SERVICE LEVEL COMMITMENTS

We'll provide Builder Studio One support for your app at no additional charge, or upgraded support, if purchased, such as Builder Studio One+. (Enterprise customers get Enterprise One included and Enterprise One+ subscription plan if they upgrade.) We will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the online Purchased Services available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except for: (i) planned downtime (of which Builder.ai shall give advance electronic notice), and (ii) any unavailability caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control (the “Force Majeure”).

We provide a 99.95%Uptimecommitment for customers on the Builder Studio One+ plan and above. If Builder fall short of our 99.95% Uptime commitment and your app is affected, we’ll apply aService Credit for your future use.

For Enterprise customers, we provide 99.999% Uptime commitment.

SLA BREAKDOWN

Downtimeis the overall number of minutes Builder was unavailable during a calendar quarter (i.e., January 1 through March 31 and every three month period thereafter). We calculate unavailability using server monitoring software to measure the server-side error rate, ping test results, web server tests, TCP port tests, and website tests.

Downtime excludes the following:

  • Slowness or other performance issues with individual features (link expansions, search, file uploads, etc.)
  • Issues that are related to external apps or third-parties, including Builder Marketplace
  • Any products or features identified as pilot, alpha, beta or similar
  • External network or equipment problems outside of our reasonable control
  • Scheduled Downtimefor maintenance.

UPTIME COMMITMENT

Uptimeis the percentage of total possible minutes your app was available during a fiscal quarter. Our commitment is to maintain at least 99.95% Uptime for our Studio One+ plan:

[(total minutes in quarter - Downtime) / total minutes in quarter] > 99.95%

For the Enterprise One plans, Uptime commitment is 99.999%.

SCHEDULED DOWNTIME

Sometimes we need to perform maintenance to keep our Services working smoothly. If scheduled downtime is necessary, we’ll give you at least 48 hours advance notice. In a year, scheduled downtime will not exceed 20 hours.

SERVICE CREDITS

Service Credits are not refunds, cannot be exchanged into a cash amount, are capped at a maximum of 30 days of paid service, require you to have paid any outstanding invoices and expire once your contract ends. Service Credits are the sole and exclusive remedy for any failure by us to meet our obligations under this SLA.

Service Credits can be redeemed to add new features or request Professional Services for your app.

Downtime doesn’t affect everyone at the same time or in the same way. For example, some Customer Applications may receive Service Credits during an outage in their region, while others in other regions that have not been similarly affected, will not.

The Service Credits set forth in this SLA shall be considered liquidated damages or your sole and exclusive remedy for our failure to meet Service Levels. Customers shall not be entitled to any other rights or remedies set forth in the Builder Terms and Conditions (T&C) .

Where we apply continued effort to assist with resolving issues that do not directly relate to work carried out by Builder.ai, we reserve the right to incrementally bill via a Service/Change Request for its time spent responding to those issues. We reserve the right to categorize the Severity Level.
