GitHub Copilot

Copilot is the safe enterprise pick — deepest IDE integration matrix (VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, Neovim, Xcode), real procurement-grade SOC2 / IP-indemnity story, and tight GitHub integration for PR review and code search. It's no longer the best raw experience (Cursor wins on UX), but for orgs where IT has already approved Microsoft, it's the path of least resistance. The model picker now lets you swap between GPT, Claude, and Gemini for chat and edits.

What it's good for

1
Org-wide rollouts where security review and SSO matter more than cutting-edge UX
2
Inline autocomplete during normal coding — ghost-text suggestions that you tab to accept
3
PR review on github.com — Copilot leaves first-pass comments before a human reviewer
4
Chat in JetBrains / Visual Studio where Cursor isn't an option
5
Workspace-wide questions ("where do we handle auth?") via @workspace in chat

How to use it

Install the Copilot extension in your IDE of choice and accept ghost-text suggestions with Tab. For larger work, open Copilot Chat (Ctrl+I for inline edits, Ctrl+Alt+I for the panel) and reference files with #. Switch the chat model from the picker depending on the task — Claude for refactors, GPT for explanations. On github.com, enable Copilot code review on PRs to get an automated first pass before human eyes.
