GLM-OCR

GLM-OCR is an open-source multimodal optical character recognition (OCR) model built on a GLM-V encoder–decoder foundation that brings robust, accurate document understanding to complex real-world layouts and modalities. Designed to handle text recognition, table parsing, formula extraction, and general information retrieval from documents containing mixed content, GLM-OCR excels across major benchmarks while remaining highly efficient with a relatively compact parameter size (~0.9B), enabling deployment in high-concurrency services and edge environments. The model’s multimodal capabilities allow it to reason across image and text content holistically, capturing structured and unstructured information from pages that include dense tables, seals, code snippets, and varied document graphics. GLM-OCR integrates a comprehensive SDK and inference toolchain that makes it easy for developers to install, invoke, and embed into production pipelines with simple commands or APIs.
