I think it'd get you less than a $20 sub to any of the big three. I've used it on OpenRouter and found it kind of expensive for the results, but that might change now that it's open weight and other providers can host it/compete with Z.ai. For the work I did with it, I would've rather used DeepSeek V4 Flash just because it's more economical and still gives good results IMO.
Z.ai does have their own subscription, but I haven't used it because their privacy policy was pretty buns last time I checked.
