GitHub Copilot Is changing how it bills you

GitHub Copilot is switching from premium request units (PRUs) to a token-based AI Credits system on June 1, 2026. Base subscription prices remain unchanged, but heavy users of agentic workflows, frontier models, and code review features may see significantly higher costs. GitHub has released a billing preview tool at copilot-billing-preview.github.com where individuals and admins can download a CSV of their usage and project their costs under the new system. Code completions and Next Edit Suggestions remain unlimited. Recommended actions include reviewing model usage, switching to lighter models where appropriate, and setting budget controls before the transition.
