Benchmarks

The best result for GLM-5.2 in each benchmark Tokscale tracks. Each benchmark has its own unit, run conditions and source, so compare a score only with other models on the same benchmark. Rank is among the models Tokscale matched in that benchmark.

Pricing

List prices from models.dev in US dollars per 1M tokens, retrieved Nov 12, 2026. Z.AI is the lab's own API and the reference price for the estimates below.

Price at real agent usageEstimate at list prices

What 1M tokens cost at the reference list price when they split into input, output and cache the way Tokscale users' agents used them. It is not what anyone paid.

At the community mix

Per 1M tokens at list prices
No cache

Cache reads were 97% of GLM-5.2 tokens in the last 30 days and 96% of all tokens. The 3:1 blend, (3 × input + output) ÷ 4, is the usual comparison and ignores cache.

Assumptions

  • Z.AI list prices per 1M tokens: input $1.40, output $4.40, cache read $0.26, cache write $0.
  • This model's mix is its own input, output, cache and reasoning tokens in the last 30 days.
  • The community mix is the tokens of every identified model in the last 30 days.
  • This is an estimate at list prices, not what anyone paid.
  • Reasoning tokens are priced as output.
  • Long-context tiers, batch pricing and discounts are not applied.
  • Token mixes come from public Tokscale submissions. Hidden accounts are excluded.
