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.
Cloud Linux VMs built for developers and their AI agents
SSH into Ubuntu-compatible machines with root access, apt and systemd, then keep them running as long-lived servers instead of short-lived containers.
Buy vCPU and RAM once, then create as many VMs as you need inside the pool and fork them quickly for parallel agent work.
Expose internal apps privately or publish them publicly on *.exe.xyz subdomains, with auth and secret management handled for you.
Attach OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Fireworks or Deepgram keys so agents running on your VMs have model access configured automatically.
