Deepseek V4 Pro vs GLM 4.5 Air (free)

DeepSeek V4 Pro is a large-scale Mixture-of-Experts model from DeepSeek with 1.6T total parameters and 49B active parameters, supporting a 1M-token context window. It is designed for advanced reasoning, coding, and long-horizon agent workflows, delivering strong results across knowledge, mathematics, and software engineering benchmarks. Built on the same architecture as DeepSeek V4 Flash, it adds a hybrid attention system for efficient long-context processing and supports multiple reasoning modes to balance speed and depth based on the task. It is well suited for demanding workloads such as full-codebase analysis, multi-step automation, and large-scale information synthesis, where both performance and efficiency are essential.

GLM-4.5-Air is the lightweight version of our newest flagship model family, designed specifically for agent-focused applications. Like GLM-4.5, it uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, but with a smaller parameter footprint. GLM-4.5-Air also supports hybrid inference modes, including a "thinking mode" for deeper reasoning and tool usage, and a "non-thinking mode" for real-time interactions.
