Our verdict

Choose GitHub Copilot when AI coding inside GitHub and your current IDE is the job — not Microsoft 365 Copilot. Compare Cursor for an AI-native editor; ChatGPT if you only need general coding chat. Scores reflect first-party documentation as of 2026-08-18 — not hands-on product testing. Confirm current packaging, usage caps and credit rates on the vendor site before purchase.
