On June 1st, GitHub Copilot got a lot more interesting.

GitHub's new credit-based usage model is now live, shifting AI-assisted development from a flat-cost tool to a metered resource. For development teams, this isn't just a billing change.

It's a reminder that AI usage now has a measurable cost...and should have a measurable return.

Are your developers using AI to accelerate delivery, improve code quality, and reduce repetitive work? Or are credits being consumed without clear business value?

As organizations continue investing in AI, governance, budgeting, and usage monitoring will become just as important as adoption.

Our CEO, Mitchel Sellers, recently shared a practical breakdown of what changed, what it means for development teams, and the steps organizations should be taking now.

Has your organization reviewed its Copilot usage and AI spending strategy yet?

GitHub Copilot Credit Based Usage Is Live - Now What? Well, the day has come, the pricing world has been flipped on its head. What does this mean for us? What does this mean for AI usage as a whole, and what should we do? I'll dive into all of this myself in this post, based on initial reactions in the first few hours of the billing change.

When Does Staff Augmentation Make Sense?

✔ You need senior .NET, Azure, DNN, CMS, or application development expertise without adding full-time headcount.
✔ Your team has a roadmap but needs architecture guidance, code reviews, or additional bandwidth to accelerate delivery.
✔ You want experienced developers who can integrate seamlessly into your processes and strengthen them along the way.
✔ You need short-term or ongoing support for a business-critical application.
✔ Your team could benefit from mentoring while navigating modernization, cloud migration, performance optimization, or AI initiatives.

Supporting Make-A-Wish Iowa is something that holds a very special meaning for the IowaComputerGurus Inc. team.

This cause is deeply personal to CEO Mitchel Sellers and his wife, Lexi, after losing their daughter Nora to cancer. Organizations like Make-A-Wish provide hope, joy, and unforgettable experiences for children and families facing incredibly difficult journeys. That mission matters deeply to all of us.

We were honored to support an event that helped fund more than 33 wishes for children across Iowa. Seeing a community come together to create moments of happiness and lasting memories for these families is truly inspiring.

Thank you to everyone involved in making such an incredible impact. We’re proud to support an organization doing such meaningful work throughout our state. 💙
