Your access to {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} models depends on:

• Your {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} plan.
• The client you use (for example, {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}, {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}, or JetBrains IDEs).
• Whether your organization or enterprise restricts access to specific models.

For a list of available AI models, see AUTOTITLE. For information on how {% data variables.copilot.copilot_chat_short %} serves different AI models, see AUTOTITLE.

Setup for individual use

If you have a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_free_short %}, {% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro_short %}, or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro_plus_short %} plan, you can use AI models directly within {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} without configuring access or managing policies.

Note

Some models may not be available depending on your plan. See AUTOTITLE.

Setup for organization and enterprise use

As an enterprise or organization owner, you can enable or disable access to AI models for members with a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} seat. See AUTOTITLE and AUTOTITLE.

[!NOTE] Models available in {% data variables.copilot.copilot_auto_model_selection %} will follow the policies set for an organization or enterprise. See AUTOTITLE.

{% ifversion copilot-byok %}

You can also integrate your preferred custom models from supported LLM providers by bringing your own API keys. Organization owners can make custom models available for members of their organization and enterprise owners can add custom models and choose which organizations can make use of them. See AUTOTITLE for organizations and AUTOTITLE for enterprise accounts.
