Moonshot AI's open-weight Kimi K2.7 Code model expanded to Copilot Business and Enterprise plans on July 7, but it's off by default and requires admin action to enable.
Kimi K2.7 Code, the open-weight model from Moonshot AI, is now available on GitHub Copilot Business and Enterprise plans.
The model first appeared in Copilot’s model picker on July 1 for individual subscribers on Pro, Pro+, and Max plans. The July 7 update extends it to the two higher tiers. GitHub is calling it the first open-weight model to reach the Copilot platform.
What admins need to do
Unlike the individual plan rollout, Kimi K2.7 Code doesn’t turn on automatically for Business and Enterprise accounts. Administrators have to enable it explicitly in Copilot settings before anyone in their organization can select it.
GitHub’s changelog says admins should evaluate the model against their security and compliance standards before activating it. That framing is routine for new third-party model additions on enterprise plans, where legal and data handling requirements vary.
Once enabled by an admin, users select it the same way they’d pick any other model in the Copilot model picker.
The model and the pricing
Kimi K2.7 Code has 1 trillion total parameters but only activates 32 billion per token. That mixture-of-experts design means it carries the representational capacity of a much larger model while running at roughly the cost of a dense 32-billion-parameter one.
GitHub hosts it on Microsoft Azure. Billing follows usage-based pricing at provider list rates, which GitHub positions as a lower-cost option compared to the proprietary models in the picker.
Open weights also mean organizations can audit the model or run it in their own infrastructure separately, which matters for teams with strict data residency or vendor diversification requirements.
