"Starting June 1, GitHub will switch all Copilot subscriptions to a pricing model that scales with usage. Premium requests will be replaced by GitHub AI Credits, where token usage determines the cost."
"According to the CPO, GitHub has absorbed a significant portion of the escalating inference costs. Last week, GitHub announced it was temporarily suspending new sign-ups for Pro, Pro+, and Student plans due to the increasing strain on infrastructure."
"One AI Credit is equivalent to one cent. Usage is calculated based on token consumption-specifically input, output, and cached tokens-which vary proportionally depending on the model and query used."
"Subscription prices remain unchanged. Copilot Pro ($10 per month) receives $10 in AI Credits monthly; Pro+ ($39 per month) receives $39. For businesses, the same amounts apply as the monthly price per user."
Starting June 1, GitHub will implement a new pricing model for Copilot subscriptions based on usage. Premium requests will be replaced by GitHub AI Credits, where costs are determined by token usage. Subscription prices will remain unchanged, but heavy users may incur higher costs. Companies will receive temporary extra credits this summer. The change is due to unsustainable premium request systems and aims to reduce AI costs. Code completions and Next Edit Suggestions will remain unlimited on paid plans, but fallback options will be removed.
