GLM-4-Plus
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.
On record
Full specification
Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What it does
The problem areas the model was built for. A model can carry several of each.
- Domain
- Language
- Task
- Language modeling
Size
How large the model is and how much data it was trained on. Parameters are the figure that decides whether it fits on a given graphics card.
- Training data
- tokens
Training compute
The arithmetic performed to train the model, measured in floating-point operations. It is a measure of what the training run cost, not of how fast the finished model answers you.
- How it was established
- Benchmarks
The training run
What it physically took to train: which chips, how many, for how long, and what that drew from the wall.

- Check references for hardware details.
Availability
Whether you can obtain the model and run it on your own hardware, which is what decides if any of the graphics-card figures on this page apply.

What the numbers mean
Where it came from
GLM-4-Plus was published by Z.ai (Zhipu AI), in the country recorded as China, during August 2024. The category the publisher falls under is industry.
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as performing the task of language modeling.
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
Training and provenance
It is tracked in the underlying dataset for one reason in particular: training cost.
Answers
GLM-4-Plus — common questions
GLM-4-Plus— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
GLM-4-Plus— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
GLM-4-Plus— how many parameters does it have?
No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.
GLM-4-Plus— who created it?
It was published by Z.ai (Zhipu AI), based in China, an organisation categorised as industry.
GLM-4-Plus— when was it released?
It was published in August 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
GLM-4-Plus— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as handling the task of language modeling. A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
