Include One Flagship Model with Venice Pro
Dear Venice Team,
I would like to suggest a change to the Pro subscription that I believe could make it significantly more attractive and provide a clearer reason to subscribe.
It would be great if Venice Pro included at least one current flagship-level text model that could be used without consuming credits, for example, GLM 5.3 or a similarly capable model.
I understand that the most expensive frontier models may need to remain credit-based due to inference costs. However, having at least one strong, modern model included with the Pro subscription would create a much clearer distinction between being a Pro subscriber and simply paying for usage through credits.
For many users, unlimited or fair-use access to one high-quality model would be one of the strongest reasons to maintain a Pro subscription. Additional frontier models, larger context windows, TEE/E2EE options, or especially expensive models could still remain credit-based.
A possible structure could therefore be:
- At least one flagship-quality model included with Pro without credit usage
- Reasonable fair-use or rate limits if necessary
- Credits reserved for additional premium/frontier models, very large context windows, video, image generation, and other expensive features
GLM 5.3 would be a particularly attractive candidate. When it was briefly available to Pro users without consuming credits, it made the Pro subscription considerably more compelling.
I hope you will consider something along these lines. I think it would strengthen the value proposition of Venice Pro and give users a clear reason to subscribe on an ongoing basis rather than relying mainly on pay-per-use credits.

I also don’t understand why the latest update of GLM isn’t included in Pro plan like the previous ones were. I’d like an explanation...
