About Poe

Poe is an AI chat platform from Quora that puts many AI models in one place. Instead of subscribing to each provider, users chat with text, image and video models from different companies through a single account, and can compare or combine replies from several models in one conversation. Usage is metered in "compute points": each message costs points depending on the model, and the plan sets how many points you get.

Best for

  • Comparing answers from several models
  • Trying new models without separate subscriptions
  • Building and sharing custom bots
  • Using one API key for many models
  • Model comparison: Send one prompt to several models and compare the answers in the same chat.
  • Custom bot building: Create a prompt or script bot for a specific task and share it with other users.
  • Bot monetization: Publish a bot and earn per-message revenue through the creator program.
  • One-key API access: Call many models from one OpenAI-compatible endpoint using a Poe API key.
  • Image and video generation: Generate images and video with different models without separate accounts.

Not ideal for

  • Enterprises needing published compliance certifications
  • Users who want a predictable per-message cost
  • Offline or local model use
