Details

GitHub has adjusted its individual Copilot plans.

  • New sign-ups for Student / Pro / Pro+ have been stopped, and only Copilot Free remains open to new sign-ups.
  • Existing users can still upgrade between plans.
  • Pro users who want higher limits will need to upgrade to Pro+, which offers 5x or more higher limits than Pro.
  • Limit-access warnings now appear in VS Code and Copilot CLI, and usage-tracking features will be added soon.
  • The Opus model has been removed from Pro, while Opus 4.7 remains available on Pro+.
  • As previously announced, Opus 4.5 / 4.6 are also being removed from Pro+.
  • Users who contact support between April 20 and May 20 can get a refund so that their April usage is not billed.
