GLM-4.5V
GLM-4.5V builds on the GLM-4.5-Air foundation, using a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 106 billion total parameters and 12 billion activation parameters. It achieves state-of-the-art performance among open-source VLMs of similar scale across 42 public benchmarks, excelling in image, video, document, and GUI-based tasks. It supports a broad range of multimodal capabilities, including image reasoning (scene understanding, spatial recognition, multi-image analysis), video understanding (segmentation, event recognition), complex chart and long-document parsing, GUI-agent workflows (screen reading, icon recognition, desktop automation), and precise visual grounding (e.g., locating objects and returning bounding boxes). GLM-4.5V also introduces a “Thinking Mode” switch, allowing users to choose between fast responses or deeper reasoning when needed.

GLM-4.6V
GLM-4.6V is a state-of-the-art open source multimodal vision-language model from the Z.ai (GLM-V) family designed for reasoning, perception, and action. It ships in two variants: a full-scale version (106B parameters) for cloud or high-performance clusters, and a lightweight “Flash” variant (9B) optimized for local deployment or low-latency use. GLM-4.6V supports a native context window of up to 128K tokens during training, enabling it to process very long documents or multimodal inputs. Crucially, it integrates native Function Calling, meaning the model can take images, screenshots, documents, or other visual media as input directly (without manual text conversion), reason about them, and trigger tool calls, bridging “visual perception” with “executable action.” This enables a wide spectrum of capabilities; interleaved image-and-text content generation (for example, combining document understanding with text summarization or generation of image-annotated responses).

GLM-4.5V-Flash
GLM-4.5V-Flash is an open source vision-language model, designed to bring strong multimodal capabilities into a lightweight, deployable package. It supports image, video, document, and GUI inputs, enabling tasks such as scene understanding, chart and document parsing, screen reading, and multi-image analysis. Compared to larger models in the series, GLM-4.5V-Flash offers a compact footprint while retaining core VLM capabilities like visual reasoning, video understanding, GUI task handling, and complex document parsing. It can serve in “GUI agent” workflows, meaning it can interpret screenshots or desktop captures, recognize icons or UI elements, and assist with automated desktop or web-based tasks. Although it forgoes some of the largest-model performance gains, GLM-4.5V-Flash remains versatile for real-world multimodal tasks where efficiency, lower resource usage, and broad modality support are prioritized.

GLM-4.1V
GLM-4.1V is a vision-language model, providing a powerful, compact multimodal model designed for reasoning and perception across images, text, and documents. The 9-billion-parameter variant (GLM-4.1V-9B-Thinking) is built on the GLM-4-9B foundation and enhanced through a specialized training paradigm using Reinforcement Learning with Curriculum Sampling (RLCS). It supports a 64k-token context window and accepts high-resolution inputs (up to 4K images, any aspect ratio), enabling it to handle complex tasks such as optical character recognition, image captioning, chart and document parsing, video and scene understanding, GUI-agent workflows (e.g., interpreting screenshots, recognizing UI elements), and general vision-language reasoning. In benchmark evaluations at the 10 B-parameter scale, GLM-4.1V-9B-Thinking achieved top performance on 23 of 28 tasks.
