GLM-5.2 (Z-AI’s flagship long-horizon agentic model, 1M-token context) dropped from $0.93 in / $3.00 out per 1M tokens ($0.18 cached) to $0.75 in / $2.40 out ($0.14 cached) between the 2026-07-29 and 2026-08-04 captures of DeepInfra’s /models catalog — a roughly 20% cut across all three prices. The cut is isolated to this one SKU: every other featured model checked in the same comparison (DeepSeek-V4-Pro, DeepSeek-V4-Flash, Kimi-K2.6/K2.7-Code, Nemotron-3-Ultra, Qwen3-Max, Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, GLM-5.1, MiMo-V2.5-Pro) held its rate exactly. GLM-5.2 pricing is not shown on DeepInfra’s main /pricing page — it currently surfaces only via the /models catalog’s Featured carousel.

From DeepInfra's pricing timeline
GLM-5.2 cut ~20% — but only on the /models catalog

GLM-5.2 (Z-AI's flagship long-horizon agentic model, 1M-token context) is cut roughly 20% across all three published rates — $0.93 in / $3.00 out / $0.18 cached to $0.75 / $2.40 / $0.14 per 1M tokens — while every other Featured model checked in the same comparison (DeepSeek-V4-Pro, DeepSeek-V4-Flash, Kimi-K2.6/K2.7-Code, Nemotron-3-Ultra, Qwen3-Max, Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, GLM-5.1, MiMo-V2.5-Pro) holds its rate exactly. GLM-5.2 is not shown on the /pricing page at all — it surfaces only in the /models Featured carousel — making this the first tracked price move that lives entirely outside DeepInfra's main pricing surface (source: deepinfra.com/models 2026-08-04).

About DeepInfra
deepinfra.com ↗

DeepInfra is a serverless inference cloud that bills per-token for language and embedding models and per-inference-execution-time for most other models, with no contracts or upfront costs. Representative per-1M-token rates: DeepSeek-V3.1 $0.25 in / $0.95 out, DeepSeek-V4-Pro $1.30 / $2.60, Llama-3.3-70B-Turbo $0.10 / $0.32, Llama-3.1-8B $0.02 / $0.04. Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-Turbo's output rate rose 33% on 2026-07-29 (from $0.03), DeepInfra's second token-price increase since its 2026-07-14 reversal, while gemma-4-31B-it-turbo was cut to $0.09 in / $0.34 out per 1M in the same update. GLM-5.2, Z-AI's flagship long-horizon model featured on DeepInfra's /models catalog, was then cut about 20% on 2026-08-04 (from $0.93 in / $3.00 out to $0.75 / $2.40 per 1M), the first outright cut since the July reversal began, though its price never appears on the main /pricing page. GLM-5.2 was cut again on 2026-08-28, this time via a new 35%-off promotional tag taking it from $0.75 / $2.40 to $0.488 / $1.56 per 1M — still only visible on /models and /deepstart. DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 was cut again on 2026-09-07 in the /pricing page's DeepSeek table, from $0.08 to $0.06 per 1M input tokens (output flat at $0.18) — its second tracked cut, after the 2026-08-11 move from $0.09.
