Question 1

What does this zai-org/GLM-5.2 vs GPT-5.1 Codex Max comparison cover?

Accepted Answer

It brings together documented inputs and outputs, token limits, deployment terms and available pricing. When both models have source-linked, verified results on a shared benchmark, those results are shown with their individual sources. The comparison is a starting point for evaluating your own workload.

Question 2

Which is cheaper: zai-org/GLM-5.2 or GPT-5.1 Codex Max?

Accepted Answer

zai-org/GLM-5.2 lists $1.40 input and $4.40 output per 1M tokens. GPT-5.1 Codex Max lists $1.25 input and $10.00 output. The cheaper workload depends on the mix of input and output. Long-context tiers, caching, batch processing and retries can change the bill.

Question 3

Which has the larger context window: zai-org/GLM-5.2 or GPT-5.1 Codex Max?

Accepted Answer

zai-org/GLM-5.2 lists 1M tokens and GPT-5.1 Codex Max lists 400K. zai-org/GLM-5.2 therefore has the larger recorded context window, but capacity alone is not a quality score.

Question 4

Which is faster: zai-org/GLM-5.2 or GPT-5.1 Codex Max?

Accepted Answer

There is no matched speed measurement for both models with the same source, host, region and date. Test the same prompts at your expected concurrency and measure time to the first useful response as well as complete task time.

Question 5

What input and output types do zai-org/GLM-5.2 and GPT-5.1 Codex Max support?

Accepted Answer

zai-org/GLM-5.2 records text input and text output. GPT-5.1 Codex Max records text, image input and text output. “Not documented” means the current source record is incomplete; it does not prove that a modality is unsupported.

Question 6

Should I choose zai-org/GLM-5.2 or GPT-5.1 Codex Max?

Accepted Answer

Consider zai-org/GLM-5.2 if you need larger context or larger maximum output or a lower listed output rate. Consider GPT-5.1 Codex Max if you need a lower listed input rate. Test both on the same representative examples and judge the output against your acceptance criteria. Include tool failures, retries and the time to a completed task.
