glm-5.2 is a Z.ai chat and completion model you can call through flatkey.ai's OpenAI-compatible API.

One API key covers GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Seedance and 500+ other models, so you can switch models without changing SDKs or juggling separate accounts. Billing is prepaid with live usage analytics and a single invoice, which keeps spend predictable as you scale.
