Summary
Microsoft-owned GitHub has introduced a new Copilot Enterprise tier that allows developers to work with their employers' internal code. This new offering aims to boost Microsoft's revenue in the cloud business segment and better position the company against its cloud rival, Amazon. The Copilot assistant has been shown to improve developer productivity, and the new enterprise tier allows for customization and fine-tuning of the tool on proprietary code. The higher price of the enterprise tier reflects the additional costs of delivering the product to clients. Analysts estimate that GitHub Copilot revenue could reach $3 billion by 2026.
