GLM-5.2 is Z.ai’s flagship model for the era of long-horizon tasks. With a truly usable 1M-token context window, it can handle project-level engineering context, execute long-running tasks more reliably, follow engineering standards more consistently, and complete the full development workflow from requirements to multi-platform deployment in a single task.
glm-5.2 vs qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b
Output tokens cost $2.76 per million on glm-5.2 and $6.00 per million on qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b. Input tokens cost $0.79 per million on glm-5.2 and $2.00 per million on qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b. Cached input tokens are billed at $0.20 per million on glm-5.2 and $0.50 per million on qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b. Discounted rates are shown where a promotion is active. Context lengths are 1,000,000 tokens on glm-5.2 and 262,000 tokens on qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b. Time to first token (TTFT) measured on AIHubMix is 0.9s on glm-5.2 and 0.7s on qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b. Measured output throughput is 46.3 tok/s on glm-5.2 and 32.2 tok/s on qwen3.8-2.4t-a95b.
Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B is Alibaba’s most powerful Qwen model to date. It is a 2.4‑trillion‑parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with approximately 95 billion active parameters. It is built for autonomous, long‑duration tasks: multi‑day code runs, reproducing research papers, and self‑improvement.
