This is happening with GitHub because they resell other models, right? Including ChatGPT and Claude.
This hasn’t happened with the models directly on their platforms yet for the plans that still offer flat rates. Right?
At my company, all of us devs have GitHub copilot enterprise licenses, which was $39/month for basically unlimited use on most models. The new pricing is the same price except we get 3900 copilot credits a month. 1 credit is 1000 tokens. There is nothing concrete about how many tokens are used, but they estimate powerful models like Claude will use about 10 credits per transaction. The more basic models are less consumption, but still count. Code completion is still unlimited. It's going to get really expensive really fast for companies balls deep in it.
For token context, we had someone come in and give us an hour long vibe coding lesson with Claude code.he created a basic 600 line app in that hour and consumed 40000 tokens. I have UI tests with twice as many lines of code. It's going to be a blood bath, and I'm here for it.
