Cross-Vendor AI Coding Spend Gateway With Per-Engineer And Per-Repo Budget Caps That Engineering Managers Will Need Before The June 1 GitHub Copilot Usage-Based Billing Cutover
GitHub Copilot moves to AI-Credit usage-based billing on June 1, 2026, with model multipliers up to 27x, and Copilot Code Review starts consuming GitHub Actions minutes on the same date. Anthropic already kicked Claude Code off the $20/mo Pro plan. Teams running Copilot + Cursor + Claude Code + Codex in parallel have no unified place to see who is spending what on which repo, and no way to hard-cap a junior engineer's spend before it shows up on a credit-card statement. GitHub's own admin budgets only cover Copilot.
Time-box this hard against the June 1 deadline. Sell to the head of engineering at a 30-100 dev org... they are about to discover that their AI coding bill is 4x what they budgeted and they have no per-team accountability. The integrations are the moat. Don't try to be a 'platform.' Be the spreadsheet they wish their CFO would build.

Each AI coding vendor offers their own usage view and their own budget controls. No tool answers 'how much did this team spend on AI coding this month, by engineer, by repo, across all three vendors' or 'block this engineer from running any model that costs >$0.50 per session.'
