This article only applies to Copilot Pro and Copilot Pro+ subscribers on an existing annual plan who remained on legacy premium request-based billing after June 1, 2026.
What is a request?
A request is any interaction where you ask Copilot to do something for you—whether it's generating code, answering a question, or helping you through an extension. Each time you send a prompt in a chat window or trigger a response from Copilot, you're making a request. For agentic features, only the prompts you send count as premium requests; actions Copilot takes autonomously to complete your task, such as tool calls, do not. For example, using /plan in Copilot 命令行界面（CLI） counts as one premium request, and any follow-up prompt you send counts as another.
What are premium requests?
Some Copilot features use more advanced processing power and count as premium requests. The number of premium requests a feature consumes can vary depending on the feature and the AI model used.
Premium features
The following Copilot features can use premium requests.
重要
Starting June 1, 2026, Copilot 代码评审 will have a model multiplier of 13. This means each time Copilot reviews a pull request or reviews code in your IDE, your monthly quota of Copilot premium requests will be reduced by 13.
| Feature | Premium request consumption | SKU Attribution |
|---|---|---|
| 副驾驶聊天 | 副驾驶聊天 uses one premium request per user prompt, multiplied by the model's rate. This includes ask, edit, agent, and plan modes in 副驾驶聊天 in an IDE. | Copilot premium requests |
| Copilot 命令行界面（CLI） | Each prompt to Copilot 命令行界面（CLI） uses one premium request with the default model. For other models, this is multiplied by the model's rate. | Copilot premium requests |

| Copilot云代理 | Copilot云代理 uses one premium request per session, multiplied by the model's rate. A session begins when you prompt Copilot to undertake a task. In addition, each real-time steering comment made during an active session uses one premium request per session, multiplied by the model's rate. | Copilot云代理 premium requests |

注意
从 2025 年 11 月 1 日开始，针对Spark和Copilot云代理的高级请求将在专用 SKU 中进行跟踪。 这为每个 AI 产品提供更好的成本可见性和预算控制。
提示
For instructions on viewing how many premium requests you have used and advice on how to optimize usage, see Monitoring your GitHub Copilot usage and entitlements (legacy).
How do request allowances work per plan?
注意
Billing for premium requests began on June 18, 2025, for all paid Copilot plans on GitHub.com, and on August 1, 2025, on GHE.com. The request counters were only set to zero for paid plans.
If you're on a paid plan, you get unlimited inline suggestions. Rate limiting is in place to accommodate for high demand. See GitHub Copilot 的使用限制.
Paid plans also receive a monthly allowance of premium requests, which can be used for advanced chat interactions, inline suggestions using premium models, and other premium features.
| Copilot Pro | Copilot Pro+ | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | 10 美元 per month (free for some users) | 39 美元 per month |
| Premium requests | 300 per month | 1500 per month |
| Purchase additional premium requests at $0.04/request |
What happens to unused requests at the end of the month?
Unused requests for the previous month do not carry over to the following month. Premium request counters reset on the 1st of each month at 00:00:00 UTC. See Monitoring your GitHub Copilot usage and entitlements (legacy).
What if I run out of premium requests?
注意
Additional premium requests are not available to:
- Users who subscribe, or have subscribed, to Copilot Pro or Copilot Pro+ through GitHub Mobile on iOS or Android.
If you use all of your premium requests, you can still use Copilot with one of the included models for the rest of the month. This is subject to change. Response times for the included models may vary during periods of high usage. Requests to the included models may be subject to rate limiting. See GitHub Copilot 的使用限制.
If you need more premium requests beyond your monthly allowance set a budget for additional premium requests or upgrade to a higher plan. See 设置预算以控制按流量计费的产品的支出.
Model multipliers
Each model has a premium request multiplier, based on its complexity and resource usage. Your premium request allowance is deducted according to this multiplier.
See Model multipliers for annual plans on request-based billing (legacy).
