GitHub added a flow for members to request more Copilot budget when they hit their limit. Requests route to the account that pays for the budget. Organization or enterprise owners and billing managers can approve, adjust or deny requests. Approving a request updates the member’s budget and restores their access to AI credits. The feature is available now.
What changed
Members were blocked from Copilot features once they used all their AI credits.
What it unlocks
Members can request more budget the moment they hit their credit limit.
What you need to act on it
- GitHub Copilot Business or Enterprise plan
- usage-based billing
- not for enterprises with managed users
