Poe
Every major model behind one subscription and one interface.
FreemiumFrom $19.99/mo
Overview
Poe aggregates the major assistants — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama and others — behind a single subscription and interface, so you can put the same question to several models and compare, or switch mid-conversation when one gets stuck.
That comparison ability is the reason to use it. The cost is that you are a step removed from each provider's newest features, which tend to arrive on their native apps first, and the compute-point pricing model takes some getting used to.
Why We Ranked It
What earned Poe the #8 position in Chatbots & Assistants.
Access to essentially every major model under one subscription.
Side-by-side comparison of model responses to the same prompt.
Custom bots can be built on any available model without code.
Usually cheaper than subscribing to two or three assistants separately.
Large library of community-built bots for specific tasks.
