GitHub Copilot CLI vs Claude Code: Features, Pricing and User Reviews 2026

GitHub Copilot CLI comes with every Copilot plan, from free to enterprise. The Free plan costs nothing and gives you 2,000 completions a month along with basic models and the CLI itself.

For individuals, the Pro plan is $10 per user each month and unlocks unlimited completions, Cloud Agent access, Code Review, and third-party agents like Claude Code, plus $15 in monthly AI credits. Pro+ moves up to $39 a month with premium Opus models and $70 in credits, while Max costs $100 a month with priority access and $200 in monthly credits.

Teams can choose Business at $19 per user a month for pooled credits and admin controls, or Enterprise at $39 per user a month for organization wide rollout with larger pooled credits and premium support.

Claude Code is included as part of Anthropic's Claude plans rather than sold separately.

• Free ($0/month): Lets you chat with Claude but does not include Claude Code access.

• Pro ($17 to $20/month): Adds Claude Code along with Claude Cowork, Claude Design, more usage, and access to more models.

• Max (from $100/month): Everything in Pro with 5x or 20x more usage, higher output limits, and priority access.

• Team ($20 to $125 per seat/month): Built for teams of 2 to 150, with Standard and Premium seats, admin controls, and single sign-on.

• Enterprise (Custom pricing): Adds spend limits, audit logs, compliance tools, and usage billed at API rates.
