Key features

Many models, one account

Use text, image, video and audio models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Runway, ElevenLabs and others without separate subscriptions.

Shared points balance

Each bot shows its points cost per message, and one balance works across every bot on Poe.

Multi-bot chat

Compare answers from recommended bots with one click, or @-mention any bot to bring it into the same thread.

Group chats

Invite other people into a conversation and bring in any AI model so everyone works in the same thread.

Custom bots and Poe Apps

Create bots on top of existing models, or describe an app and let App Creator build a visual interface for it.

OpenAI-compatible API

Call Poe models from your own code at api.poe.com/v1 with a Poe API key, paid for with subscription or add-on points.

Use cases

  • Ask GPT-5.5 and Claude-Opus-4.7 the same coding question in one thread and keep the better answer.
  • Generate a product image with one bot and a short Veo-3.1 clip with another, all from one points balance.
  • Plan a group trip in a shared chat where friends and an AI model see the same conversation.

Pricing

Pricing from
$4.99/month

Free users get points that reset daily. Basic costs $4.99/month for 10,000 points a day; Plus ($19.99), Pro ($49.99), Advanced ($99.99) and Max ($249.99) give 660,000 to 8.25 million points a month.

Ways to save

  • Yearly billing saves 17%, for example $199.99 a year instead of $19.99 a month for 660,000 monthly points.
  • Unused points roll over on Plus and higher, up to 1.5 million on Plus and 25 million on Max.
  • Add-on points cost $30 per 1 million, which can beat upgrading if you only have an occasional heavy month.

What is Poe?

Poe, made by Quora, is one front end for thousands of AI models and creator-made bots. Instead of paying each AI company separately, you spend points from a single balance on whichever model fits the task.

What stands out

  • Model variety. Text models like GPT-5.5 and Claude-Opus-4.7 sit next to image and video bots such as Nano-Banana-Pro and Veo-3.1.
  • Flexible spending. Points roll over on Plus and above, and add-on points top up a balance without a plan change.
  • Long context. Paid plans unlock each bot’s full context, up to 2M tokens.
  • Everywhere. Apps cover iOS, Android, Windows and macOS.

Limitations

Points make costs hard to predict, because premium models and video generation drain a balance much faster than simple chat. Subscriptions aren’t sold in every country, and final prices can rise with regional taxes and currency conversion. Free accounts can’t call paid models through the API.

Poe FAQ

Yes. Non-paying Poe users receive points every day, and the allowance resets after 24 hours. Subscribers send far more messages and get more of the top models, and free accounts can't use paid models through the API.

Every bot response costs points, and each bot shows its price, either a fixed amount per image or a variable amount based on how much text it reads and writes. One balance covers all bots, and add-on points cost $30 per million.

It depends on volume. Basic at $4.99/month covers everyday questions with 10,000 points a day, Plus at $19.99 suits essays and content with rollover points, and Pro, Advanced and Max target large files, apps and heavy media generation.

Yes. Poe's API accepts OpenAI-compatible requests at api.poe.com/v1 with a key from poe.com/api/keys. Paid models draw on the key owner's subscription or add-on points, with a limit of 500 requests per minute per user.
