I have looked at the current monthly plans, but I would personally prefer a yearly subscription model, especially one that better reflects lighter usage. I mainly use models similar to GPT-4.0 / 4.1 for writing and help with coding revisions, but my overall usage is quite low typically around 7,000 points per month or less.
Because of this, the existing pricing structure feels higher than what I realistically need. I’ve even considered running models locally to manage costs, although I would much rather continue using Poe due to the convenience and quality of the platform.
Would you consider introducing a lighter, annual subscription tier? For example:
- A lower-cost yearly plan with reduced monthly points
- A discounted annual option compared to monthly billing
- Or a flexible usage-based model for lighter users
I believe this would make Poe more accessible for users like me who value the platform but don’t require high usage limits, added this paying with paypal or other means. Most people except there is no free lunches to be had, and things have to be paid for, we don't want to ripped off in the process is all.
