FAQ

What is Poe?

Poe is a multi-model AI platform created by Quora. It provides access to dozens of AI models — including GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, DALL-E, and Stable Diffusion — plus thousands of user-created custom bots built on those models. One Poe subscription unlocks all models. Think of it as a universal AI app store where you can try any model without managing separate subscriptions.

Is Poe free?

Poe has a free tier with limited daily messages per model (some smaller models are fully free; flagship GPT and Claude models require credits). Poe Pro (~$19.99/mo) provides 1,000 credits/day for premium models. Annual plan ($16.67/mo) saves ~17%. Credits reset daily.

How does Poe compare to ChatGPT Plus?

ChatGPT Plus ($20/mo) gives you OpenAI's models only. Poe Pro ($20/mo) gives you GPT, Claude, Gemini, and 100+ other models. For users who want to compare models or need Claude or Gemini in addition to GPT, Poe provides significantly more value per dollar. ChatGPT Plus has DALL-E, browsing, and code interpreter; Poe has more model variety.

Can I create bots on Poe?

Yes. Poe's bot creator lets anyone build and publish custom AI bots. You define a system prompt and choose a base model (Claude, GPT, etc.). Bots can be private or public. The Poe API lets developers build bots that Poe hosts and serves to its 30M+ users — a distribution channel for AI products without managing infrastructure.
