Zhipu Releases GLM-5V-Turbo Multimodal Coding Base Model, Giving OpenClaw Visual Capabilities

Zhipu today launched GLM-5V-Turbo, a multimodal coding base model for visual programming. It deeply integrates visual and text capabilities from the pre-training phase, enabling it to understand design drafts, screenshots and web interfaces, and generate complete runnable code, breaking the limitation of pure text programming.

GLM-5V-Turbo achieves leading performance in multimodal coding, Agentic tasks and pure text coding evaluations with a smaller size. After being integrated into OpenClaw Agents like AutoClaw, it gives them visual ability to understand on-screen information and performs excellently in benchmarks like PinchBench.
