Our score (0-100) is driven by benchmark performance (90%) from Arena Elo ratings, MMLU, GPQA, HumanEval, SWE-bench, and 15+ standardized evaluations. Capabilities and context window serve as tiebreakers (10%). Learn more about our methodology.
Scores 67/100 (rank #70), placing it in the top 76% of all 290 models tracked.
Scores 68/100 (rank #69), placing it in the top 77% of all 290 models tracked.
With only a 0-point gap, these models are in the same performance tier. The practical difference in output quality is minimal - your choice should depend on pricing, latency requirements, and specific feature needs.
GLM 5 Turbo offers 87% better value per quality point. At 1M tokens/day, you'd spend $78.00/month with GLM 5 Turbo vs $600.00/month with GPT-4 Turbo - a $522.00 monthly difference.
Both models have comparable response speeds. For most applications, the latency difference is negligible.
When latency matters most: Interactive chatbots, IDE code completion, real-time translation, and user-facing applications where response time directly impacts experience. For batch processing, background summarization, or offline analysis, latency is less critical.
Code generation & review
Higher benchmark score (0/100) indicates stronger performance on coding tasks like generating functions, debugging, and refactoring
Customer support chatbot
Faster response time (speed score 0/100) is critical for user-facing chat. GLM 5 Turbo also offers lower per-token costs for high-volume support
Long document analysis
Larger context window (203K tokens) can process longer documents, contracts, and research papers in a single pass
Batch data extraction
Lower output pricing ($4.00/M) reduces costs when processing thousands of records daily
Creative writing & content
Higher overall composite score (68/100) correlates with better nuance, coherence, and style in long-form content
Image understanding & OCR
Supports vision input - can analyze screenshots, diagrams, photos, and scanned documents directly
GPT-4 Turbo and GLM 5 Turbo are extremely close in overall performance (only 0.19999999999998863 points apart). Your best choice depends entirely on which specific strengths matter most for your use case.
