open-sourced and is accessible via the global domain Z.ai.
• Support for Long Chain of Thought (Long CoT): Equipped with a built-in “rumination” mechanism, GLM-Z1 supports context windows of up to 128K tokens. Before providing answers, the model conducts self-reflection, error correction, and multi-path verification, ensuring the rigor of outputs for complex tasks.
• Comprehensive Model Matrix for All Scenarios: The series includes multiple versions such as GLM-Z1-Air (cost-effective inference), GLM-Z1-AirX (ultra-fast acceleration), and GLM-Z1-Flash (permanently free), catering to diverse needs—from scientific research to large-scale commercial applications.
