Glimpse vs Tencent Hy4

Glimpse 20

Model reading of the checklist (tool use, structured output, caching, context, batch, SDKs, errors). On 17 October the tool, tool_choice, response_format, structured_outputs, cached-price, context, output-limit and batch readings for this model all came from OpenRouter's endpoints API, which this run doesn't use, so they are struck. No readable first-hand page states them today. Elorian's docs sit on a host that refuses our crawler, and Together's model page says only text, image and video in and text out on a dedicated deployment. Tool use (0 of 20), structured output (0 of 15), prompt caching (0 of 15), context length (0 of 15), batch (0 of 10). OpenRouter's SDKs in TypeScript, Python and Go, and any OpenAI client works (10 of 10, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). OpenRouter's documented error codes with limit_source and remedy hints, nothing specific to video or image limits (10 of 15, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 10 + 10 = 20.

Tencent Hy4 86

Model reading for hy4 on Tencent Cloud TokenHub. Platform facts are the tencent-tokenhub listing's (checked 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Function calling is marked for hy4 in the model list (18 of 20). Structured output marked (13 of 15). Cache-hit price published, ¥0.3 against ¥6 input (14 of 15). 1M-token context with 960K input and 64K output (15). Batch at half price covered Hy3 and Hy4 preview on 1 November; whether it covers hy4 wasn't re-read (3 of 10). OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs with a changed base URL, plus Tencent Cloud's SDK and CLI for the control plane (8 of 10). Errors with code, messages, upstream status and request ID (15 of 15). 18 + 13 + 14 + 15 + 3 + 8 + 15 = 86.

Glimpse 40

Model reading. Elorian publishes no API reference, model card or llms.txt in public. Its docs sit at platform.elorian.ai/docs, a host whose robots.txt answers access denied. The 17 October contract reading rested on OpenRouter's OpenAPI-documented chat endpoint, with no recorded visible download link on a host now paused, and on the parameter list from OpenRouter's endpoints API, both struck (0 of 25). OpenRouter's llms.txt and Markdown docs, including video input (10, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). The launch post and Together's model page name the jobs (visual search, video captioning, dense counting, robotics planning) and the post states limits (token cost, no action outputs yet), but nothing says when not to use it or how video is sampled (6 of 20). Typed parameters for OpenRouter's chat endpoint in its API reference, with no reasoning effort levels documented for this model (10 of 15, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026; the 17 October tool_choice reading came from the struck endpoints API). OpenRouter's examples and error reference, with no Glimpse-specific examples or limits on video length or image count (7 of 15). OpenRouter's dated changelog, with no changelog from Elorian (7 of 15, held as partly met; the dated canonical slug came from the struck endpoints API). 0 + 10 + 6 + 10 + 7 + 7 = 40.

Tencent Hy4 73

Model reading for hy4 on Tencent Cloud TokenHub. Platform facts are the tencent-tokenhub listing's (checked 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. No OpenAPI file for inference; field pages for the OpenAI and Anthropic formats as TokenHub implements them (12 of 25). llms.txt with Markdown copies (10). The model list, updated 9 November, gives hy4's context, input and output limits and marks thinking, structured output, function calling, caching and image understanding; computer use, which Tencent's release names, isn't marked (13 of 20). Typed field pages (10 of 15). Examples in five languages and an error page of 30 codes (14 of 15). Dated release notes, with hy4 added on 4 November (14 of 15). 12 + 10 + 13 + 10 + 14 + 14 = 73.

Glimpse 23

Hosted lines, read on the OpenRouter route. OpenRouter's status host refuses our crawler in robots.txt, so the 17 October reading of it is struck, and Elorian has no status page found (0 of 20). No 90-day incident record could be read. The 17 October uptime figures came from OpenRouter's endpoints API, a JSON data API this run doesn't use, and are struck (5). OpenRouter's limits page documents credit, budget and rate limits and a key endpoint that reports what's left, but sets no request cap on paid models, and no limit for Glimpse was found (8 of 15, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026, openrouter.ai paused on its terms). The errors page documents Retry-After on 429 and 503 and on 402 in-flight budget errors, and says the official SDKs honour it, with no safe-retry guidance or idempotency keys recorded (10, Retry-After alone, the value this run gives backoff or Retry-After guidance by itself; per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). No SLA from Elorian or for this endpoint (0). Elorian and Together label Glimpse a research preview (0). 0 + 5 + 8 + 10 + 0 + 0 = 23.

Tencent Hy4 46

Model reading for hy4 on Tencent Cloud TokenHub. Platform facts are the tencent-tokenhub listing's (checked 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. No public status page (0) and so no incident record to read (5 of 30). Per-model rate limits only in the console and DescribeModelQuota (8 of 15). Six 429 codes, Retry-After and backoff advice (13 of 15). The TokenHub SLA promises 99.5% a month, and Hy4 is Tencent's own model, so the third-party exclusion doesn't apply (10). Released as hy4 on 4 November, a separate id from hy4-preview, with no preview label (10). 0 + 5 + 8 + 13 + 10 + 10 = 46.

Glimpse 51

Model reading. Announced on 16 October 2026, 19 days before 4 November, and still labelled a research preview on Together's model page that day (30). One release, no history of versions or retirements and no deprecation notice period (3 of 20). Elorian's support page says there is no support queue, and channels are email and a Discord server, not tested (6 of 25, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026; the terms' no-support clause came from the struck script reading). No official SDK from Elorian. OpenRouter's SDKs are current (8 of 15). No package or CI of Elorian's to read. OpenRouter's SDK repositories run CI (4 of 10). 30 + 3 + 6 + 8 + 4 = 51.

Tencent Hy4 73

Model reading for hy4 on Tencent Cloud TokenHub. Platform facts are the tencent-tokenhub listing's (checked 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Added on 4 November 2026 per the release notes; the model list and price page were updated on 9 November (30). Retirement notices of 21 to 33 days, no minimum written (7 of 12). Heavy retirement churn on the platform (3 of 8). Dated release notes and announcements, round-the-clock support (13 of 15). CLI replies not sampled (3 of 10). Control-plane SDKs and CLI, no inference SDK of its own (12 of 15). CLI runtime stated, CI not checked (5 of 10). 30 + 7 + 3 + 13 + 3 + 12 + 5 = 73. The model is a week old, so these lines are TokenHub's habits more than Hy4's record.

Glimpse 56

Model reading. OpenRouter bearer keys with per-key credit limits, management keys and OAuth PKCE, no permission scopes (25 of 30, per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026). Training on API data on this route is off according to OpenRouter's policy display for Together (no training, no prompt retention). Elorian's privacy policy trains on Inputs and Outputs from free access by default and says different terms may apply to paid and API use. The 17 October reading of Elorian's terms came from a script on a host that now refuses our crawler and is struck. Whether Elorian receives prompts from the Together deployment was not established (8 of 20, held as partly met). OpenRouter's zero-retention filter and Together's no-retention flag, against Elorian's retention 'for as long as reasonably necessary' with no period (8 of 15). OpenRouter's per-generation activity records for the operator (10 of 15). OpenRouter's security.txt was valid at its last check. Elorian has no security.txt, disclosure policy, bug bounty or certification found (5 of 20, held as partly met). 25 + 8 + 8 + 10 + 5 = 56. Readings of OpenRouter and Elorian pages per the 17 October check, not re-read on 4 November 2026.

Tencent Hy4 71

Model reading for hy4 on Tencent Cloud TokenHub. Platform facts are the tencent-tokenhub listing's (checked 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Bearer keys limited by model, service, IP range and token quota, long-lived with no rotation (26 of 30). The terms say inputs aren't used to train Tencent Cloud's own models, and Hy4 is first party, so no third party's terms apply (14 of 20). Retention only as long as the service needs, no periods (7 of 15). Per-call audit logs and optional full logs to the customer's CLS (14 of 15). No security.txt; Tencent's TSRC bounty covers Tencent Cloud; no certification checked (10 of 20). 26 + 14 + 7 + 14 + 10 = 71.

Glimpse 38

Closed model with weights not released and the open-weight base model unnamed. Elorian's terms sit on platform.elorian.ai, whose robots.txt answers access denied, so they were not read; published terms on a refusing host keep the closed-service value, held at 13 of 30. The privacy policy says Elorian trains on submitted content from free use and gives no retention periods, and the acceptable use policy, updated 19 October 2026, is still titled Privacy Policy and still carries a drafting comment from a terms outline in its markup (10 of 30, held as partly met; the 17 October comparison with the terms rested on the struck script reading). No deprecation policy or dated notices (0 of 20). Services hosted in the United States and subprocessors named by category only, and OpenRouter shows Together as the provider with its data policy (8 of 20). 13 + 10 + 0 + 8 = 31.

Tencent Hy4 52

Model reading for hy4 on Tencent Cloud TokenHub. Platform facts are the tencent-tokenhub listing's (checked 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Closed service under the TokenHub terms, but Tencent's release headline calls Hy4 open source while the weights and system card are only promised 'in the coming days', with no licence stated, and tencent/Hy4 didn't answer on Hugging Face on 11 November (14 of 30). Terms and FAQ agree inputs aren't used for training; the privacy policy renders only with JavaScript and wasn't read (15 of 30). Dated retirement notices and shutdown fields (13 of 20). Processing generally in mainland China for the China site, Singapore for the international one (13 of 20). Every benchmark in the release is Tencent's own or a partner's. 14 + 15 + 13 + 13 = 55.
