Licensed news infrastructure and a real-time News API built for AI
Query breaking news in under 100 ms or search archived coverage across years and decades through one consistent API.
A multi-step, self-learning agent that iterates, branches and verifies across paywalled news, the open web, X, Wikipedia and more for deep research questions.
Schedule monitoring of topics, companies and events, receive recurring reports, and follow how narratives evolve with analytics and change logs.
Each data point arrives with entities, geo-coordinates, sentiment, bias scores and key points, linked into a graph of relationships over time.
Zhipu AI's open platform for GLM large models, multimodal APIs, and agent building
Unified access to GLM large language models plus vision, OCR, speech, image, and video endpoints through one account.
Build tool-using agents and expose or consume MCP services to connect models to external systems.
Create managed knowledge bases and retrieval pipelines so models can answer with your own documents.
Tune models on your data and prototype prompts interactively in the browser before shipping.
