Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
GPT-5 Mini offers 228.7K more tokens in context window than GLM-4.7. GLM-4.7 is $24.00 cheaper per million tokens. GPT-5 Mini supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
Zhipu AI
GLM-4.7, released by Zhipu AI on December 22, 2025, is a large language model with approximately 400 billion parameters from the GLM-4 family, designed for deep mathematical reasoning, multi-file software engineering, and stable agentic orchestration. It features a 200K token context window and 128K maximum output tokens, supporting extended code and analysis generation. GLM-4.7 targets advanced open-source deployments under an MIT license via Zhipu AI's Z.ai platform.
OpenAI
GPT-5 mini, released by OpenAI in August 2025, is a smaller variant from the GPT-5 family that inherits GPT-5's unified reasoning architecture and multimodal capabilities at a reduced inference cost. It targets high-volume production use cases requiring a balance of intelligence and response speed, offering GPT-5 capabilities for applications where full GPT-5 inference costs are a concern.
