Want every model in one place, and ownership too?

Poe is a clean way to chat with many AI models from one app. AskMojo gives you the same model choice, then adds the part Poe leaves out: you own what you build. Conversations become portable magiks, you export everything in one click, and an engine can run locally. Model-agnostic and yours, not just a shared front door to other people's bots.

What Poe is

Poe, built by Quora, is an aggregator that lets you chat with many AI models, GPT, Claude, Gemini and more, from a single subscription and interface. You can also create simple bots by giving a base model a prompt. As a one-stop place to compare and use multiple models, it is convenient and well made.

But Poe is essentially a front end to other people's models. The bots you make are prompt wrappers that live inside Poe, your chats and creations stay in the app, and your access is a subscription to a proxy. You get breadth of models, but not ownership: nothing you build comes out as a portable, reusable asset, and there is no local option. Poe answers where to chat with models, not how to own what you make with them.

Where Poe stays a proxy

Bots are prompt wrappers, locked in

A Poe bot is a prompt on a base model that only runs inside Poe. You cannot export it as a portable file to use elsewhere.

Breadth, but shallow building

Poe is great for chatting across models, less so for building real multi-step workflows you reuse and ship.

Your work stays in the app

Chats and bots live in Poe with no clean export. Leaving means losing or copy-pasting your creations by hand.

Cloud-only, no local engine

Everything routes through Poe's cloud to third-party models. There is no option to run an engine on your own machine.

Why AskMojo is the alternative

AskMojo keeps the part of Poe you love, one place, many models, and fixes the part it misses, ownership. You still pick GPT, Claude or Gemini per task, but what you build is yours. Turn a good chat into a magik: a reusable skill saved as a skill.md file you read, version, share and re-run.

That is the difference between a proxy and a platform you own. One click exports your whole lab as an OKF bundle, a ZIP of markdown, and an engine can run locally for sensitive work. Same model-agnostic freedom as Poe, plus real portability and the ability to build, not just chat.

Frequently asked questions

Does AskMojo support many models like Poe?

Yes. AskMojo is model-agnostic, so you can use GPT, Claude or Gemini and switch per task. The difference is that on AskMojo the models power workflows you own, not just chats inside a proxy.

How are magiks different from Poe bots?

A Poe bot is a prompt that only runs inside Poe. A magik is a reusable skill saved as an open skill.md file you own, can chain into multi-step workflows, run on any model, and export anytime.

Can I take my creations with me?

Yes. One click exports your magiks, memory and outputs as an OKF bundle, plain markdown in a ZIP. With Poe, your bots and chats stay inside the app.

Can AskMojo run without sending data to the cloud?

Yes, AskMojo offers a local AI option so an engine can run on your own machine for sensitive work. Poe always routes through its cloud to third-party models.
