Revolut has moved roughly 2,000 engineers from Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex to a self-hosted instance of GLM 5.3, an open-weight model from Beijing-based Z.ai, cutting AI-assisted coding costs by approximately 90%. David Abitbol, who leads AI operations and infrastructure at Revolut, shared the migration story at the AI Engineer conference in New York, detailing how the fintech tuned the model from a "terrible" out-of-box experience of 14-second latency down to 1.6 seconds.
