GLM 5 vs GLM OCR

This comparison does not currently contain a protocol-matched coding benchmark for both GLM 5 and GLM OCR, so Model Markets cannot name a coding leader from pricing, context size, or capability labels alone.

Only GLM 5 has a directly sourced input price: $0.60 per million tokens. Only GLM 5 has a directly sourced output price: $1.92 per million tokens.

GLM 5 has the larger sourced context window. GLM 5 supports 202,752 tokens and GLM OCR supports 131,072 tokens.

There is no overall benchmark winner: At least two independently verified, protocol-matched benchmarks are required for an overall winner.

Both models have the same sourced self-hosting status: supported. GLM 5 is open weight; GLM OCR is open weight.

GLM 5 is not documented with image input; GLM OCR is documented with image input. This reflects supported input modalities, not vision quality.

Neither model has a sourced maximum output in this comparison, so a larger limit cannot be determined.

GLM 5: reasoning and tool calling. GLM OCR: tool calling and image input. Feature support does not establish relative quality.

GLM 5 has 4 sourced provider routes; GLM OCR has 1, so GLM 5 has broader tracked availability.

There is no universal value winner. Compare the input and output prices above with the matched benchmark result for your workload: cheaper tokens can be offset by different quality, token usage, latency, or provider availability.
