GLM 5V Turbo is Z.ai's first native multimodal agent foundation model, built for vision-based coding and agent-driven tasks. It natively handles image, video and text input.
It excels at long-horizon planning, complex coding and task execution, and works seamlessly with agents to complete the full "perceive → plan → execute" loop. Its roughly 200K-token context window suits long multimodal tasks. Hormouz exposes an OpenAI-compatible API. Point your base URL at Hormouz, drop in a Hormouz key, and existing OpenAI SDK code runs unchanged.
Pricing is usage-based: $1.2/M in · $4/M out. Hormouz provides stable access to the model from inside Iran, with no foreign credit card or circumvention tooling required.
