Copilot billing system and organization pooling

Current usage limits, reset, and exhaustion stay on the GitHub Copilot usage-limits guide. For whether your plan uses AI Credits or remaining premium-request billing, see AI Credits vs premium requests. For Business and Enterprise seat-contribution arithmetic, see organization credit pooling.

Verification notes

• One AI Credit is defined by GitHub as $0.01 USD; model interactions consume credits at model-specific rates.
• Current monthly and new standard plans use GitHub AI Credits. Remaining annual Copilot Pro/Pro+ contracts that stayed on request-based billing after June 1, 2026 may still use premium requests until that annual plan ends; GitHub then downgrades those contracts to Copilot Free unless the user resubscribes.
• Business includes 1,900 AI Credits per assigned seat per month and Enterprise includes 3,900, pooled at the billing entity. Seat-contribution arithmetic is documented on the organization pooling guide; do not copy those pooled totals into individual Pro/Pro+/Max.
