Teach machines to think like humans
About us
Founded in 2019 out of Tsinghua University, Z.ai is a large-scale independent model provider in China. Our mission is to make machines think like humans through the pursuit of AGI.
Key Achievements:
- Proprietary Technology: Creators of the GLM pre-training architecture, offering superior robustness and compatibility with 40+ domestic chips.
- A Historic Breakthrough in Coding: We have achieved a critical milestone in coding capabilities. On Code Arena—the globally recognized benchmark based on over one million user blind tests—GLM tied for Global #1 in Coding alongside Anthropic and OpenAI. Surpassing overseas closed-source models like Google Gemini and xAI's Grok. GLM is the first Chinese model to achieve this ranking.
- Unified Capabilities: In 2025, we launched GLM-4.5/4.6, the first models to natively fuse reasoning, coding, and agent capabilities, ranking #1 domestically and globally among open-source models across 12 authoritative benchmarks.
- Market Dominance: Z.ai has consistently ranked in the Global Top 10 on OpenRouter for usage, with API revenue surpassing all other domestic models combined.
Trusted by 2.7 million+ developers and widely applied across finance, energy, manufacturing, and more, Z.ai has doubled its revenue for three consecutive years.
