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.
Open-source tools and libraries that make the command line glamorous
A terminal-based coding agent that connects your tools, code, and workflows to the LLM of your choice, available on macOS, Linux, Windows, and BSD.
The Go framework behind a large share of modern terminal interfaces, complemented by Lip Gloss for styling, Huh for forms, Bubbles for widgets, and Wish for SSH apps.
Small, focused tools including gum for shell scripts, glow for markdown, vhs for terminal GIFs, skate for key-value storage, and Pop for command-line email.
Coding-optimized, high-availability, cost-efficient hosting for open-source models, with a platform layer for production CLI workloads.
Free / Open-sourceDelivers exceptional open-weight reasoning performance at very low cost, but lacks BigModel's broad enterprise multi-modal agent building suite.
