> Poe
Poe by Quora is a major AI aggregator and bot-building platform. It provides an OpenAI-compatible API that allows developers to access hundreds of models (GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama) using a unified credits-based billing system. Poe also supports custom server bots via the Poe Protocol.
How we estimated this: the free allowance is converted to a dollar value using the provider’s own pay-as-you-go rates for the models a typical developer would reach for. When the allowance is metered in requests, tokens or minutes rather than dollars, we assume median usage of the cheapest capable model. Because assumptions are involved, the figure carries the est. flag — treat it as an order of magnitude, not a quote.
note: Official FAQ: non-paying users receive compute points daily. Current free allowance ~300 pts/day (cut from 3,000/day ~Mar 2026) ≈ $0.18/mo at $19.99 per 1M points. Consumer chat platform, not an API gateway.

$ Does Poe have a free tier?
Yes — Poe offers a free tier that we value at roughly $0.18 in free credits (estimate — derived from rate-limited usage at pay-as-you-go prices). Always confirm current limits on Poe's official pricing page — free tiers change without notice.
$ How much does Poe cost per 1M tokens?
Poe does not publish simple per-1M-token pricing (it may bill per request, per output, or via a subscription plan). Check their official pricing page for exact figures.
$ Is Poe safe to use?
Uprouter rates Poe as low risk. Rated low risk. a subscription-based router with pricing, authentication and terms documented on its own site. The model coverage is consistent with a real upstream, so data and reliability risk are modest. Risk ratings are editorial, evidence-based, and never influenced by affiliate relationships.
$ Can I use Poe through Uprouter Connect?
Yes — Poe is Connect-compatible. Add your Poe API key in Uprouter Connect (encrypted at rest) and route requests to it through one OpenAI- and Claude-compatible API, optionally behind failover aliases. Uprouter meters the traffic in compute at the provider's listed rate.
Raw community sentiment, shown unblended. Votes never feed into objective data fields like price, risk, or status — and never into sort order.

risk_&_confidence
Rated low risk. a subscription-based router with pricing, authentication and terms documented on its own site. The model coverage is consistent with a real upstream, so data and reliability risk are modest.
Confidence reflects how much verifiable evidence (official docs, probe history, community reports) backs this entry. Risk is our editorial assessment of operator reliability and terms — not financial advice.
