GLM 4.7 Flash vs o3 Pro
Updated October 21, 2026. 2 benchmarks have a result for both. Coding is ranked on the Vibe Coding Index; every other board is shown as published.
Decision reading
Neither model has a coding score yet, so the two cannot be ranked on coding.
GLM 4.7 Flash has the edge where output tokens cost 200.0x less, and where what matters is AA Intelligence Index or GPQA Diamond (Artificial Analysis run), where it leads.

What each workload costs
Three fixed token mixes at each model's listed price, so per-token rates become a bill.
Chat turn
1K input + 500 output tokens
GLM 4.7 Flash costs less
Repository review
50K input + 3K output tokens
GLM 4.7 Flash costs less
Agent loop
200K input + 10K output tokens
GLM 4.7 Flash costs less
Listed OpenRouter rates, without cache or batch discounts. A workload that does not fit a model's context window would need splitting.
