Call GET https://coolhandlabs.com/api/v2/inference_apis?q[source_api_eq]=vertex&q[model_eq]=glm-5-maas — free, no API key required, and scoped to just this model since source_api and model together are unique. See https://coolhandlabs.com/docs for the full REST API reference.
Coolhand also tracks GLM-4.7 Free, GLM-5 Free, GLM-5, GLM-5.1, GLM-5.2, and GLM-4.5 from zhipu. Some may already be deprecated, so check each model's status alongside its current pricing.
