Try GLM 5.1 on us. Starter credit covers your first requests, then one key reaches all 13 provider routes with automatic failover.
z-ai/glm-5.1
Measured performance
Continuously sampled p50/p95 time-to-first-token (TTFT), effective throughput, and success rate for Z.ai: GLM 5.1. Effective throughput uses provider-reported output tokens over complete request time. Unsupported route and probe-configuration rows are separated from provider downtime, and no prompt or output content is stored.

Full provider & model leaderboard.
13 routes.
More routes give the auto router more room to fail over around provider 429 and 5xx responses.
Gateway overhead is measured separately.
Public status separates TLS/health overhead from full model latency so slow LLMs do not inflate the router metric.
Metadata rollups.
Status samples store latency, outcome, provider, model, route, cost, and region metadata only.
