Workload guidance

Which model should you choose?

Consider zai-org/GLM-5.2 if you need larger context or a lower listed input rate or a lower listed output rate. Consider GPT-5 Pro if you need larger maximum output. 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.
