On the Artificial Analysis comprehensive benchmark, GLM-5.2 scored 51 points, ranking as the state-of-the-art among open-source models.

Analysts have highlighted the model's competitive edge. One report noted that compared to domestic rivals, the GLM model possesses a structural advantage in Agent engineering and practical deployment. The company's core coding-focused product, GLM-Coding Plan, remains in high demand even after an 83% price increase, demonstrating its strong pricing power.

Concurrently, the company's ongoing optimization of inference costs is expected to improve its gross margin, highlighting impressive progress in its commercialization efforts.
