TREE NEWS update: Zhipu released GLM-5.3-FlashX, with its API now fully open. The new model delivers inference speeds of up to 200 tokens/s, five times faster than the existing GLM-5.3-Flash, while pricing rises to 2.5 times the original version.
Zhipu Releases GLM-5.3-FlashX With 5x Faster Inference, 2.5x Price
AI take
Zhipu is repositioning its Flash tier rather than simply discounting it: the speed gain is framed as the product, with price following performance upward. That matters for developers who had treated Flash as the cheap default and now face a cost-speed tradeoff within the same family. The open API lowers the barrier to testing whether the higher price is justified in production workloads. Whether rivals match the speed tier or undercut on price is the open question.
