GitHub Copilot is an AI pair programmer that integrates directly into various IDEs, offering code suggestions, chat assistance, and automated code fixes. While it doesn't offer a drag-and-drop UI builder or direct API/database integrations for building internal tools in the same way Retool does, it provides a powerful code editor and AI capabilities for developers. It focuses on enhancing the coding experience and automating development tasks rather than building full-fledged applications with visual interfaces. It does offer AI/LLM integration, natural language app generation (through its agent mode and chat), source control integration (being a GitHub product), security and permissions (especially for business and enterprise plans), and usage analytics.

I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API is actually documented properly.

Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
