GLM-5V-Turbo Tech Report: Toward a Native Foundation Model for Multimodal Agents This report summarizes the main improvements behind GLM-5V-Turbo across model design, multimodal training, reinforcement learning, toolchain expansion, and integration with agent frameworks. These developments lead to strong performance in multimodal coding, visual tool use, and framework-based agentic tasks.

Scaling laws push model capability forward. But whether that capability becomes reliable in production depends on how we handle Scaling Pain.

Introducing GLM-5.1: The Next Level of Open Source. With top-tier performance, GLM-5.1 ranks #1 in open source and #3 globally across SWE-Bench Pro, Terminal-Bench, and NL2Repo. Built for long-horizon tasks, it runs autonomously for 8 hours, refining strategies through thousands of iterations. On SWE-Bench Pro, GLM-5.1 achieves SOTA with a score of 58.4, delivering significant leaps in coding and agentic performance. On Vector-DB-Bench, GLM-5.1 delivers a 6x performance boost. In high-performance database optimization, it reached 21.5k QPS over 600+ iterations and 6,000+ tool calls, which is 6x the performance of a standard 50-turn session.

GLM-5.1 is available to ALL GLM Coding Plan users! https://z.ai/subscribe To use GLM-5.1: - Locate your configuration file (e.g., "~/.claude/settings.json" if you are using Claude Code) - Manually change the model name to "glm-5.1"

Big thanks to all our partners for the support.. We’re inviting the best startups to join now..let’s see who makes the finals 👀 Singapore · May 9 See you there.

We’re seeing more startups move from “demo” to real production AI. But the hard part isn’t the prototype. It’s shipping reliably. Scaling economically. Handling real users. That’s why we built the  “Z.ai Startup Program” → Grow your startup beyond limits with Z.ai. Apply now → lnkd.in/gNJhHmGG Ship faster, scale cheaper.

Calling all UK startup builders 🇬🇧 Let’s meet, build, and shape the future of AI together.

Z.ai for Startups is where founders and builders share what it takes to ship AI in production — reliability, fast iteration, real customer value. Run by the Z.ai Startups Team. Accelerate your growth. Scale globally. Shape the AGI future. 🔧 Build guides + launch kits + production patterns 🧑🤝🧑 Events + office hours with builders & operators 🧠 Founder stories — decisions, tradeoffs, learnings Building your first AI feature, agent, or scaling to real users? You’re in the right place. Let's #BuildWithZai🚀

🚀 Own the Compute. Share the Growth. Z.ai Global Compute & Distribution Partner Program Global demand for GLM-5 has exceeded every projection. Across API usage, enterprise deployments, and our rapidly expanding GLM Coding Plan, demand continues to outpace available inference capacity — even after multiple rounds of cluster expansion. We are not just scaling. We are building the global intelligence layer. Today, Z.ai is opening its Global Compute & Distribution Partner Program — inviting a limited number of strategic partners to co-build, co-scale, and co-sell the next-generation AI infrastructure. 🌐 Who We Are Looking For 1️⃣ High-Performance Compute Providers If you operate advanced GPU clusters, inference farms, or high-availability compute infrastructure, you can: • Power GLM-5 inference workloads • Integrate into our global API backbone • Participate in revenue sharing from API and Coding Plan usage • Become a regional GLM-5 capacity node This is not idle capacity leasing. This is becoming part of the intelligence network. 2️⃣ Regional Cloud & AI Service Operators If you serve enterprise customers, developers, or public sector clients, you can: • Bundle GLM-5 API into your existing cloud offerings • Distribute GLM Coding Plan locally • Offer localized enterprise AI solutions • Capture recurring revenue streams from high-growth AI demand You bring distribution. We bring frontier models. Together, we unlock scalable monetization. 3️⃣ Strategic Infrastructure Alliances We welcome: • Sovereign AI compute deployments • Regional AI acceleration hubs • Edge inference networks • Hybrid compute collaboration models The AGI era will be defined by resilient, distributed compute ecosystems. 💼 Partner Value ✔ Premium AI workloads with sustained utilization growth ✔ Revenue participation from GLM-5 API and Coding Plan ✔ Early access to system-level optimization ✔ Co-branded flagship deployments ✔ Long-term ecosystem positioning in the global AI stack This is an opportunity to move beyond compute supply — and step into AI platform economics. 🌍 Why Now GLM-5 is scaling globally. Enterprise demand is accelerating. Developer adoption is expanding rapidly. The infrastructure layer will determine who captures the value of AGI. If you operate meaningful compute capacity and want to join the GLM-5 API and Coding Plan sales ecosystem — this is the moment. DM with: • Available compute capacity • Regional coverage • Proposed collaboration model Let’s build the global intelligence infrastructure together. #ZAI #GLM5 #GlobalCompute #AIInfrastructure #InferenceNetwork #ComputePartners #AIEcosystem #CloudAlliance #SovereignAI #AIAPI #CodingAI #AGI #AICloud #AIAcceleration #FutureOfCompute #AIPlatform #GlobalAI #AIAlliance
