Target Copilot models to organizations with model rules

GitHub has introduced targeted model rules for Copilot, now in public preview, allowing enterprise owners to assign specific AI models to individual organizations rather than applying a single enterprise-wide setting. The update also includes a refreshed interface for managing default model availability, enabling administrators to set models as "Enabled" or "Optional" for all organizations from one page. This feature is available to Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers, providing finer-grained control over AI tool access across their organizations.

Enterprise owners now have granular control over which GitHub Copilot models are available to each organization. With targeted model rules, you can allow specific models for specific organizations instead of relying on a single enterprise-wide setting. This capability is now in public preview.

We’ve also refreshed the experience for managing default model availability across your enterprise, making it easier to see and configure which models are available to your organizations.

What’s new Targeted model rules let you create rules that allow specific Copilot models for selected organizations, giving you fine-grained control beyond enterprise-wide defaults.

What’s improved The default model availability experience has a refreshed interface. From a single page, you can:

  • Choose which default Copilot models are available to organizations in your enterprise.
  • Set each model’s availability to Enabled(automatically on for all organizations) or** Optional**(organizations decide whether to enable it).

Who can use this Customers on Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise plans can use targeted model rules.

To get started, see Managing availability of default models and Managing default models for your organization.
