This was inevitable. It’s the beginning of the end for subsidized AI subscriptions. GitHub Copilot and Claude are transitioning to usage-based billing. Others will follow.

Starting June 1, Copilot’s new pricing structure will be as follows: for $39, you will receive 3,900 AI credits, each valued at $0.01. Unused AI credits won’t accumulate.
