What it is
Poe, from Quora, puts models from many providers in one app: OpenAI's GPT models, Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini, Grok, Mistral, Kimi and image models, plus thousands of bots built by users. You can chat privately or in group chats, and it runs on the web, on Mac and Windows and on iOS and Android.
It suits people who like to switch between models or try new ones quickly. Usage is measured in points: each model costs a different number of points per message, and the most capable reasoning and image models use up an allowance fast. There is a free tier and several paid tiers with larger point allowances.

- Comparing answers from different models side by side
