Nivana vs Poe

Poe and Nivana both put many AI models in one app. On Poe you choose which model or bot to talk to; on Nivana the router chooses for each message, and tells you what it chose.

The short version

  • Choose Poe if you want to pick models and bots yourself, including community-made bots, and you are happy with a subscription.
  • Choose Nivana if you would rather not track which model is best this month: the router measures every model weekly and picks per message, and you pay only for what you use.

What you get with Nivana

  • Every model, picked for you. Each message goes to the model that measures best for it among 14 from 8 labs: Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, Mistral, Kimi and Meta. Every answer says which one answered and why.
  • Pay as you go. 2,000 free credits to start, then packs from $5. No subscription, and credits never expire.
  • Web search with sources when an answer depends on current information.
  • Images, video and music, plus reading images and PDFs and voice input.
  • Private by default. Zero data retention requested from every provider; private chats are never stored.
  • On the web, macOS and iOS (beta).

Can I still see which model answered?

Yes. Every answer names the model and why it was chosen, and the Router Index publishes the router’s decisions for every kind of request.
