Sort of — but they solve different problems. Poe is a multi-model aggregator: one subscription gets you ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and many third-party bots. Soriz is 20 specialized life companions with their own personalities and memory. If you want raw access to many models for tasks, Poe. If you want companions who remember your life, Soriz.
SorizPro is ₹399 / $9.99 per month. Poe's paid tier starts around $19.99/month with compute points that meter heavier models. For light use, Poe's free tier is generous; for heavy use, costs climb quickly. Soriz is a flat, predictable monthly price.
Poe has a bot marketplace where anyone can publish a custom bot, so you can find career or wellness bots — but quality varies and memory is limited. Soriz's specialists are hand-built with consistent tone and per-companion long-term memory across sessions.
No — Soriz picks and manages the model behind each companion so you don't have to. That's the point: you shouldn't need to A/B test model choices to vent to Calm or plan a workout with Rocky. Poe is built for people who actively want model choice.
Soriz Calm is purpose-built for mental wellness with safety defaults like crisis-helpline auto-surfacing, and your conversation history builds across sessions. Poe can do a one-off supportive chat with whichever model you pick, but it's not designed as an ongoing wellness companion.
All 20 companions free forever. SorizPro unlocks custom companions and chat import.
