What they make
Poe, as ToolGPA grades it: five subjects, a letter for each, and a GPA.
Poe
One app for chatting with AI models from many different labs
AI AssistantsFrom $4.17 per month, billed yearlyFree plan4.7 on the App Store
3.4GPA
Best for comparing many AI models on one account. The awkward bit is the points: everything is metered in them, and Poe doesn't say how many a free account gets.
