Important Starting June 1, 2026, GitHub is moving Copilot from request-based billing to usage-based billing. See Usage-based billing for organizations and enterprises and Usage-based billing for individuals. The pricing tables below reflect the new usage-based billing rates that will take effect on June 1, 2026.
When you use Copilot, the interaction consumes tokens: input tokens (what's sent to the model), output tokens (what the model generates), and cached tokens (context the model reuses or stores). Each token is priced based on the model used, and the total is converted into AI credits, where 1 AI credit = $0.01 USD.
The cost of an interaction depends on two things: the model and the number of tokens consumed.
How Copilot usage is tracked and billed depends on your plan type:
Individual plans (Copilot Free, Copilot Pro, and Copilot Pro+) include GitHub AI Credits allowances that vary by plan. For details, see Usage-based billing for individuals.
Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise include per-user GitHub AI Credits allowances that are pooled at the billing entity level. For details, see Usage-based billing for organizations and enterprises.
When usage exceeds the included allowances for any Copilot plan, additional usage is billed in GitHub AI Credits at the per-token rates shown in the pricing tables below (1 AI credit = $0.01 USD).
Note The option to purchase additional AI credits is not available if you subscribe, or have subscribed, to a Copilot plan through GitHub Mobile on iOS or Android.
All prices are per 1 million tokens.

Code completions and next edit suggestions are not billed in AI credits. They remain unlimited for all paid Copilot plans and continue to use their existing counting mechanism.
For most Copilot features, the model used for each interaction is visible to you, so you can reference the pricing tables above to estimate costs. Copilot code review is an exception—the model is selected automatically and is not disclosed, so per-token costs may vary between reviews.
Each code review is billed in two ways: token consumption is billed in AI credits, and the agentic infrastructure that powers the review consumes GitHub Actions minutes.
Starting June 1, 2026, Copilot code review runs will consume GitHub Actions minutes on GitHub-hosted runners. Self-hosted runners do not consume GitHub Actions minutes. Larger runners are billed at different rates than standard GitHub-hosted runners. For more information on runner options, see Configuring runners for GitHub Copilot code review.
You can view your current GitHub Actions usage for Copilot code review in the following ways:
GitHub Actions metrics : Filter by the copilot-pull-request-reviewer workflow. See Viewing GitHub Actions metrics for your organization.
: Filter by the workflow. See Viewing GitHub Actions metrics for your organization. Billing usage report: Filter by workflow_path . Before June 1, 2026, the value is dynamic/copilot-pull-request-reviewer/copilot-pull-request-reviewer . Starting June 1, 2026, the value changes to dynamic/agents/copilot-pull-request-reviewer . See Billing reports reference.
Starting June 1, 2026, Copilot Pro and Copilot Pro+ subscribers on existing annual billing plans will experience changes to model multipliers. The table below shows how the multipliers for each model will adjust.
Model multipliers and costs are subject to change.
