A Poe alternative without points

Who Poe is for

Poe, from Quora, gives you many models and community-made bots in one app. You pay a monthly plan in compute points, and every message spends points at a rate set per model, so the biggest models use a plan up faster. There is a small daily allowance of free points.

How MultiScreenAI is different

• Every AI at once. Up to six panels on one screen, each its own chat with its own model. Send one message to all of them, pass an answer to another model to check, or merge them into one.
• No points to count. Each provider bills your own API key at its normal rate and MultiScreenAI adds nothing on top. Many providers have free keys, so you can start at zero.
• Free with a follow on X. The workspace costs nothing right now: follow @MultiScreenAI on X and Pro is yours. A paid Pro plan is planned; what Pro includes explains it.
• Each model's own tools. Claude's web search and code execution with downloadable files, Gemini's Google Search, and image models from OpenAI, Google and xAI.
• Plus a test mode. When you need to pick, one prompt goes to every panel, each answer is timed (first word, total time, words per second), and a blind test hides the names until you vote.
• Your keys stay in your browser. They are never stored on our servers. See how keys are kept safe.

When Poe is the better pick

If you want community bots, Poe's mobile apps, or no API keys at all, Poe fits better.

Switching takes a few minutes

1. Get a key or two. Many are free: see the free API keys, or where to get each key.
2. Sign in with Google and paste your keys. They are kept in your browser.
3. Open up to six panels, pick a model in each, and start working.
