GitHub Copilot Enterprise is now generally available at $39/Month
Copilot Enterprise allows users to fine-tune its models based on their team's existing codebase, optimizing performance and relevance.
GitHub has officially launched Copilot Enterprise, the premium version of its code completion tool and developer chatbot, priced at $39 per month. This offering, tailored for large businesses, builds upon the features of the existing Business plan, including IP indemnity, with additional functionalities crucial for enterprise teams.
The highlight of Copilot Enterprise is its ability to reference an organization's internal code and knowledge base, providing developers with context-specific solutions within their organizational framework. By integrating with Microsoft's Bing search engine, Copilot users gain access to updated information and resources, further enhancing their coding experience. Additionally, Copilot Enterprise allows users to fine-tune its models based on their team's existing codebase, optimizing performance and relevance.
The integration of Copilot Enterprise with an organization’s internal documentation stored on GitHub repositories facilitates seamless reasoning and problem-solving. As GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke noted, this feature enables developers to leverage Copilot not only for coding related queries but also for non-engineering questions, such as inquiries about company policies.
Furthermore, Copilot Enterprise offers the option for fine-tuning models based on an organization's specific repositories, optimizing the AI models for enhanced performance and relevance. Although fine-tuning remains an enterprise exclusive feature due to associated costs, it promises significant improvements in scenarios involving less commonly used programming languages or internal libraries.
Looking ahead, GitHub aims to expand Copilot's presence across various platforms and workflows, envisioning an end-to-end experience that seamlessly integrates Copilot into existing developer workflows. Dohmke highlighted the continuous evolution of Copilot's underlying technology, powered by GPT 3.5 Turbo.
In terms of pricing strategy, GitHub remains committed to tailoring models to different use cases rather than differentiating pricing tiers based on model size. This approach ensures optimal performance, accuracy, and ethical considerations across various Copilot experiences, aligning with customer expectations for quality outcomes.
Overall, the launch of Copilot Enterprise represents GitHub's commitment to supporting enterprise developers with advanced AI-powered tools while maintaining a focus on scalability, reliability, and innovation in the developer ecosystem.
