ChatGPT Plus / Pro vs GitHub Copilot Pro / Pro+

Both meter, at very different prices. Copilot Pro at $10 is the efficient choice for in-editor assistance in the GitHub ecosystem. ChatGPT Pro at $200 is for people whose workflow centers on ChatGPT and Codex's cloud delegation. If the agent matters more than the editor, Pro; if the editor matters more than the agent, Copilot.
