3x increase makes sense to me.

GitHub Copilot (the original copilot) is wildly popular amongst professional software developers, and is used more and more as it gets more powerful.

I suspect most of the original paying customer base are developers and they're seeing a 3x usage, primarily amongst them, with a small bump from users of all the other copilots.
