GitHub Copilot Pricing

• · Limited monthly access to Copilot coding assistance
• · Up to 2,000 inline suggestions in IDEs per month
• · Monthly Copilot request allowance for chat or agent-style use
• · Access to selected included models shown on GitHub's pricing page
• · Available for individual developers who are not managed through an organization or enterprise Copilot plan

• – Free usage is capped and is not designed for daily professional Copilot use.
• – The free plan does not include the organization management, audit, policy, file-exclusion, or indemnity features needed by many teams.
• – Some models, agent workflows, code review features, and higher request allowances require a paid plan.
• – Eligibility depends on whether the user already has Copilot access through an organization or enterprise.

Use this plan as a trial path rather than as a replacement for a daily developer workflow.

• · Everything in Copilot Pro
• · Higher monthly premium request allowance than Pro under the request-based model
• · Access to all available Copilot Chat models shown for the plan
• · Priority access to advanced Copilot capabilities where available
• · Access to GitHub Spark where available
• · Support for heavier AI-assisted coding sessions than Pro

• – New Pro+ upgrades were temporarily paused during GitHub's billing transition, so availability must be checked live.
• – It is much more expensive than Pro and may not be worth it unless Pro limits are clearly blocking your workflow.
• – It still lacks the centralized organization controls and enterprise governance of Business or Enterprise plans.
• – Usage-based billing and model token costs can affect the real monthly cost of heavy agent or code review workflows.

Use Pro+ only when you specifically need higher model access or more Copilot usage headroom than Pro.

• · Organization-level seat management
• · Centralized policy controls for Copilot access
• · Copilot cloud agent support where available
• · 300 premium requests per user per month under the request-based model
• · Business and Enterprise data are not used by GitHub to train GitHub models according to the official Copilot FAQ
• · Monthly seat billing based on assigned Copilot seats

• – New self-serve Business sign-ups were temporarily paused for some organizations during the billing transition.
• – It is billed per assigned seat, so unused or poorly assigned seats can increase team cost.
• – Removed seats may continue to bill until the end of the current billing cycle.
• – Enterprise-only capabilities, deeper GitHub.com integration, and codebase indexing require Copilot Enterprise.

Business is the safer route for teams that need governance but do not need the full Enterprise feature set.

• · Everything in Copilot Business
• · GitHub.com Copilot chat interface for enterprise workflows
• · Enterprise-level license and policy management
• · Codebase indexing for more tailored suggestions where available
• · 1,000 premium requests per user per month under the request-based model
• · Pooled usage and AI Credit controls for organization and enterprise billing after the transition

• – It requires GitHub Enterprise Cloud and is not available as a simple individual upgrade.
• – It costs more than Business and should be justified by enterprise governance, codebase context, or platform integration needs.
• – Usage beyond included allowances can create additional AI Credit costs.
• – Rollout requires admin planning around seats, policy, data controls, and developer adoption.

Enterprise is mainly a governance and platform-integration decision, not just a higher-limit version of Copilot Pro.
