I’ve been quite content with CoPilot’s $10/mo plan. Still offers access to Claude models (limited tokens) but has no time limits like the $20 Claude plan, so no interruptions in work flow. I use one of the free models for the more pedestrian tasks then sic Claude on the particularly thorny problems. Works very well for me.

I'm not sure if you are referring to the old or new plan?

Github Copilot offered probably the best value and was IMO underappreciated for a long time; I've been an annual subscriber since day 1.

The changes announced a few days ago completely revoke that value proposition, I doubt I'll continue with it.

Copilot was the best deal in AI tooling for a few weeks there.

New pricing model changes that. I will still keep it around for autocompletion (for the rare times when I open up an editor).

Can even buy more premium tokens for more Claude use, which I have done once. But most of the time the tokens included in the plan are sufficient.
