I had good experience with GLM 5.3, but...
Z.AI is the only provider for GLM 5.3 on OpenRouter. I don't see 5.3 on Hugging Face. Not sure if this new model is "full GLM" or something smaller, or if they will like Moonshot AI publish weights but put restrictive license [1], which will again leave Z.AI as single GLM model provider on OpenRouter.

GLM 5.3 weights are not yet released
The release date is supposed to be August 28th 2026
I am happy if they publish under restrictive license. Developing model costs a tons of money and company need to make money somehow by still open sourcing project.
It's not released yet, just announced.
