AI Agent Oversight Pack — SLA & Scope
(v1.0, 2025)
The AI Agent Oversight Pack provides annual governance assurance for customer-facing and internal AI agents. This document defines the service scope, monitoring cadence, and client responsibilities.
1. Service Scope
Covered Agent Types
- Reception & call answering agents
- Customer support & FAQ agents
- Knowledge retrieval agents (internal or external)
- Social media posting agents
- Workflow automation agents (simple decision support)
Included Governance Controls
- Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) escalation procedures
- Logging & retention policy
- Bias & safety testing (scenario-driven)
- Incident & escalation playbook
- Hosting & assurance documentation (third-party vetted)
2. Service Level Agreement (SLA)
Monitoring Cadence
- Monthly: Bias & safety sampling (20–50 test prompts per agent).
- Quarterly: Review of logs, HITL escalations, and refusal handling.
- Annually: Full Oversight Report with findings and recommendations.
Response Targets
- Critical failures (unsafe completions, data leakage): reported within 5 business days of discovery.
- Non-critical findings: documented in quarterly report.
Evidence Delivery
- Oversight evidence is compiled into an Oversight Pack, including logs, test results, and policy updates. Delivered annually in PDF/DOCX.
3. Client Responsibilities
Clients must:
- Provide timely access to agents and logs (via secure portal or API).
- Assign a product/data owner for remediation follow-up.
- Respond to Mercury requests within 5 business days.
- Implement agreed remediation actions (Mercury does not enforce changes).
4. Exclusions
The Oversight Pack does not cover:
- Model retraining or fine-tuning.
- Development of new guardrails or moderation policies.
- Formal legal compliance opinions or filings (e.g., DPIAs).
- Vendor management or contractual negotiations.
5. Escalation Path
- Unsafe or prohibited completions → documented & escalated to client owner.
- Repeat failures → flagged in Oversight Report with recommended remediation.
- Material governance failures → Mercury reserves right to suspend Oversight certification until remediation is complete.
6. Fees
- $10,000 per year, organization-wide, for up to 3 production agents.
- Additional agents may be covered via add-ons (see Add-On Catalog).
✅ The Oversight Pack ensures that AI agents remain governed, logged, and auditable throughout their lifecycle — not just at the point of initial deployment.
