GLM-4.7: New Chinese 7B Model with 128k Context
GLM-4.7 is a newly released 7 billion parameter Chinese language model featuring a 128,000 token context window, offering improved performance for long-form
Someone spotted a new Chinese model called GLM-4.7 that’s quietly making waves in the docs at https://docs.z.ai/guides/llm/glm-4.7
Turns out it’s not just another small release - the specs look surprisingly competitive. The model handles both text and vision tasks, supports really long context windows (128k tokens), and appears to punch above its weight class for a 7B parameter model.
What’s interesting is the pricing structure shown in their documentation. It’s positioned as a cost-effective alternative while maintaining solid performance benchmarks across reasoning and coding tasks.
The docs include API integration examples and show it competing with models 10x its size on certain benchmarks. Whether it lives up to the hype in real-world use remains to be seen, but the initial numbers suggest it’s worth keeping an eye on.
