What is Poe?
Every major model and thousands of custom bots in one app.
Who is Poe best for?
Poe is best for people who want chat, image and video models from several AI companies in one app.
Many models in one app
One account reaches GPT, Claude and Gemini chat models along with image, video and audio bots from other makers such as Runway, Luma AI and ElevenLabs.
Bot and app creators
Creators can build prompt bots, server bots, script bots and canvas apps on Poe and earn payouts through its Creator Monetization program.
Developers who want one API
The Poe API reaches hundreds of models in OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible formats and charges every call to the points on one account.
How much does Poe cost?
Poe has free accounts, and its paid subscriptions are sold by points, in five sizes from 10 thousand points a day up to 8.25 million points a month, billed monthly or yearly.
Poe's plans page lists five subscriptions by point allowance: 10 thousand points a day, then 660 thousand, 1.65 million, 3.3 million and 8.25 million points a month, with 17% off for yearly billing. It showed us prices in our local currency rather than US dollars, so we do not quote them here; subscriptions renew automatically and are cancelled through Stripe's customer portal in Settings. Plans and current prices are on poe.com.
