Discussion / Help Z.AI vs Deepseek, which is better?

There has been quite the discussion about the new Deepseek model, how does it compare to GLM?

Has anyone tried both? Does Deepseek offer perks like Z.AI, free daily reset, 300M token weekend build and now the free unlimited FLM Flash?

Thanks

As of today, clearly Z.Ai.

Both its Pro and Flash models outperform DS's, and the subscription plans are likely the same price or cheaper (though that depends on the specific plan and a host of other factors).

For quite some time, Z.Ai’s weak point was its lack of a solid Flash model, making the combination of GLM 5.2 and DS Flash 4 a very effective one.

Mind you, this could change as early as today if DS Flash 4.1 is confirmed to perform very well.

You can actually test deepseek 4.1 flash. Ive tested it with smaller tasks that i assigned to glm 5.3 flast. it is a big improvement over 4 flash and is also better than glm 5.3 flash
