Released 14 days after GLM 4.5 · Announcement · All Z.ai releases
GLM 4.5V is Zhipu's multimodal model built on the GLM-4.5-Air architecture, pairing 106 billion total parameters (12 billion active) with native vision understanding for broad visual reasoning. Released August 2025, it reports state-of-the-art results across roughly 41 to 42 public multimodal benchmarks, covering image question answering, video understanding, document parsing, and GUI automation. The model's 65K multimodal context window and 3D-RoPE vision encoder let it process high-resolution images, extreme aspect ratios, video, and text-heavy documents together, using 3D convolutions for efficient video handling. Native multimodal function calling allows images and screenshots to be passed directly as tool parameters, simplifying agentic integration, and a hybrid thinking mode trades reasoning depth against latency across single-image and multi-image tasks. With English and Chinese support and an MIT license, GLM 4.5V suits front-end web coding, document intelligence, accessibility systems, and multimodal agents, keeping the MoE efficiency of GLM-4.5-Air for vision plus tool-driven reasoning at modest cost.

GLM 4.5V runs on a single route through the Opper gateway today, so its availability is that provider's availability.
Name a second model in the same request and the gateway tries it on retriable errors, so a busy hour never has to reach your users. Set up a fallback chain.
Measured over the last 30 days from each provider's official status feed via StatusGator. Refreshed hourly. See uptime for every provider Opper monitors.
Each route hosting GLM 4.5V has its own privacy posture, residency, and GDPR terms. Postures are maintained by Opper with a last-verification timestamp.
Zero data retention: nothing is logged, held for abuse monitoring or used for training. No training on customer data. US; SCCs; DPA available.
Independent benchmark scores: the Intelligence Index and the individual evaluations behind it, grouped by skill.
Call GLM 4.5V through the Opper gateway with one API key. Opper is drop-in compatible with the OpenAI, Anthropic and Google AI SDKs.
GLM 4.5V is a premium model on Opper. Sign up needs no credit card: you get an API key straight away and the free models work in the playground and the API. Add a card to use premium models, pay-as-you-go with no minimum.
Copy this and paste it into a coding agent like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex and it'll wire up Opper for you.
