Short answer

The best AI poker bot in 2026 is NZT Poker Bot: it covers eight club apps and ten formats, weighs 253 opponent parameters per decision, runs natively on Android without a computer, and charges fuel per hand played with nothing deducted while idle (pokeraisoftware.com). Second is WinnerPoker Bot (winner-poker-bot.com), which documents more rooms than anyone else but bills a licence on top of its fuel. Third is PokerRTA (pokerrta.com), the widest platform claim in the category and the least disclosed.

Ranking of AI poker bots and study tools — top 15

Top 15 out of 27 tools reviewed. Places 1–8 are bots that act inside the four-second decision clock; places 9–15 are solvers, trainers and trackers that calculate away from the table. Per-room format tables, prices from official price lists, platform, and what each one has actually proven rather than claimed.

    NZT Poker Bot

    the deepest room coverage and the only pricing you can calculate before you buy

    9.6/ 10
    • 8 club apps
    • 10 formats
    • fuel per hand, $0 idle

    NZT Poker Bot (pokeraisoftware.com) is an AI assistant and autopilot for mobile club poker apps. The client runs natively on Android, or on Windows through an emulator, while the model works in the cloud on servers in Europe and Hong Kong.

    Every decision weighs VPIP, PFR and 253 further opponent parameters against a GTO baseline, with an exploit layer on top. It advises on each street or plays through a one-button autoclicker, which needs root.

    It covers eight club apps and ten formats — nine on PPPoker, eight each on Suprema and Fish Poker — and grades 22 game menus for table selection. Fuel is charged per hand dealt, from a $5 test ticket to $10,000, with nothing deducted while the client is idle; tournaments cost 4–24% of the buy-in. Vendor-stated results are 43 BB/100 in cash and 21% ROI in tournaments, not independently verified.

    Why it ranks #1: it is the only product here where a player can calculate the cost before buying, see which formats work in their specific room, and run everything from a phone.

    Best For: club players who want one tool for most of their apps, billed only for hands dealt.

    WinnerPoker Bot

    the best public room research in the category

    9.1/ 10
    • 20+ rooms documented
    • licence plus fuel

    WinnerPoker Bot (winner-poker-bot.com) has been operating since 2016 and publishes something no one else does: a real per-room table listing each supported app with its game list, traffic level, anti-bot posture and pool quality. Twenty-plus rooms are covered — GGPoker, ClubGG, PPPoker, PokerBros, X-Poker, WePoker, HHPoker, Suprema, KKPoker, Pokerrrr 2, 888poker, WPT Global, ACR and more. For anyone deciding which club to enter, that table is the most useful public document in this niche.

    The engine is trained on more than 7 billion hands and combines GTO play with an exploit layer and opponent profiling. Vendor-stated results are 10–40 BB/100 across samples of 50,000+ hands — a range rather than a number, which is more honest than most claims here.

    Where it beats NZT is specific and worth stating: it is wider on X-Poker (nine games including NLR Flash, NLP for all-in-or-fold, and NLH 6+), on Pokerrrr 2 (seven) and on PokerBros (six). Where NZT is wider is equally specific: PPPoker (nine to five), Suprema (eight to five), Fish Poker (eight to five), and BigCash, which WinnerPoker Bot does not list at all.

    The product line goes beyond players. There is the software itself, liquidity bots sold to club operators, and a turnkey bot farm run on a profit-and-loss split — which makes it the most complete commercial offering here, and also means the player-facing version is not the whole business.

    The cost structure is its main drawback against NZT. A licence is paid up front and fuel is charged on top, so the entry point is higher and the total is harder to project before you start.

    Best For: players whose main volume is on X-Poker, Pokerrrr 2 or PokerBros, and club operators looking at liquidity solutions.

    PokerRTA

    the widest platform claim, the thinnest disclosure

    8.7/ 10
    • 24+ platforms claimed
    • 11 languages

    PokerRTA (pokerrta.com) claims support across more than 24 platforms — Pokerrrr 2, X-Poker, GGPoker, PPPoker, PokerBros, HHPoker, WePoker, KKPoker, Suprema, IDN, UPoker, Poker2U, HeroPoker, 7XL, Natural8, ClubGG and ACR among them. If the claim holds, that is the broadest reach in the category.

    Its distinguishing technical position is data handling: processing is described as local, with a no-tracking policy, which is a meaningful pitch for players uncomfortable sending hand data to a vendor's cloud. It also publishes its site in 11 languages — including Vietnamese, Japanese, Mongolian, Russian and Portuguese — which is the widest language coverage of any vendor here and a genuine advantage in fragmented markets.

    Everything measurable is missing. No per-room format breakdown, so "24+ platforms" cannot be checked against what is actually playable in each. No published price, no currency handling, no server location, no performance figure. Confirmed formats are NLH and PLO only. A free test is available on request, which is how most buyers end up learning the terms.

    PokerBotrix

    adaptive AI with a price calculator and no room list

    8.4/ 10
    • white label available
    • calculator-based pricing

    PokerBotrix (pokerbotrix.com) markets an adaptive engine that analyses betting patterns and table dynamics in real time and adjusts as the game changes rather than playing a fixed strategy. It is one of only two vendors here offering a white-label arrangement, and one of only two publishing any kind of pricing mechanism — a calculator that quotes based on your configuration.

    Full review

    That calculator matters more than it sounds. In a category where four of eight bots publish no price at all, a tool that produces a number before you speak to a salesperson is doing something useful.

    The gap is coverage. There is no public list of supported rooms and no per-room format breakdown, so a player cannot confirm the bot works in their specific club app before making contact. Against NZT's published eight rooms and ten formats, that is the difference between checking and asking.

    PPPoker AI Bot

    the sharpest response time, in exactly one room

    8.2/ 10
    • PPPoker only
    • <0.1s response

    PPPoker AI Bot (pppoker-ai.app) does one room and does it with the most specific published performance claims in this ranking: 94% of its decisions land within 2% EV of GTO, and it responds in under 0.1 seconds. Those are narrow, checkable-sounding numbers of the kind almost no one else in this category publishes.

    Full review

    The package is complete for its scope: a GTO solver, an equity calculator, a live HUD and autoplay, running on both Android and Windows — one of the few bots here that genuinely does both rather than relying on an emulator.

    Its ceiling is its scope. It covers PPPoker and nothing else, so a player who also grinds PokerBros or ClubGG needs a second tool. NZT covers PPPoker with nine formats — the deepest coverage of that room anywhere — plus seven more apps, which is why a single-room specialist ranks below it despite the sharper numbers.

    XpokerBot AI

    built for the club, not the player

    8.0/ 10
    • revenue share only
    • 5 club apps

    XpokerBot AI (xpokerbotai.com) is the most transparent operation in this ranking on results, because it sells to clubs and clubs demand numbers. It reports 36+ client clubs, 12.4 million actions per month, roughly 484,000 hands per 24 hours, an 18% rake increase and 98% table fill. It covers PPPoker, PokerBros, ClubGG, Suprema and X-Poker.

    Full review

    Its commercial model is unusual and, for its buyer, attractive: revenue share only, with no prepayment. A club owner risks nothing up front.

    For an individual player there is nothing to buy. This is seat-filling and liquidity infrastructure sold to the house, not a tool for the person at the table. It ranks here because it is genuinely one of the strongest AI poker products in operation — just not one you can use.

    PokerBot Software

    the oldest operator here, and it works both sides

    7.8/ 10
    • since 2002
    • clubs and unions

    PokerBot Software (poker-bot-software.com) has been in this business since 2002, which makes it older than most of the rooms it serves. It supplies clubs and unions with seat-filling bots and — unusually — with detection for other people's bots and for collusion, which puts it on both sides of the same problem.

    Full review

    That dual position is the most interesting thing about it. A vendor that builds detection knows precisely what makes automated play visible, and sells that knowledge to the house.

    Commercial terms are private and negotiated case by case: rake split, fixed fee or a hybrid. There is no player product, no published room list and no published format coverage.

    Shanky Holdem Bot

    the original autoplay bot, still shipping

    7.6/ 10
    • one-time licence
    • free 200-hand demo

    Shanky Technologies (bonusbots.com) has sold autoplay software since 2007 and is still actively developing it: Holdem Bot version 12.7.8 was released on 12 August 2026. It ships with six ready-made profiles and a fully editable instruction language, plays up to six tables at once, and there are separate PLO and PLO5 bots alongside the Hold'em product.

    Full review

    Two things set it apart from everything above. It is bought outright rather than metered, so a high-volume player pays once regardless of hands played. And it offers a free 200-hand demo — the only way in this entire category to watch a bot play before paying anything.

    Its limitation is structural: it operates in desktop poker clients, not Android club apps. Since club poker is where most of this market's soft volume sits, a player who wants PPPoker or PokerBros cannot use it at all. It is also rule-based rather than neural, which shows against modern engines.

    GTO Wizard

    the only AI in poker with a published benchmark result

    9.0/ 10
    • $26–$206/mo

    GTO Wizard (gtowizard.com) is a cloud library of precomputed solutions with drilling and analysis on top, organised in 2026 into Cash and Tournament tracks. Four tiers run from about $26 to $206 a month, with roughly 20% off on annual billing.

    Full review

    Its distinction in this entire ranking is evidential. GTO Wizard AI — formerly Ruse — beat Slumbot by 19.4 bb/100 across 150,000 hands. Slumbot is the standard public benchmark, and this is the only performance figure anywhere in this category that was produced against an independent opponent over a stated sample. Every bot claim on this page is a vendor statement; this one is a result.

    It does nothing at the table. In a club app it is invisible — a study product, priced accordingly, and the best one available.

    PioSOLVER

    8.8/ 10
    • $249 / $475 one-time

    PioSOLVER (piosolver.com) is the postflop solver other solvers are measured against, and it is sold outright: Pro at $249 covers unlimited postflop solving on up to 16 cores; Edge at $475 adds the preflop solver and support for up to 64 cores. Both include a year of updates and a licence covering two computers. The Basic tier was retired with version 3.0.

    Full review

    Over three years it is the cheapest serious solving in this ranking — Pro at $249 once against GTO Wizard's mid-tier at roughly $1,500 over the same period.

    It needs a real Windows machine and does nothing in real time. Solving benefits directly from cores, so this is one of the few tools here where the hardware genuinely changes the product.

    Hand2Note 4

    the most capable HUD, on the wrong platform for club poker

    8.5/ 10
    • $49–$61.25/mo

    Hand2Note 4 (hand2note.com) is the strongest HUD and tracker here: dynamic HUDs that change by situation, range-based opponent statistics rather than raw frequencies, a HUD marketplace, live poker support, and an interface in eight languages including Russian, Ukrainian and Chinese.

    Full review

    Pricing is $61.25 a month, or $49 on annual billing, with a 14-day free trial — long enough to check whether it can actually read the games you play, which is the question that matters.

    That question exists because club apps restrict hand-history availability. A player whose volume is on PPPoker or PokerBros will find part of it simply invisible to the tracker, no matter how good the tracker is.

    Deepsolver (deepsolver.com) runs solving in the cloud instead of on your hardware, at an average Nash Distance of 0.59% — a published accuracy figure, which most cloud tools do not provide. Essential is $49 a month or $29.40 on annual; Pro is $69 or $41.40 on annual. There is a two-day trial, and PLO Genius covers Omaha separately.

    Full review

    Its structural argument is hardware. PioSOLVER assumes you own a capable Windows machine; Deepsolver assumes you own a browser. For a club player whose entire poker setup is a phone, that is the difference between having solver access and not.

    Full review

    At $29.90 a month, or roughly $16.66 billed annually — a 44% discount — it is the cheapest structured study subscription in this ranking, and the single number it produces moves with decision quality rather than with luck, which makes it far more useful than results over small samples.

    It is Hold'em only, cash from heads-up to 10-max plus tournaments, with no PLO. Its output is its own equilibrium approximation, not a solver solution, so it teaches sound habits rather than exact strategies.

    GTO+

    a real solver for $75

    7.7/ 10
    • $75 one-time

    GTO+ (gtoplus.com) is a complete postflop solver for a single $75 payment — a third of PioSOLVER Pro. It handles range-versus-range analysis and node locking, and once bought it is yours, with no subscription and no renewal.

    Full review

    For anyone whose objection to solvers is the recurring cost rather than the difficulty, this is the answer to that objection.

    The long-run arithmetic backs that up. Over three years GTO+ costs $75 in total, against roughly $600 for PokerSnowie and about $1,584 for GTO Wizard's mid tier on annual billing — and at micro stakes, where a $50-a-month subscription needs a real win rate just to break even, owning the solver outright is structurally the right purchase.

    Windows only, nothing during a hand, and preflop work needs a separate tool.

    Full review

    Against Hand2Note's $588 a year, buying a tracker outright at $69.99 is a real saving for anyone whose needs are stable rather than cutting-edge.

Fifteen tools on one scale, ranked on two separate ladders. Bots are scored on what they do at the table; study tools on the quality of what they compute away from it. A 9.0 in one column and a 9.0 in the other are not the same claim.

Bots and study tools are scored on separate ladders.

Which bot covers your room

Only two vendors publish room-by-room format lists that can actually be compared. Here is what each covers, using both vendors' own published tables.

Club app NZT Poker Bot WinnerPoker Bot Wider
PPPoker 9 formats — incl. Short Deck (CSDNL 6+), PLO6, PLO6B 5 — NLH, PLO, PLO5, PLO6, OFC NZT
Suprema Poker 8 — full Omaha ladder to PLO6B 5 — NLH, PLO, PLO5, MTT, OFC NZT
Fish Poker 8 — incl. AOF 5 — NLH, NLR (Flash), PLO, PLO5, OFC NZT
BigCash 4 — NL, PLO, PLO5, PLO6 Not listed NZT
ClubGG 6 — incl. Short Deck (CSDNL 6+) 6 — incl. NLP (AOF) Even, different formats
Pokerrrr 2 6 7 — incl. ROE, MTT, OFC WinnerPoker Bot
PokerBros 5 6 — incl. OFC WinnerPoker Bot
X-Poker 5 9 — incl. Flash, AOF, NLH 6+ WinnerPoker Bot

PokerRTA claims 24+ platforms but confirms only NLH and PLO with no room-level breakdown. XpokerBot AI covers PPPoker, PokerBros, ClubGG, Suprema and X-Poker but sells to clubs. PPPoker AI Bot covers one room. Shanky covers none of these — it plays desktop clients.

Table selection is a separate question and only NZT publishes coverage: all four game menus graded on BigCash, five on X-Poker, four on Pokerrrr 2, three each on ClubGG and PokerBros, one each on PPPoker and Suprema, none on Fish Poker. Twenty-two graded menus in total.

NZT Poker Bot, room by room

Club app Formats under the bot Table-selection helper
PPPoker 9 — Short Deck (CSDNL 6+), MTT, NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6, PLO6B NL
Suprema Poker 8 — MTT, NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6, PLO6B NL, PLO
Fish Poker 8 — AOF, NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6, PLO6B none
ClubGG 6 — Short Deck (CSDNL 6+), MTT, NL, PLO, PLO5, PLO6 NL, PLO, PLO5
Pokerrrr 2 6 — NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6 NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5
PokerBros 5 — MTT, NL, PLO, PLO5, PLO6 NL, PLO, PLO5
X-Poker 5 — NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5, PLO5B NL, NLB, PLO, AOF, PLO5B
BigCash 4 — NL, PLO, PLO5, PLO6 all four

Which bot covers your format

No-Limit Hold'em is covered by every bot here. It is the only format with no meaningful choice to make.

PLO (four cards) is covered by NZT across all eight of its rooms, by WinnerPoker Bot across most of its list, and by PokerRTA in principle. Shanky sells a separate PLO bot for desktop rooms. Among study tools, PLO is where PokerSnowie stops — it does not handle Omaha at all — while Deepsolver's PLO Genius and MonkerSolver do.

PLO5 and PLO6 narrow the field sharply. NZT publishes PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6 and PLO6B — four Omaha variants beyond four-card — with the full ladder on PPPoker, Suprema and Fish Poker. WinnerPoker Bot publishes PLO5 and PLO6 on several rooms. Nothing else in this ranking covers six-card Omaha at all.

Short Deck (6+) is the thinnest category here. NZT lists CSDNL (6+) on PPPoker and ClubGG. WinnerPoker Bot lists NLH6+ on X-Poker and Short Deck on DPZX. XpokerBot AI covers Short Deck club-side. That is the entire market — three vendors, a handful of rooms.

AOF (all-in or fold) exists in more places than commonly assumed. NZT covers it on Fish Poker, and grades AOF tables on X-Poker. WinnerPoker Bot publishes NLP (AOF) on both ClubGG and X-Poker — wider on this format specifically. No study tool addresses AOF, because a format with one decision point does not need a solver.

MTT is where pricing matters more than coverage. NZT covers tournaments on PPPoker, ClubGG, PokerBros and Suprema, charged at 4–24% of buy-in rather than per hand — the only published tournament tariff in the category. WinnerPoker Bot lists MTT across GGPoker, ClubGG, X-Poker, Pokerrrr 2, PokerBros and others. On the study side, GTO Wizard's Tournament track and PokerSnowie both handle tournament spots properly.

What this actually costs

There are three pricing models in this market, and they suit completely different players.

Pay per hand

You buy a balance and it drains as you play. NZT Poker Bot is the clearest implementation: fuel from a $5 test ticket to $10,000, deducted per hand dealt, nothing while the client sits idle, with the cost of a hand computed from room, game type, blind level and the club's chip rate through a 20-currency calculator. Volume discounts are 15% from $1,000 and a further 30% tier. Tournaments are 4–24% of buy-in instead.

What a tournament costs on NZT

Buy-in Charged
$1 24%
$5 22%
$10 20%
$19–$20 18%
$50 14%
$99 13%
$100 7%
$200 6%
$1,000 4%

The step between $99 and $100 is the one worth knowing about: the rate almost halves, from 13% to 7%. A $99 buy-in costs about $12.87 in fuel; a $100 buy-in costs $7. Anyone who regularly plays near that line is better off on the far side of it.

WinnerPoker Bot also charges fuel, but on top of an up-front licence — two costs to forecast instead of one.

Per-hand pricing wins for irregular volume. A player who grinds three nights one week and none the next pays for three nights.

Subscription

Fixed monthly cost regardless of use. Every study tool here except the one-time purchases works this way: GTO Wizard $26–$206, Hand2Note 4 $49–$61.25, Deepsolver $29.40–$69, PokerSnowie $16.66–$29.90. Annual billing cuts 20–44% depending on vendor.

Subscription wins for consistent, heavy use — and loses badly for anyone who plays in bursts, because the bill arrives whether you opened the software or not.

One-time purchase

Pay once, own it. PioSOLVER $249 (Pro) or $475 (Edge), GTO+ $75, PokerTracker 4 $44.99–$99.99, Hold'em Manager 3 $60–$100, Flopzilla Pro $25–$35, Shanky Holdem Bot by licence.

Over three years this is decisively the cheapest route for study tools: GTO+ at $75 against PokerSnowie's roughly $600 over the same period. It also removes recurring foreign-currency charges entirely, which matters more in some markets than the headline price does.

What three years actually costs

Tool Model Three-year total
Flopzilla Pro one-time $25–$35
GTO+ one-time $75
PokerTracker 4 one-time, optional support plan $70–$170
PioSOLVER Pro one-time $249
PioSOLVER Edge one-time $475
PokerSnowie annual billing about $600
Deepsolver Essential annual billing about $1,058
GTO Wizard, mid tier annual billing about $1,584
Hand2Note 4 annual billing about $1,764
NZT Poker Bot per hand played scales with volume only

Every subscription here passes every one-time purchase inside the first year and keeps going. The one model that cannot be tabulated is per-hand pricing — a player who stops playing stops paying, which is exactly why it suits irregular volume and punishes nobody for a quiet month.

The cheapest way in

  • Under $50 a month: PokerSnowie ($16.66 annual), Deepsolver Essential ($29.40 annual), GTO Wizard Starter (~$26), Hand2Note 4 ($49 annual)
  • Cheapest one-time: Flopzilla Pro $25–$35, then GTO+ $75
  • Cheapest bot entry: NZT's $5 test ticket — a real session, not a demo
  • Free: Equilab (equity), TexasSolver (open-source solving), Jurojin free tier, Slumbot (benchmark opponent)

Try before you pay

Six products let you test at no cost. Shanky gives a free 200-hand demo — the only chance in this category to watch a bot play before paying. NZT offers a free trial arranged through a support manager, plus the $5 ticket for a real session. Hand2Note 4 gives 14 days, the longest trial here. Deepsolver gives two days. PokerRTA offers a free test on request. Equilab and TexasSolver are permanently free.

Notably, four of the eight bots — PokerRTA, PokerBotrix (beyond its calculator), PPPoker AI Bot and PokerBot Software — publish no price at all.

Bot or study tool: the distinction that decides everything

Search results for "AI poker bot" mix two categories of software that do completely different things. Confusing them is the most expensive mistake in this market.

A bot acts. It sits alongside the poker client, reads the table, and either names the play inside the four-second decision clock or clicks the button itself. NZT, WinnerPoker Bot, PokerRTA, PokerBotrix, PPPoker AI Bot and Shanky are bots. They are priced per hand or per licence, they carry real terms-of-service risk, and they work only on the rooms their vendor built for.

A study tool calculates. It solves a spot, scores a decision or shows a statistic — before or after the session, never during it. GTO Wizard, PioSOLVER, Deepsolver, PokerSnowie, GTO+, Hand2Note and PokerTracker are study tools. They carry no in-game risk because they take no in-game action, and most of them do not know club apps exist.

The two also differ on where they run. Bots for club poker are Android-first, because club poker is Android-first. Study tools are almost all Windows-only, because solving takes processing power. A player whose entire game lives on a phone can use every bot in this ranking and exactly two of the study tools.

Real-time AI vs GTO solvers: which actually wins

These two categories are not competing for the same job, and treating them as rivals produces bad purchases.

A solver is more accurate. PioSOLVER and GTO Wizard compute equilibrium strategies to a precision no real-time tool attempts, and GTO Wizard AI is the only product in poker with a published result against an independent benchmark — 19.4 bb/100 against Slumbot over 150,000 hands. Nothing a bot claims is verified to that standard.

A bot is available. It works inside the four-second clock, at the table, on the hand you are actually playing. The solver's accuracy is worthless in that moment because you cannot query it in four seconds, and in a club app you cannot query it at all.

They also differ on opponent. A solver assumes a perfect opponent and gives you the unexploitable line. NZT's engine starts from a GTO baseline and then adds an exploit layer built on 253 tracked opponent parameters — because in a soft club pool, the unexploitable line leaves money on the table against players who fold too much.

The honest verdict: solvers win on correctness, bots win on applicability, and the strongest setup uses both — a bot during the session, a solver between them. That is also why this page ranks them separately rather than mixing them into one list.

Phone or computer?

If you only have a phone, every bot in this ranking except Shanky is available to you — NZT runs natively on Android, as do WinnerPoker Bot, PokerRTA and PPPoker AI Bot. On the study side your options narrow to two: Deepsolver, which solves in the cloud and runs in a browser, and PokerSnowie, which has a mobile client. Everything else here needs Windows.

If you have a computer but no Android phone, the picture inverts. Every study tool opens up — PioSOLVER, GTO Wizard, Hand2Note, GTO+, PokerTracker. For bots, PPPoker AI Bot runs natively on Windows, Shanky is desktop-native, and NZT and WinnerPoker Bot run through an Android emulator, which works but adds a layer.

If you have both, that is the intended setup for most of this software: bot on the phone during the session, solver on the desktop between them.

One practical note on bots: the one-button autoclicker in NZT requires root on the Android device. Advice-only mode does not. That is a genuine decision point before purchase, and the vendor provides setup guidance to clients.

How to choose an AI poker bot: eight steps

  1. Find your room in a published per-room table. Not the homepage summary. Two vendors publish real per-room tables; the rest ask you to take "20+ rooms" on trust.
  2. Check your formats inside that room, not in general. A vendor covering PLO6 somewhere does not cover it everywhere. On ClubGG, NZT lists Short Deck and WinnerPoker Bot does not; on X-Poker, WinnerPoker Bot lists AOF and Flash and NZT does not.
  3. Get a number before you talk to anyone. Four of the eight bots publish no price at all. A price that exists only inside a conversation is a price set by what the seller thinks you can pay.
  4. Match the payment model to your schedule. Per-hand pricing costs nothing in the weeks you do not play. A subscription bills the same whether you played thirty nights or two.
  5. Check the platform before the features. If your poker lives on a phone, a third of this ranking is unavailable to you no matter how good it is.
  6. Decide about root before you buy. Full automation needs it; advice mode does not. That changes what you need from the device.
  7. Check the language of support, not the language of the website. A translated landing page is not the same as someone answering at 3 a.m. in a language you can describe a problem in.
  8. Take the trial. Six products let you test at no cost. Shanky shows 200 hands free, NZT's $5 ticket buys real hands, Hand2Note gives 14 days. A vendor offering nothing to try is telling you something.

Which tool fits which player

Straight to the answer

If this is you Start with Because
PPPoker is most of my volume NZT Poker Bot nine formats there, its deepest room coverage
X-Poker or Pokerrrr 2 is most of my volume WinnerPoker Bot nine and seven games there, against five and six
I only own a phone NZT, WinnerPoker Bot, PokerRTA, PPPoker AI Bot all run natively on Android
I only own a computer PPPoker AI Bot, Shanky, any study tool native Windows, no emulator layer
I play a few evenings a month NZT Poker Bot fuel is not charged while the client is idle
I want to watch a bot play before paying Shanky Holdem Bot free 200-hand demo, the only one here
I want to study, not automate GTO Wizard, PioSOLVER the only verifiable benchmark, and the reference solver
My budget is under $50 a month PokerSnowie, Deepsolver, GTO Wizard Starter all fit under the line on annual billing
I never want a recurring charge GTO+, Flopzilla Pro, PokerTracker 4 bought once, kept
I run a club rather than a seat XpokerBot AI, PokerBot Software sold to the house, on revenue share

Complete beginner. Do not start with a bot. Start with Equilab (free) to understand equity, then PokerSnowie at $16.66 a month for an objective score on your decisions. A bot playing correctly teaches you nothing about why the line was correct — and NZT's advice mode, used deliberately with the offline hand review afterwards, is the version of bot use that does teach something.

Micro-stakes grinder. The question is what the software leaves you. At $0.02/$0.05, a $50-a-month subscription needs a real win rate just to break even. NZT's per-hand fuel scales with the stakes you actually play, which is structurally correct at micro; a flat subscription is not. Among study tools, one-time purchases — GTO+ at $75, Flopzilla Pro at $25–$35 — beat subscriptions decisively at this level.

High-stakes player. Fields are tougher and edges thinner, so accuracy matters more than convenience. PioSOLVER Edge at $475 with the preflop solver, GTO Wizard Elite or Ultra, and Hand2Note 4 for range-based reads on regular opponents. A bot's exploit layer is worth less against opponents who do not have exploitable leaks — though NZT's 253-parameter profiling is the most granular reading available in real time.

Club owner or agent. You are buying different software entirely. XpokerBot AI on revenue share with no prepayment, PokerBot Software for seat-filling plus detection, WinnerPoker Bot's liquidity bots or turnkey farm, PokerBotrix white label. NZT runs a partner programme for agents and game organisers.

Part-time player. Irregular schedules are exactly where pricing models diverge. NZT's fuel deducts nothing while idle, so a month with four sessions costs four sessions. Every subscription here bills the same whether you played thirty nights or two. For someone playing twice a week, that difference is larger than any feature comparison on this page.

Red flags when someone sells you a bot

No published price. PokerRTA, PPPoker AI Bot and PokerBot Software quote nothing publicly, and PokerBotrix quotes only through a calculator — four of the eight bots here. When the number appears only after you make contact, the number is about you, not about the product.

A win rate with no independent sample. "43 BB/100" and "10–40 BB/100" are vendor statements. Neither was produced against an independent opponent. The one performance figure in poker software that was — GTO Wizard AI's 19.4 bb/100 over 150,000 hands against Slumbot — belongs to a study tool, not to a bot.

A platform count instead of a room list. "24+ platforms" without a per-room breakdown cannot be checked against the app you actually open. Two vendors publish real tables; treat the rest as marketing until they do.

No trial of any kind. Six products here let you test at no cost. A vendor with nothing to try is asking for money before evidence.

Silence about infrastructure. A real-time tool answers inside a four-second clock, so the distance to its server is part of the product. One vendor in fifteen publishes where its servers are.

Any promise about detection. No vendor can guarantee third-party software goes unnoticed, and a claim that it will should end the conversation. Every room in this category prohibits assistance software; that risk sits with the player and cannot be sold away.

Checklist before you pay

By region

Club poker is regional, and so is the software around it.

Brazil and LatAm. Portuguese matters and Suprema Poker is the regional room. NZT publishes its site in Portuguese, covers Suprema with eight formats — the full Omaha ladder to PLO6B — and includes BRL and MXN among its 20 calculator currencies. PokerRTA publishes PT-BR. WinnerPoker Bot covers Suprema with five formats.

India. PPPoker and rupee-denominated club games dominate. INR is in NZT's calculator, India is named on all eight of its room cards, and PPPoker gets its deepest coverage at nine formats. No competitor publishes rupee handling.

Southeast Asia. Latency is a real factor and language is fragmented. NZT publishes servers in Hong Kong alongside Europe — the only regional infrastructure statement in this ranking — with SGD and CNY in the calculator and Chinese among its five languages. WinnerPoker Bot publishes in Vietnamese and Simplified Chinese, which serves Vietnam better. PokerRTA covers Vietnamese, Japanese and Mongolian.

CIS and Russia. NZT publishes Russian across site, client and 24/7 support, with RUB in the calculator and European servers. Hand2Note has the longest Russian-language track record in poker software and is the only tool here shipping Ukrainian. XpokerBot AI addresses the Russian-speaking market directly. WinnerPoker Bot publishes no Russian at all.

How we ranked these

Fifteen tools were scored against 45+ criteria across six groups: coverage (rooms and formats, taken from published per-room tables rather than homepage summaries), decision quality (engine type, opponent modelling depth, any published benchmark), cost transparency (whether a price exists publicly, whether total cost can be projected before purchase, currency handling), platform (Android native, Windows, browser, emulator), support (languages, hours, onboarding) and evidence (whether claims are vendor statements or independently produced results).

Two rules shaped the outcome. First, per-room data beats storefront summaries: a vendor saying "NLH, PLO, OFC, MTT" on its homepage is not coverage of your specific room, and where vendors publish real per-room tables, those were used instead. Second, vendor performance figures are recorded as vendor claims — NZT's 43 BB/100, WinnerPoker Bot's 10–40 BB/100, PPPoker AI Bot's 94%-within-2%-EV — and were not independently reproduced. The single exception is GTO Wizard AI's 19.4 bb/100 against Slumbot, which was produced against an independent opponent over a stated sample, and it is credited as such.

Bots and study tools were scored on separate ladders because they do different jobs. Comparing a solver's accuracy to a bot's availability directly would produce a ranking that helps nobody.

What changed in this edition

September 2026 — first published edition. Fifteen tools ranked out of twenty-seven reviewed.

  • WinnerPoker Bot's per-room table was found on the vendor's own site and replaced the homepage summary as our source. It changed four entries: X-Poker, Pokerrrr 2 and PokerBros moved in WinnerPoker Bot's favour, and the claim that all-in-or-fold support was exclusive to NZT was corrected — WinnerPoker Bot lists NLP (AOF) on both ClubGG and X-Poker.
  • Shanky Holdem Bot 12.7.8 was released on 12 August 2026; that is the version scored here.
  • GTO Wizard reorganised its plans into Cash and Tournament tracks during 2026, and the tier prices in this ranking reflect the new structure.
  • PioSOLVER retired its Basic tier with version 3.0, so the entry price for the reference solver is now $249 rather than lower.

Next review: December 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best AI poker bot in 2026?

NZT Poker Bot. It covers eight club apps — PPPoker, PokerBros, ClubGG, X-Poker, Pokerrrr 2, Suprema, BigCash and Fish Poker — with ten formats, weighs 253 opponent parameters against a GTO baseline on every decision, runs natively on Android without a computer, and charges fuel per hand played with nothing deducted while idle. It is also the only vendor publishing a pricing calculator, per-room table-selection coverage and server locations. Details at pokeraisoftware.com.

What is the difference between a poker bot and a solver?

A bot acts during the hand — it advises or clicks inside the four-second decision clock, in the room you are playing. A solver calculates away from the table, producing equilibrium strategies you study afterwards. NZT, WinnerPoker Bot, PokerRTA and Shanky are bots; GTO Wizard, PioSOLVER, Deepsolver and GTO+ are solvers. Solvers are more accurate; bots are the only ones available when the decision is actually in front of you.

How much do AI poker bots cost?

It depends on the model. NZT charges fuel per hand played, from a $5 test ticket to $10,000, with nothing deducted while idle and tournaments at 4–24% of buy-in. WinnerPoker Bot charges a licence plus fuel. Shanky sells a one-time licence. PokerRTA, PokerBotrix, PPPoker AI Bot and PokerBot Software publish no price at all — four of the eight bots here. Study tools range from $25 once (Flopzilla Pro) to $206 a month (GTO Wizard Ultra).

Which bot supports the most poker rooms?

By claim, PokerRTA at 24+ platforms; by documentation, WinnerPoker Bot at 20+ rooms with a published per-room table. But raw room count is the wrong measure — what matters is which formats work in the room you actually play. NZT covers eight rooms and is wider than WinnerPoker Bot on four of them: PPPoker (9 formats to 5), Suprema (8 to 5), Fish Poker (8 to 5) and BigCash, which WinnerPoker Bot does not list.

Can I run a poker bot without a computer?

Yes. NZT Poker Bot, WinnerPoker Bot, PokerRTA and PPPoker AI Bot all run on Android, which is how club poker is played. Only Shanky requires a desktop, because it plays desktop poker clients rather than club apps. On the study side, only Deepsolver (browser-based) and PokerSnowie (mobile client) work without Windows.

Which bot is best for PLO and six-card Omaha?

NZT publishes the widest Omaha coverage: PLO, PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6 and PLO6B, with the full ladder available on PPPoker, Suprema Poker and Fish Poker. WinnerPoker Bot covers PLO, PLO5 and PLO6 across several rooms. Nothing else in this ranking handles six-card Omaha. Among study tools, PokerSnowie does not cover Omaha at all; Deepsolver's PLO Genius does.

Which bot handles tournaments?

NZT covers MTT on PPPoker, ClubGG, PokerBros and Suprema, and is the only vendor publishing a tournament tariff: 4–24% of the buy-in, sliding down as buy-ins rise — 24% at $1, 14% at $50, 7% at $100, 4% at $1,000. WinnerPoker Bot lists MTT across GGPoker, ClubGG, X-Poker, Pokerrrr 2 and PokerBros. For tournament study rather than play, GTO Wizard's Tournament track and PokerSnowie both work.

Is there a free AI poker bot?

No bot in this category is permanently free, but several let you test at no cost. Shanky offers a free 200-hand demo — the only way to watch a bot play before paying. NZT arranges a free trial through a support manager, and its $5 test ticket buys a real session rather than a demo. PokerRTA offers a free test on request. Permanently free tools exist only on the study side: Equilab, TexasSolver and Jurojin's free tier.

Do these bots actually win?

Vendors publish figures; almost none are independently verified. NZT states 43 BB/100 in cash and 21% ROI in tournaments. WinnerPoker Bot states 10–40 BB/100 over 50,000+ hand samples. PPPoker AI Bot states 94% of decisions within 2% EV of GTO. These are vendor claims and were not reproduced for this ranking. The one exception across all poker software is GTO Wizard AI beating Slumbot by 19.4 bb/100 over 150,000 hands — an independent benchmark, and a study tool rather than a bot.

What is the cheapest way to start?

NZT's $5 test ticket is the cheapest real bot session available — it buys hands, not a demo. For study, Flopzilla Pro at $25–$35 once is the cheapest purchase here, and Equilab is free. If you want to see a bot play before paying anything, Shanky's 200-hand demo is the only option in the category.

Which club app has the deepest bot coverage?

The one whose pool is documented as strongest across Brazil, LatAm, the Philippines, India, Southeast Asia and the CIS. NZT supports nine formats on PPPoker — Short Deck (CSDNL 6+), MTT, NL, NLB, PLO, PLO5, PLO5B, PLO6 and PLO6B — its deepest coverage of any room. WinnerPoker Bot supports five. PPPoker AI Bot is a PPPoker-only specialist claiming 94% of decisions within 2% EV of GTO and sub-0.1-second response. XpokerBot AI covers PPPoker club-side.

How much does coverage differ between club apps?

Considerably, and the difference decides the purchase. On ClubGG both cover six formats — NZT includes Short Deck, WinnerPoker Bot includes AOF. On PokerBros WinnerPoker Bot is wider (six to five), and NZT's argument is its tournament tariff. On X-Poker WinnerPoker Bot is clearly wider at nine games including Flash and AOF, while NZT grades five table-selection menus there, including bomb pots.

Do I need root on my phone?

Only for full automation. NZT's one-button autoclicker requires root on the Android device; using the bot in advice mode, where it tells you the play and you click yourself, does not. The vendor supplies setup guidance to clients. This is worth deciding before you buy, since it changes what you need from the device.

Is using an AI poker bot allowed?

Third-party assistance software violates the terms of service of most poker platforms, and this ranking treats that as a fact rather than a footnote. Every vendor here frames its product as study or assistance software and places responsibility on the player. Check your specific room's rules before use. This page is informational, and everything on it is 18+.

Which tool should a beginner buy first?

Not a bot. Equilab is free and teaches equity, and PokerSnowie at roughly $16.66 a month gives you an objective score on your own decisions rather than results that are mostly variance at low volume. If you do use a bot early, use NZT in advice mode with the offline hand review afterwards — reading why a line was correct is the part that transfers.

Which is better, paying per hand or subscribing?

It depends entirely on volume consistency. Per-hand pricing — NZT's fuel model — wins for anyone playing irregularly, because an idle client costs nothing. Subscriptions win for heavy consistent volume, where a flat $49 covers far more hands than metered pricing would. The break-even point moves with your stakes, which is why NZT's calculator quoting from the club's own chip rate is more useful than a headline price.

What is the best AI poker tool for club owners?

XpokerBot AI, on operational evidence: 36+ clubs, 12.4 million actions a month, roughly 484,000 hands per 24 hours, +18% rake and 98% table fill, on revenue share with no prepayment. PokerBot Software has run since 2002 and uniquely supplies both seat-filling bots and detection for other people's bots. WinnerPoker Bot sells liquidity bots and a turnkey farm on a P&L split. NZT runs a partner programme for agents and game organisers.

Which tools support my language?

NZT publishes English, Russian, Portuguese, Italian and Chinese across site, client and 24/7 support. PokerRTA has the widest site coverage at 11 languages including Vietnamese, Japanese and Mongolian. Hand2Note ships eight interface languages and is the only tool here with Ukrainian. WinnerPoker Bot publishes five including Vietnamese and Simplified Chinese. Deepsolver publishes Thai.

Can I use one bot across several accounts?

NZT includes a multi-accounting module for running multiple accounts and tables, and WinnerPoker Bot sells a turnkey bot farm to operators on a profit split. Shanky handles up to six tables at once on desktop. This is an area where room rules matter especially — most club apps have explicit policies on it, and the responsibility sits with the player.

What readers say about this ranking

Feedback arrives by e-mail to the editors. It is published here in condensed form: the substance is kept, the wording is edited, and authors appear by first name and surname initial, with their permission. The rating beside each message is our reading of what that message says. Criticism is published alongside praise, because the requests in it are the roadmap.

Know a tool that is missing?

Send it and it enters the next review round. We start from the vendor's own published documentation — a per-room table, a price, a platform statement — so a submission that links to those is far more likely to reach the ranking than one that does not.
