How much does the GLM-5.3 API cost, and how much does it save versus the official API?
As of 2026-08-26, Wokey lists input at $0.56 per 1M tokens and output at $1.76 per 1M tokens; the official references are $1.4 and $4.4. That is 60% lower for input and 60% lower for output. Request-time pricing controls settlement, and the vendor pricing source is linked on this page.
Which API forms does GLM-5.3 support, and how do I call it through Wokey?
GLM-5.3 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-5.3; 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-5.3?
The catalog context window is 1,000,000 tokens and the maximum output is 131,072 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-5.3?
Cache read: Wokey lists $0.104 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-5.3 and GLM-5.2 differ in price and context?
In this price snapshot, GLM-5.3 lists input/output at $0.56 / $1.76 with a 1,000,000-token context window; GLM-5.2 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.
