GitHub Copilot is an AI pair-programming assistant built into the GitHub ecosystem, suggesting code inline as developers type across major IDEs. It has expanded beyond completion into chat and agent features while remaining assistant-first in character. Business plans are priced per seat at $19/user/mo, with an Enterprise tier at $39. Its strongest fit is teams already embedded in GitHub, where the integration with repositories, pull requests, and Actions is native. A free tier with monthly usage allowances exists for individual developers.
