GLM-5.2 has the higher public score estimate, 66.84 versus 66.59, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner.
16 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.
Updated September 17, 2026. Rank cannot separate these two. Price, access, and your workload decide. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty.

Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.

Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.
1 category rests on Estimated evidence or different evidence sets. Those rows remain visible for coverage context but do not name a winner.
Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign lane for agentic, coding, and knowledge, and the weighted public rows elsewhere, with the same rank each model page reports. A row is like-for-like only when both scores rest on Supported evidence or the same weighted set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner.

Ranks count the models scored in each category’s lane, so the agentic, coding, and knowledge denominators (BenchAlign) differ from the provisional-lane categories. Unranked scores sit on the lane’s scale but never name a winner. Like-for-like rows within 0.5 points read as a practical tie.
Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.
Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.
1K fresh input + 500 output tokens
DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 has the lower modeled cost
Costs use the listed standard API rates.
50K fresh input + 3K output tokens

Costs use the listed standard API rates.
200K cached + 20K fresh input + 10K output tokens
DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 has the lower modeled cost
GLM-5.2 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate.
Sourced differences are shown directly. Missing facts stay explicit instead of being inferred from a model name or family.
Maximum documented context; output-token limits may be lower.

GLM-5.2 has the higher public score estimate, 66.84 versus 66.59, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.
GLM-5.2 leads the public coding lane, 60.9 to 52.3, with Supported evidence for both models, although the 90% intervals overlap.
GLM-5.2 leads the public agentic tasks lane, 58.1 to 55.6, with Supported evidence for both models, although the 90% intervals overlap.
For the stated presets, chat costs $0.00087 on DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 and $0.0036 on GLM-5.2; repository review costs $0.02436 and $0.0832; the cache-heavy agent loop costs $0.01812 and $0.352. GLM-5.2 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate.
Both models list the same context window, 1M.
