# Kimi K2.7 Code is generally available in GitHub Copilot

> The notable thing is not Kimi's benchmark scores, it is that a Beijing startup's model weights are now one click away inside the default dev tool millions of engineers already have open. That is a much bigger distribution win than any standalone launch could buy. Watch whether this pressures the incumbent labs on price rather than capability, since open-weight models compete on cost per token, not leaderboard bragging rights.
