GitHub's AI coding assistant with completions, chat, agent mode and code review
Updated
GitHub Copilot is GitHub's AI coding assistant that suggests code, answers questions and runs multi-step coding tasks inside editors, on github.com and in the command line. It draws on models from several providers and is built into the GitHub pull request workflow.
Copilot reads the open file, surrounding code and repository context, sends it to a selected model, and returns suggestions or proposed edits. In agent mode it can run terminal commands and apply changes across files, and developers accept or reject each change. Usage beyond inline suggestions is metered through AI credits that vary by plan.
Individual developers, students and open-source maintainers use the Free and Pro plans, while engineering organizations adopt Business and Enterprise for pooled usage, SAML SSO, IP indemnity and usage metrics. It suits teams already hosting code on GitHub.
Free costs $0 with 2,000 inline suggestions a month. Pro is $10 per month with $15 in AI credits, Pro+ is $39 with $70 in credits, and Max is $100 with $200 in credits. Business and Enterprise are sold through sales with pooled usage.
Cursor is a VS Code based editor built around agents, Windsurf is an agentic IDE with its Cascade agent, and Claude Code is Anthropic's terminal-based coding agent. Copilot differs by living inside existing editors and GitHub pull requests.
