Get API keyAPI reference

GLM-4.5V series is a flagship visual understanding model based on the MoE architecture. With 106B total parameters and 12B activated parameters, it is a comprehensive upgrade from GLM-4.1V-Thinking, reaching SOTA level among open-source multimodal models. Combined with the innovative RLCS reinforcement learning technology, it performs excellently on tasks such as video understanding, image question answering, OCR, and document parsing, and achieves significant improvements in complex scenarios including front-end web Coding, Grounding, and spatial reasoning. It supports flexible switching between thinking / non-thinking modes, balancing reasoning depth and efficiency.

Pricing

The same model is available through multiple service channels — choose based on latency, reliability and cost.

Prices in $ / 1M tokens

To pick a channel, add a provider field to the request body, for example "provider": { "channel": "direct" }. Valid values are direct / stable / economical; omit it to use the default channel.

Direct

Direct upstream connection — best when you need native behavior and the full context window.

GLM-4.5V usage examples

SeaWhale AI is compatible with the OpenAI API protocol, so you can call it with the OpenAI SDK or plain HTTP requests. Streaming is enabled by default.

About the provider parameter (optional, a SeaWhale AI extension): most models are served over several channels that differ slightly in price and reliability. Add a provider field to the request body to pick one; omit it and the system selects the default channel — normal calls are unaffected.

provider is not part of the official OpenAI protocol — it is a SeaWhale AI extension that only takes effect on this platform. The OpenAI SDK allows custom fields like this to pass through; see the examples below.

Value	Channel	Best for
direct	Direct	The official upstream link, for native behavior and the full context window
stable	Preferred	Balanced availability and speed — a good default for production traffic
economical	Economy	Cost first, well suited to batch processing and price-sensitive workloads

Available channels and their prices are listed under "Pricing" above (channels vary by model). Additional notes:

• Syntax: "provider": { "channel": "direct" }.
• If the requested channel is not enabled for that model, the request automatically falls back to the default channel and returns normally — it does not error.
• With the official SDKs: in Python pass it via extra_body; in Node.js put it directly on the request object and it passes through. In TypeScript projects, add a // @ts-expect-error line to skip the type check.
