Changes to GitHub Copilot plans for individuals
As shared in our recent blog post, we’re making the following changes to Copilot plans for individuals as part of our ongoing efforts to ensure service reliability and a sustainable Copilot experience for all users.
New signups paused for Pro, Pro+, and Student
To prioritize service quality for existing paying customers, we will be pausing new signups for our Student, Pro, and Pro+ plans. Copilot Free remains open for new signups, and existing users can still upgrade between plans.
Tighter usage limits for individual plans
Pro+ plans offer more than 5X the limits of Pro. Users on the Pro plan who need higher limits can upgrade to Pro+. Users will see warning notifications in VS Code and Copilot CLI as they approach their limit, and usage progress tracking is coming soon. For more details on how usage limits work, see our documentation on rate limits.
Opus models removed from Pro
Opus models are no longer available on Copilot Pro. Opus 4.7 remains available on Pro+. As previously announced, Opus 4.5 and 4.6 will also be removed from Pro+.
If these changes don’t work for you
These changes are necessary to ensure we can serve existing customers with a predictable experience. If you hit unexpected limits or these changes just don’t work for you, you can cancel your Pro or Pro+ subscription and you will not be charged for April usage. Please reach out to GitHub support between April 20 and May 20 for a refund.
