alt Hacker NewsFunnily, Anthropic's pricing etc. why I'm using GLM-5 a bunch more outside of work. Definitely not Opus level, but surprisingly decent. Though I got lucky and got the Alibaba Coding Model lite plan, which is so cheap they got rid of it

Does GLM-5 have multimodality or are they still wanting you to load an MCP for vision support?

I've been doing something similar. I use Claude for analysis and non-coding work, GLM for most coding tasks (GLM's coding plan) and when I need to do a larger implementation project I use GLM&Claude to build out an in depth plan and toss it to Github Copilot to Opus the implementation.
I was trying to get The alibaba plan but missed the mark. I'm curious to try out the Minimax coding plan (#10/mo) or Kimi ($20/mo) at some point to see how they stack up.
For Pricing: GLM was $180 for a year of their pro tier during a black friday sale and GHCP was $100/year but they don't have the annual plan any more so it is now $120. Alibaba's only coding plan today is $50/mo, too rich for me.
