Zhipu AI opens GLM-5.2 to coding-plan users as shares jump in Hong Kong
The flagship model adds a 1M context window and reasoning modes across Lite, Pro, Max and Team tiers, with API, Chatbot access and MIT-licensed open-source weights planned next week.
Fact Check
The official Z.ai account (@Zai_org) directly confirms GLM-5.2 is available to all GLM Coding Plan users across Lite, Pro, Max, and Team tiers, with a 1M-token context window and API, Chatbot, and MIT-licensed open-source release planned next week — matching the claim precisely. BlockBeats (351084) corroborates the tiers, 1M context, reasoning intensity modes (High/Max), and next-week MIT open-source/API plans. The Hong Kong share jump is independently confirmed by both Odaily (490497, up over 45%) and BlockBeats (351247, up nearly 48% intraday). All claim elements align across an official primary source and multiple corroborating reports.
