Poe
One app to chat with many AI models and community-built bots.
Free tier; subscription around $20/mo for more usage across models.
Poe, built by Quora, is an aggregator in the chatbots category that brings many AI models and bots together in one app. Instead of juggling separate subscriptions, you chat with different models side by side and choose whichever suits the task.
What it does
Poe gives you a single interface to a wide range of AI models from multiple providers, plus thousands of bots — official ones and those created by the community. You can ask the same question of several models to compare answers, switch between them mid-project, and use specialised bots for jobs like writing, coding or image generation. Poe also lets you build your own bots with custom prompts and share them, and developers can connect their own servers.
Who it’s for
Poe suits people who want variety without managing many accounts — writers, researchers, developers and hobbyists who like matching the model to the moment. The free tier is good for light use and trying things out, while the subscription raises the shared compute allowance and unlocks premium models and bots for heavier, everyday work.
