Project Lens

For teams building with GitHub Copilot

Know what your AI proof of concept costs before you build it.

Describe the idea in plain words. Get the Copilot credits to build it, the range to plan for, the monthly cost to run it, and a report your approver can sign.

Prices as of Oct 16, 2026. Every cost is computed by the estimator, not by AI.

How it works

From an idea to an approved budget, in three steps.

  1. Step 1

    Describe it

    Write the idea the way you'd explain it to a colleague. No feature list or spreadsheet needed.

  2. Step 2

    Scope it

    The scoper asks up to 3 questions, rates each feature against a rubric and checks its own work. You review, edit or add features before anything is saved.

    Drafted with AI · costs by the estimator
  3. Step 3

    Get it approved

    Send your approver one link to the report and a prefilled workbook. Their sign-off is recorded with the version they saw.

Features

Everything a budget conversation needs.

Quick Estimate

A size or a feature list, your team and model choices: credits, dollars, the range and the running cost in seconds.

Scope an Idea

Turn a paragraph into rated features and a full estimate, with every step shown and nothing saved until you accept it.

Approval Links

Approvers read the report and approve or decline without an account. You see who decided, and when.

Versions and Changes

A change request makes the next version and keeps every approved feature exactly as it was, so you can see how the cost moved.

Calibrated to Your Team

Upload your Copilot usage report, and every new estimate uses what your team really spends.

Your Own Model Key

Add your company's Anthropic key to scope as much as you need. It's sealed and never shown again.

The range

A range your approver can trust, not a single guess.

  • Every estimate is simulated 5,000 times with every assumption varying together.

  • Likely (P50) is what to expect. To approve (P90) covers 9 in 10 simulated builds, so the budget holds when things take longer.

  • Same inputs, same answer. The numbers come from list prices and documented assumptions, so a rerun gives the same figures.

Copilot credits to build it.

Built to be trusted

AI drafts the scope. Code does the math.

Costs come from code

Credits, dollars and ranges are computed by a deterministic estimator from list prices. The AI never produces a number.

Your ideas stay yours

Ideas, answers and features are visible only to your workspace, and never appear in error reports or logs.

Approvals on the record

Each decision is tied to the exact version the approver saw, with the person and the time.

Need more runs in a month? Buy 10 runs for ₹1,199 or 50 runs for ₹4,999, paid once and used after the plan's own runs. Extra runs are kept 12 months.

Prices are monthly, in Indian rupees including 18% GST, paid through Razorpay. Cancel any time: the plan stays on until the end of the month you paid for. A quick estimate never uses a run.

Questions

Good to know

Does AI calculate the cost?

No. AI helps turn your idea into a list of rated features. Every credit, dollar and range is computed by the estimator from list prices and documented assumptions, and the same inputs always give the same answer.

What happens to the idea I describe?

It's sent to the AI model only to draft your scope, and saved in your workspace, where only its members can see it. It is never used to train a model.

Which costs does it cover?

The GitHub Copilot credits and dollars to build the proof of concept, any additional usage beyond your plan's included credits, and the monthly Amazon Bedrock cost to run it.

Can I use my company's own Anthropic key?

Yes. Add it in Settings. It's checked once, sealed and never shown again, and scoping on your key doesn't use your plan's included runs.

Does my approver need an account?

No. They open the link you send, confirm with a code sent to their email, and approve or decline.
