Decision reading

GPT-5.5 Pro has the higher public score estimate, 63.07 versus 58.99, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner.

4 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or 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.

  • Long documents

    Prompts that approach the documented context limit

    GPT-5.5 Pro

    GPT-5.5 Pro has the larger documented context window.

    Confidence: documented

Show secondary and unsupported calls
  • Coding work

    Code generation, repair, and software-engineering tasks

    Not enough matched evidence

    GPT-5.5 Pro is not ranked on the public lane for coding, so no winner is named for coding.

    Confidence: limited

  • Agentic work

    Tool use, computer use, and multi-step task completion

    Not enough matched evidence

    GLM-4.7 and GPT-5.5 Pro are scored on Estimated evidence for agentic, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like.

    Confidence: limited

  • Chat turn cost

    1K fresh input + 500 output tokens

    Not enough matched evidence

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

    Confidence: listed-rates

  • Cache-heavy agent loop cost

    200K cached + 20K fresh input + 10K output tokens

    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. GPT-5.5 Pro 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.

Like-for-like categories
0 / 8

2 categories rest on Estimated evidence or different evidence sets. Those rows remain visible for coverage context but do not name a winner.

Category results, on a stated basis

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.

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.

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.

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. GPT-5.5 Pro 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.

Cached-input rate

A missing cached-input rate falls back to the listed input rate only in the stated workload estimate.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better, GLM-4.7 or GPT-5.5 Pro?

GPT-5.5 Pro has the higher public score estimate, 63.07 versus 58.99, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.

Which is better for coding, GLM-4.7 or GPT-5.5 Pro?

GPT-5.5 Pro is not ranked on the public lane for coding, so no winner is named for coding.

Which is better for agentic tasks, GLM-4.7 or GPT-5.5 Pro?

GPT-5.5 Pro scores higher for agentic tasks on the public lane, 60.6 to 51.1. GLM-4.7 and GPT-5.5 Pro are scored on Estimated evidence for agentic tasks, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like. BenchLM does not name a winner for agentic tasks from a directional reading; read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.

Which costs less, GLM-4.7 or GPT-5.5 Pro?

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 GPT-5.5 Pro?

GPT-5.5 Pro has the larger documented context window: 1.05M, compared with 200K.
