I have been using GLM-5.1 with pi.dev through Ollama Cloud for my personal projects and I am very happy with this setup. I use pi.dev with Claude Sonnet/Opus 4.6 at work. Claude Code is great but the latest update has me compacting so much more frequently I could not stand it. I don't miss MCP tool calling when I am using pi.dev; it uses APIs just fine. I actually think GML-5.1 builds better websites than Claude Opus. For my personal projects I am building a full stack development platform and GLM-5.1 is doing a fantastic job.
I'm using pi the same as you. However, I have an MCP I need to use and the popular extension for that support works fine for me.
Really liking pi and glm 5.1!
Why use ollama cloud versus like Openrouter?
The limits seem higher on Ollama Cloud to me than paying for API access. I don't have solid stats on that though. I have an OpenRouter account and the service I am creating is going to need to use that. I will have better measuring stick then.
Recently it had great limits but this month I'm trying open router directly.
