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.

ByteDance

Seed1.5-VL, released by ByteDance Seed on May 15, 2025, is a vision-language foundation model composed of a 532M-parameter vision encoder and a Mixture-of-Experts language model with 20 billion active parameters. It was pretrained on over 3 trillion multimodal tokens and achieved state-of-the-art performance on 38 out of 60 public VLM benchmarks at release. Seed1.5-VL targets complex visual reasoning, OCR, video comprehension, 3D spatial understanding, and multimodal agentic tasks.
