SLA & Make-Good
SLA Clock
The SLA clock does not start when you upload. It starts at pass_at — the timestamp when the intake pipeline issues a PASS verdict.
sla_deadline_at=pass_at+ plan SLA hoursdelivered_at= when artifact download links are available
| Plan | SLA After PASS |
|---|---|
| Activation-10 / Activation-25 | 24 hours |
| Activation-50 / Activation-100 | 12 hours |
| Coverage-25 | 24 hours |
| Coverage-50 / Coverage-100 | 12 hours |
Automatic Make-Good
If delivered_at > sla_deadline_at, the system automatically applies:
- Credit back: the kit credit consumed by this job is returned to your balance
- Bonus credit: 10% of the burn value is added as bonus credit
- Both entries appear in your ledger with reason code
SLA_MISS_MAKEGOOD
Make-good is fully automatic. No ticket, no email, no manual request required. The sole remedy for SLA miss after PASS is the automatic credit back + 10% bonus.
