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.
Google's rapid prototyping IDE and developer API workbench for building multimodal applications with Gemini models.
Allows developers to drop hours of video, multi-track audio files, high-resolution images, entire codebases, and multi-hundred-page PDFs directly into the prompt window with up to 1,000,000 tokens of shared context.
Provides direct access to Google's frontier reasoning and agentic models with granular controls over thinking tokens, temperature, function declarations, and strict JSON schema output validation.
Includes a dedicated `/live` studio interface for testing sub-second, bidirectional voice and screen/camera interactions powered by `gemini-3.8-live`, `gemini-3.8-live-extended-thinking`, and `gemini-3.5-live-translate-preview`.
Connects model responses to live Google Search results and Google Maps geospatial data with a single toggle, including 5,000 free grounded requests per month on Paid tiers before $14/1,000-query metering.
Free / Open-sourceDelivers exceptional open-weight reasoning performance at very low cost, but lacks BigModel's broad enterprise multi-modal agent building suite.
Enterprise developer platform and API for deploying GPT-6 Astra, Sol, Luna, and realtime multimodal agents.
One API key for hundreds of AI models from every major provider
Free / Open-sourceGoogle's family of lightweight, open-weight AI models
SpecialistOne API for 1,500+ production-ready generative media models
SpecialistTogether AI is the AI Native Cloud — a full-stack platform for running, fine-tuning and training open-source models. It spans serverless inference APIs, dedicated endpoints, GPU clusters, post-training and storage, all backed by in-house systems research.
SpecialistRun, fine-tune, and deploy machine learning models with one line of code
Delivers ultra-fast inference speeds for open-weight models, but focuses less on proprietary enterprise agent building toolkits than BigModel.
Free / Open-sourceLow-cost serverless inference APIs for 200+ open models
SpecialistOne API for fast, cost-predictable inference on LLMs and multimodal models
Provides strong multimodal language and audio-visual foundation models, but operates on different proprietary model architectures than Zhipu's GLM.
