Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
Mistral Small 3.1 24B Instruct supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
Zhipu AI
GLM-5 is a large language model from Zhipu AI with 745 billion total parameters and 44 billion active parameters per inference, designed for agentic intelligence, advanced reasoning, and frontier-level performance. It features a 200K token context window and targets complex multi-step tasks requiring sustained reasoning and tool use. GLM-5 is available via Zhipu AI's Z.ai platform under an MIT license.
Mistral AI
Mistral Small 3.1 is a 24-billion-parameter multimodal model from Mistral AI, released in March 2025 as an update to Mistral Small 3 that added vision understanding and expanded the context window from 32K to 128K tokens. The model accepts both text and image inputs, broadening its applicability to document analysis, image-grounded reasoning, and mixed-media workflows without requiring an increase in parameter count. Released under Apache 2.0, it continued Mistral's pattern of incremental capability gains delivered in compact, practically deployable open-weight packages.
