GLM-4.7: Frontier intelligence at record speed – now available on Cerebras

Z.ai released GLM-4.7, an open-weight model available on Cerebras Inference Cloud that achieves approximately 1,000 tokens per second and up to 1,700 TPS for specific use cases.

  • GLM-4.7 introduces preserved thinking, allowing reasoning context to persist across turns.
  • The model interleaves thinking before each action, tool call, or response rather than treating reasoning as a single upfront step.

Will it fit?

Weights only, an estimate: leave room for the KV cache. Method

Fits a 64 GB Mac (unified memory) at INT4

About 20 GB at INT4, 39 GB at FP8, 78 GB at BF16: weights only, so leave room for the KV cache.

Z.ai released GLM-4.7, an open-weight model available on Cerebras Inference Cloud that achieves approximately 1,000 tokens per second and up to 1,700 TPS for specific use cases. The model delivers roughly 10x higher price-performance than Claude Sonnet 4.5 while maintaining comparable intelligence to DeepSeek-V3.2 on developer benchmarks. Teams can access the model via Cerebras Cloud starting at a $10 pay-as-you-go developer tier.written, reviewed, cited
  • GLM-4.7 introduces preserved thinking, allowing reasoning context to persist across turns.
  • The model interleaves thinking before each action, tool call, or response rather than treating reasoning as a single upfront step.
  • Migration requires updating the model name while keeping the same API surface as GLM-4.6.
