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.

Real-time search engine scraping API with structured JSON, HTML, or Markdown output
Pull on-demand search results from Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and Yandex, with support for many localized domains and languages.
Receive responses as structured JSON, raw HTML, or Markdown, so pipelines can consume results without custom parsing when you want the fast path.
Proxy rotation, CAPTCHA solving, and unblocking are handled by the API, so you do not have to build or maintain that infrastructure.
Target results from a specific country or language at no extra cost, useful for local SEO and international market research.
