Poe (Platform for Open Exploration) is a chatbot platform developed by Quora, designed to allow users to interact with various AI models. With an easy-to-use interface, users can converse with excellent AI models such as ChatGPT, GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, FLUX1.1, and many others, each with its unique advantages. Users can choose the most suitable model for conversation based on the characteristics and strengths of different models.
The standout feature of Poe is its integration of numerous AI models for selection. Users can access multiple different AI models and choose the most appropriate one based on their needs and usage scenarios, allowing for quick answers and suggestions, making it suitable for situations that require rapid information retrieval.

Poe Subscription Tutorial#
1. Prepare a Virtual Card
Due to restrictions on domestic credit and debit cards by foreign AI platforms, we need to prepare a usable virtual credit card. Here we recommend domestic users use WildCard (WildCard Virtual Card Introduction and Detailed Tutorial), a virtual card designed by the domestic company Gecko Technology for OpenAI, ChatGPT, Claude, and various overseas software service subscriptions. It can be directly recharged and used through Alipay or WeChat. Of course, if you are a stablecoin user, you can use virtual cards provided by VCard and Dupay.
WildCard Official Website: https://leixue.com/go/wildcard, using the invitation code “LEIXUE” from 泪雪网 can enjoy a discount on card opening.
2. Register and Log in to Poe Account
You can log in or register an account directly through the Poe Official Website. Poe supports quick login via Google and Apple accounts. For security reasons, it is recommended to use a Google account or Gmail registration to log in, although domestic email accounts are also acceptable.
3. Subscribe to Poe
After logging into Poe, simply click the “Subscribe” menu in the left navigation to open the “Subscribe to Poe” pop-up. There is a 17% discount for annual subscriptions.
4. Use Virtual Card for Payment
Choose different packages and subscription periods based on your needs, then click the “Subscribe to Poe” button in the pop-up to enter the corresponding Stripe payment page.
At this point, we need to bind the WildCard virtual credit card we applied for. Check the virtual card information through the WildCard backend and fill it in on the page, then click the “Subscribe” button to complete the Poe subscription payment.
Summary Analysis#
Poe subscription users can use more advanced AI models, which may perform better in specific fields (such as science, technology, creative writing, etc.), and typically experience new models or features as soon as they are released, staying at the forefront of technology. Poe provides paid subscription users with richer features, high-quality services, and personalized experiences, making it particularly suitable for users who frequently interact with AI.
