This shit screams scam. German based company with 3 people that made an ethical AI that consumes less energy than the competitors.
This is absolutely a scam. It's just a GLM-4.5 air fine-tune (or maybe just a wrapper) for $0.5/$2 (input/output, in millions of tokens). The base model they used is free on OpenRouter, and the decision to keep the weights closed makes me suspicious. Also, anyone who pays for a 12B active parameter model has more dollars than sense.
Double the price of z.ai's official api. glm 4.6 (non air) is only a little more then this at .6/$2.2. What a meme.
