GLM-4.7 vs GLM-5-Turbo

Updated July 29, 2026. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty. They are not guarantees for a specific workload.

GLM-4.7

Z.AI

60.4/100

Supported · Public rank #46

90% interval 46.7–74.0

GLM-5-Turbo

Z.AI

65.9/100

Supported · Public rank #29

90% interval 56.1–75.7

The public evidence has no benchmark result shared by both models, so it does not support a quality verdict. Use the documented cost, context, and runtime rows instead.

0 results are shared. Category rows based on different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.

Which one for your work

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.

No workload recommendation clears the current evidence threshold.

Use the matched evidence, workload costs, and sourced specifications below instead of treating a point score as a universal answer.

    Not enough matched evidence

    The page does not recommend a cost winner because at least one model cannot fit the stated workload in one request. GLM-4.7 does not fit this workload in one request. GLM-5-Turbo does not fit this workload in one request. GLM-5-Turbo has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. GLM-4.7 has no comparable published API token rate.

    Confidence: rate-fallback

  • Repository review cost

    50K fresh input + 3K output tokens

    Not enough matched evidence

    A complete comparable API-rate estimate is not available for both models.

What is actually comparable

Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.

Category results, on a stated basis

Each row states whether both averages use the same weighted benchmark set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner in this template.

Shape of the matched evidence

Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.

A shared-evidence shape is not available.

BenchLM does not draw a radar or infer missing axes when the matched evidence is too sparse.

What each workload costs

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.

GLM-4.7 does not fit this workload in one request. GLM-5-Turbo does not fit this workload in one request. GLM-5-Turbo has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. GLM-4.7 has no comparable published API token rate.

Specification differences

Sourced differences are shown directly. Missing facts stay explicit instead of being inferred from a model name or family.

Deployment change
Both entries list Z.AI as the provider. Confirm endpoint, model ID, limits, and feature support before switching.
Quality signal
The public evidence has no benchmark result shared by both models, so it does not support a quality verdict.
Workload cost
A complete comparable API-rate estimate is not available for both models.
Context tradeoff
Both models list 200K.

Run the same representative tasks against both endpoints before changing production traffic.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better, GLM-4.7 or GLM-5-Turbo?

The public evidence has no benchmark result shared by both models, so it does not support a quality verdict. The page therefore keeps the decision tied to the specific documented workload.

Which is better for coding, GLM-4.7 or GLM-5-Turbo?

The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted coding basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a coding winner.

Which is better for agentic tasks, GLM-4.7 or GLM-5-Turbo?

The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted agentic tasks basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a agentic tasks winner.

Which costs less, GLM-4.7 or GLM-5-Turbo?

Both models do not have comparable published API token rates, so this page does not name a universal price winner.

Which has the larger context window, GLM-4.7 or GLM-5-Turbo?

Both models list the same context window, 200K.
