Poe

Key facts: Poe, built by Quora, is a single app that gives you access to chatbots from many providers — including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Meta models — plus thousands of user-created bots for specific jobs, from writing help to image generation. You switch models mid-conversation instead of juggling subscriptions and logins.

Plans: Poe is free to start with daily message limits, and a paid subscription raises those limits and unlocks the newest models. The free tier is a good way to compare models side by side before committing to one.

Best for: anyone who wants to compare AI models, and teams that use different models for different jobs. Watch out: Poe is a middleman — the newest model versions can arrive here later than on the provider’s own app.
