Z.ai's GLM-5.2 Reaches Together Chat and Fireworks With 44% DeepSWE Pass Rate
Chinese AI lab Z.ai's GLM-5.2 is now available for free testing on Together Chat without API setup, and developers can run it in Cursor via Fireworks, widening hosted access to the open-weight model. Together said the service is hosted on North American infrastructure.
Hosted availability follows strong coding-benchmark results. On DeepSWE, a software-engineering benchmark, GLM-5.2 posted a 44% first-attempt pass rate at max effort, leading open-source models by 17 percentage points over Kimi K2.7 Code. Earlier results put it third on FrontierSWE, a long-horizon engineering benchmark, behind Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 and Opus 4.8 while ahead of GPT-5.5.

@clementdelangue“Cost per task varies by ~800x across models tested: Claude Fable 5 leads the benchmark but costs more than $31 per task on average, compared to ~$0.04 for DeepSeek V4 Flash (max). The strongest price/performance options are open weights mo

@matvellosoAll day using GLM 5.2. Didn't miss much. First open model that passes the bar as a daily driver. Things are not going to be the same. Damn, now I want to buy some serious hardware.

@zai_orgLong-horizon is more than a concept. It should live in real-world scenarios, empowering AI builders to solve the problems that matter. And more scenarios are on the way.

@teortaxestexGLM results are insanely high If this is "distillation", it's doing better than any previous attempt Eg ProofBench should be amenable both to distillation and RLVR, yet V4, Kimi, Mimo, Grok lol are all hopeless. Zhipu will obviously aim to

@teortaxestexInteresting that in "GLM 5.2 is on par with X model", X is so widely distributed over different capabilities, and it's not like the gap is just greater for the difficult ones. It plainly can't do some parlor tricks Sonnet 3.5 pulled off. In
