Z.AI: GLM 4.5 Air

Z.AI: GLM 4.5 Air, a lightweight variant of the GLM-4.5 flagship model, demonstrates exceptional speed, consistently ranking among the fastest models with an Infinityth percentile across seven benchmarks. Its pricing is moderate, positioned at the 26th percentile across six benchmarks, offering competitive value. The model exhibits outstanding reliability, achieving a 97% success rate, indicating minimal technical failures and consistent evaluable responses. Performance across benchmarks reveals a mixed but generally strong profile. It excels in General Knowledge and Ethics, achieving 99.5% and 99.0% accuracy respectively, placing it in the 79th and 57th percentiles. Instruction Following shows a solid 68.7% accuracy (79th percentile), though an initial 0.0% accuracy result suggests potential for variability or specific test case issues. Reasoning and Coding benchmarks are respectable at 69.4% (64th percentile) and 84.0% (62nd percentile) accuracy. A notable weakness appears in Email Classification, where its 80.0% accuracy places it in the 9th percentile, indicating an area for improvement. Despite some longer durations on specific benchmarks, its overall speed ranking remains a significant advantage, particularly for agent-centric applications.
