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, high-performance vector search at any scale
Built entirely in Rust with SIMD and a custom Gridstore storage engine for fast, scalable vector search.
Combine dense and sparse vectors in one query, supporting BM25, SPLADE++ and miniCOIL for keyword-plus-vector retrieval.
Store metadata as JSON and apply advanced filters such as nested, text, geo and has_vector, with filters applied during HNSW traversal.
Asymmetric, scalar and binary quantization reduce memory usage by up to 64x while preserving search quality.
Free / Open-sourceDelivers exceptional open-weight reasoning performance at very low cost, but lacks BigModel's broad enterprise multi-modal agent building suite.
