The Plural Service Level Agreement (SLA) defines the support services that Humanizing Technologies provides to customers who operate humanoid robots or virtual Avatars under a Plural licence. Support services are purchased separately from the main licence, in the form of service packages. This page summarises the key terms. For the full contractual document, contact your Humanizing representative or reach out via support@humanizing.com.

Service Packages

Three packages are available. Choose the one that matches your deployment type:
Available if your main contract covers one or more of the following robots: Pepper, Temi, or NAO.Base pricing applies to a single robot. Each additional robot incurs an extra charge of 20% on top of the base price.Each package can be booked with or without priority. Choosing the priority variant halves the response and resolution times described below.
Available if your main contract covers one or more virtual Avatars, whether permanently installed on a kiosk or used in a mobile capacity.Base pricing applies to one Avatar. Each fixed (permanently installed) Avatar incurs an extra 20% per installation. Multiple Avatars used in a mobile capacity count as one Avatar in total for pricing purposes.Each package can be booked with or without priority.
Includes everything in the Avatar Package, plus limited hardware support covering:
  • Camera and its settings
  • Microphone and its settings
  • Browser settings
Hardware support does not cover the operating system or the physical device itself. Additional limitations apply when the hardware supplier has restricted customisation options.
Each package can be booked with or without priority.

Support Tiers

Every package includes three tiers of support:

Self-Help

Available 24/7, 365 days a year with a guaranteed availability of at least 95% per calendar year. Self-Help resources include:
  • Continuously expanding documentation with AI-assisted (ChatGPT) search and a Knowledge Base

  • Weekly beginner and advanced webinars — plus access to recordings of all past webinars

  • Technical questions about Avatar, Pepper, Temi, and NAO
  • Hardware issues — HT facilitates communication between you and the manufacturer
  • Software issues related to HT products (Plural, RMS, Remote Control, etc.) — excluding programming tasks

Advanced Support

Available for Avatar Package and Avatar + Hardware Package only. Delivered during the same support hours as General Support. Advanced Support covers:
  • Collecting and evaluating feature requests
