What you get

$10,000 in flexible credits across GitHub Enterprise, Copilot, Advanced Security, Actions and add-ons. GitHub is where the world builds software - home to over 100 million developers and the largest source code host on the planet. GitHub Enterprise gives startups powerful tools beyond basic Git hosting: Advanced Security scans your code for vulnerabilities and secrets before they reach production, Actions automates your CI/CD pipelines, and Copilot brings AI-powered coding assistance to every developer. With features like protected branches, required reviews, and audit logs, Enterprise helps growing teams maintain code quality and security as they scale
