Poe is a different kind of chatbot: rather than one model, it hosts many. Quora's service offers general bots from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Meta, image generators such as FLUX and Ideogram, video models from Runway, Luma Labs, Hailuo and Pika, audio models and millions of user-created bots. Everything runs on points. Free users get daily points that reset every 24 hours, and subscribers get more points plus access to top models, which the plan page lists as including GPT-5.5, Claude-Opus-4.7 and Gemini-3.5-Flash. Poe's help center says subscriptions start at $4.99 per month, and extra points cost from $30 per 1M points. Each bot shows its point price, and you can set a per-message budget. The catch is predictability: a long chat with an expensive model can use points quickly, and the newest flagship models may arrive on Poe after their own apps.
