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.
AI takeoff and quoting software for HVAC distributors
Upload any drawing set and Monaro extracts equipment types, model numbers, specs and quantities into a structured takeoff.
Every diffuser, grille, fan and fixture is counted across each floor, with uncertain detections flagged for fast human review.
See supplier pricing beside your takeoff, set margins, and build and send branded formatted quotes without exporting to spreadsheets.
Turn any takeoff into a formatted supplier RFQ and compare returned supplier quotes side by side inside the platform.
