GitHub Copilot Pricing: Free, Pro, Pro+, Business, and Enterprise

GitHub Copilot Pricing at a Glance

GitHub Copilot now has five main commercial tiers: Free, Pro, Pro+, Business, and Enterprise. The lowest paid entry point is Copilot Pro at $10 per month or $100 per year, which works out to about $8.33 per month on annual billing.

What You Actually Pay For

Copilot Free is no longer a throwaway tier. It gives individual users select model access, 2,000 code completions per month, and 50 premium requests. Pro removes the main everyday caps for most solo developers and is the best value plan if you want unlimited code completions plus a materially larger premium-request pool.

Pro+ is the power-user tier. It is priced like a serious professional tool, but the jump buys far more premium requests, access to the widest model set, and extras such as GitHub Spark. Business and Enterprise shift the product from personal productivity to managed rollout, with per-seat billing, admin controls, and higher per-user allowances.

Costs and Caveats to Watch

• Additional premium requests cost $0.04 each.
• GitHub announced on April 10, 2026 that new Copilot Pro trials are paused, even though older pricing references may still mention a 30-day trial.
• Business and Enterprise pricing is per granted seat per month, so inactive seat management matters.
• GitHub also offers Copilot Pro at no cost to verified students, teachers, and certain open source maintainers.

Best Value by Buyer Type

For most individuals, Copilot Pro is the pricing sweet spot. For teams already standardized on GitHub, Copilot Business is the practical starting plan because it adds the management and policy layer missing from consumer tiers. Pro+ only makes sense if you know you will consume frontier-model capacity heavily enough to justify the jump from $10 to $39 per month.
