GLM: Z.ai models for coding and connected tools
GLM is Z.ai’s family of AI models. Its Coding Plan supplies model access to supported coding tools, while the general API serves applications and other integrations.
Coding subscriptions and usage-based API access
I use GLM through ZCode, alongside DeepSeek Pro and OpenAI.
What makes it different?
The Coding Plan is designed for supported coding tools; the general API is a separate route for using models in your own applications.
