Three leading Chinese AI labs, DeepSeek, Zhipu AI (GLM), and Alibaba Cloud (Qwen), offer powerful, free LLM APIs that cater to different project needs. DeepSeek-V2, with its Mixture-of-Experts architecture, provides the most generous free daily quota and excels in long-context reasoning, making it ideal for high-volume, cost-sensitive projects. GLM-4, a dense transformer model, demonstrates superior performance in Chinese-language tasks and tool calling, suitable for applications targeting the Chinese market. Qwen2.5-72B, another dense model, leads in multilingual coding and mathematical reasoning, making it a strong choice for developers needing reliable code generation and logic across languages, though its free tier is more restrictive.
