Pick GPT-5.6 Sol if you want the stronger benchmark profile. GLM-4.7 only becomes the better choice if coding is the priority or you want the cheaper token bill.

Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 20 shared benchmark results across 6 evidence categories; 4 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.

Why this result

GPT-5.6 Sol is clearly ahead on the BenchAlign aggregate, 81.96 to 61.16. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

GPT-5.6 Sol's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 87.5 against 1.8. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is FrontierMath v2 (Tiers 1-3), 2.439% to 89.000%. GLM-4.7 does hit back in coding, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

GPT-5.6 Sol is also the more expensive model on tokens at $5.00 input / $30.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for GLM-4.7. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. GPT-5.6 Sol gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 200K for GLM-4.7.
