Frequently asked questions

How much does the GLM-5.1 API cost, and how much does it save versus the official API?

As of 2026-08-26, Wokey lists input at $0.42 per 1M tokens and output at $1.32 per 1M tokens; the official references are $1.4 and $4.4. That is 70% lower for input and 70% lower for output. Request-time pricing controls settlement, and the vendor pricing source is linked on this page.

Which API forms does GLM-5.1 support, and how do I call it through Wokey?

GLM-5.1 supports /v1/chat/completions (Chat Completions requests) and /v1/messages (Messages requests). Set the API base URL to https://api.wokey.ai, authenticate with a Wokey API key, and use the canonical model ID glm-5.1; you can start with /v1/chat/completions. The Send a request section includes a curl example for every supported API form.

What are the context window and maximum output for GLM-5.1?

The catalog context window is 128,000 tokens and the maximum output is 64,000 tokens. These are separate limits, and a request must also satisfy the upstream constraints in effect when it is processed.

How are cache reads and cache writes priced for GLM-5.1?

Cache read: Wokey lists $0.078 per 1M tokens and the official reference is $0.26 per 1M tokens. Cache write: the vendor does not publish a separate meter, so Wokey also shows — as the public price.

How do GLM-5.1 and GLM-5.3 differ in price and context?

In this price snapshot, GLM-5.1 lists input/output at $0.42 / $1.32 with a 128,000-token context window; GLM-5.3 lists $0.56 / $1.76 with a 1,000,000-token context window. This is a factual price-and-capacity comparison, not a quality ranking; also compare their supported API forms and capabilities.
