What it does
GitHub Copilot: Completes and reviews code as you write — Us: Builds the project from a description
Looking for a GitHub Copilot alternative
Copilot finishes your line. This finishes the project.
GitHub Copilot Pro is $10 a month and genuinely accelerates a developer who is already writing code. The assumption is the same as every tool on this page: that you write code. Remove that assumption and a different product is needed.

The GitHub Copilot column is quoted from their own published pages as read on 2026-08-31, not characterised. Where their page does not answer a question the cell says so — on a table whose headline is that nobody publishes the price, that is the answer. Check every cell against their site; that is the point of writing it this way.
Where they are better
Inside an IDE, on a team, Copilot has earned its seat.
Completions, review comments and repo-aware chat where developers already work — that is a real product with real value, and GitHub's integration is the moat it sounds like. This does not compete for that seat. It competes for the project that has no developer attached at all.
The question that decides it
A dollar is a unit you already understand.
Credits are a currency with no published exchange rate. Here the unit is a dollar: what the model provider charged us plus 20–30% — 30% on the trial, Amelia’s Chat AI and Pro, 28% on Pro Plus, 22% on Pro Max — with that rate under the composer before you send and what the answer cost printed on the answer. Free to start with no card, building plans from $10 a month billed annually, and a spending limit on from day one.
And if you want to know who is making these claims: a software company that has shipped for other businesses since 2005.

Questions
Asked, answered
What is the difference between Copilot and Amelia's Agent?
Copilot helps a developer write code faster inside an editor. Amelia's Agent takes a plain-English description and builds, runs and publishes the whole project on a machine it provides — no editor in the loop.
Can it still push to GitHub?
Yes — every project is a git repository from the first turn, and connecting GitHub mirrors your work to repos you own.
