Command A vs GLM-4.6
Benchmarks, API pricing and specs, head to head. Data updated 2026-06-10.
Command A
Cohere · Mar 2025
Cohere's enterprise RAG specialist — 111B dense, two-GPU deployable, with downloadable weights for private deployments.
GLM-4.6
63.9Z.ai (Zhipu) · Sep 2025
The budget coding-agent favorite of late 2025 — near-Sonnet coding utility with MIT weights and a $3/month plan.
The verdict
These two models don't yet share verified results on the benchmarks we track, so judge them on specs, pricing and intended use. On price the gap is dramatic: GLM-4.6 works out roughly 4.4x cheaper per blended million tokens. Command A also takes 262K of context versus 200K for GLM-4.6.
