One app to chat with many AI models and community-made bots
Poe, made by Quora, brings models from several AI providers into a single chat app, covering text, image and video generation. You can bring other bots into a conversation, compare answers and create your own bots from a custom prompt or code. A free daily allowance is included, and a subscription adds compute points for heavier use. Poe runs on the web, desktop and mobile.
