Compare GLM 5.2 from Z.AI and Step 3.7 Flash from StepFun on key metrics including benchmarks, price, context length, and other model features. Access both models and hundreds of others through the AIHubMix API.
GLM 5.2
Step 3.7 FlashGLM-5.2 is Z.ai’s flagship model for the era of long-horizon tasks. With a truly usable 1M-token context window, it can handle project-level engineering context, execute long-running tasks more reliably, follow engineering standards more consistently, and complete the full development workflow from requirements to multi-platform deployment in a single task.
step-3.7-flash is stepfun's flagship inference model, designed for high-complexity tasks that require deep reasoning and fast execution. It excels at decomposing multi-step problems, performing tool calls, and maintaining consistency across massive datasets. It is the preferred choice for complex workloads such as long-context agents, advanced software engineering, and end-to-end research automation.
