Enforcement of Copilot premium request limits coming soon

Editor’s note (June 5, 2025): This post has been updated to reflect new information about the upcoming enforcement of Copilot premium request limits.

We’re delaying the enforcement of Copilot premium request limits. Our goal is to make it easy for you to see how many premium requests you’re using and give you control over your limits and potential expenses. Until premium request limits are live, you can continue using premium models as you have while we improve visibility and controls.

Starting in late May, you’ll see your premium request usage in VS Code, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, and on github.com. This will show your usage but won’t trigger billing or enforcement at this time.

When limits go into effect, you’ll start spending your premium requests and, if you want to go over your limit, you’ll have the option to enable pay-per-request in your settings. You’ll have full control, whether you are an individual developer or an enterprise.
