Read the full description
Glimpse is Elorian’s visual thinking model, a research preview that reasons about the physical world from what it sees. It follows objects through motion and changing viewpoints, and uses tools to write code, transform images, and watch videos. Elorian says it beats GPT-6 Astra on four multimodal benchmarks. API at $0.60 per million input tokens and $3.00 per million output. Free to try on the Elorian platform.

No Glimpse is a proprietary multimodal visual reasoning model that claims to beat frontier models on benchmarks, and building a comparable model requires large-scale training data, compute, and ML research expertise.
What it would actually take: A real version requires a large vision-language or video model trained on massive multimodal datasets, with architectures for object tracking across viewpoints and tool use. This takes ML research teams, extensive GPU clusters for pretraining and evaluation, and curated datasets for physical-world reasoning. A thin wrapper around an existing API would not match the described capabilities.
