GLM-5 Calculator — requests per $1

Every monthly plan that includes GLM-5, converted to requests per $1 at the model's typical request shape. Same engine as the main calculator — proxy estimates carry a ~ marker; coarse estimates carry .

GLM-5 is a text model in the zai family. Compare every monthly plan that includes it — requests per $1, price and burst in one interactive calculator. Verified, dated and community-scanned at tokenplans.dev.

Markers: ~ proxy estimate and coarse estimate. Borrowed cap means the budget is a published API cap at list price, so Req / $1 is a value comparison rather than a measured allowance.

What real work costs

What GLM-5 costs on real coding tasks

Illustrative cost of common coding tasks on the best-priced plans above, scaled from each plan's live per-request price to a task-typical token volume. Task token assumptions are shared ~proxy estimates — real tasks vary, and they are never per-provider shapes.

Per-task cost = the plan's effective 50,010-token request price scaled to each task's token volume at the same shape mix. ~ = proxy estimate — shared task-token assumptions, not a quote. “n/a” = GLM-5 unpriced on that plan.

Common questions

How many requests per $1 do I get on GLM-5?

The best plan pricing GLM-5 delivers ~895 Req/$1 at the model's typical request shape — on CommandCode Go. Figures are proxy confidence: they are computed from published rates and usage caps, proxy estimates are marked with a ~, and borrowed-cap plans use a published API cap at list price, so their Req/$1 is a value comparison rather than a measured allowance.

What's the cheapest plan with GLM-5?

CommandCode Go at $1/mo. The cheapest plan is not always the best value — check Req/$1 above.
