Sovereign inference — GLM 5.3 Flash

Your sovereign, private GLM 5.3 Flash

GLM-5.3-Flash is the first natively multimodal model in the GLM-5 series: 320B total with just 18B active parameters, outperforming GLM-5.2 across benchmarks at one-tenth the price while approaching Claude Opus 4.8 on coding and agentic tasks. A redesigned hybrid sparse+linear attention architecture sharply cuts long-context serving costs, with a 1M-token context and configurable reasoning effort. A reasoning model in the medium tier, served on ToothFairyAI's AU, EU and US endpoints — private by default, billed in US dollars per million tokens at the published rates below. No training on your data, no vendor lock-in.
