Hi everyone! I've been exploring Poe for a few weeks, mainly using it to get quick answers about CRM data formatting and email campaign ideas. It's super convenient to have so many models in one place.
But I've been reading about their role with open source models. They offer access to things like Llama and Mistral, which is great, but it got me thinking: is Poe essentially just an aggregator or a middleman? Or do they have a real commitment to the open source ecosystem itself?
I'm trying to understand their long-term play. For someone like me who's interested in how these tools might integrate with sales automation platforms down the line, it matters whether they're just piping in models from others or if they're actively contributing and supporting that development. Does anyone have insights into their actual contributions or partnerships with open source projects? The convenience is undeniable, but I'm curious about the substance behind it.
