## Support tiers

Mintlify offers three support tiers. The right tier depends on the level of commitment, response time, and relationship you need.

|---|---|---|---|
| **Tier** | 1 (included) | 2 (add-on) | 3 (add-on) |
| **How issues reach us** | Email or dashboard | AI routing from Slack | CSM escalates from Slack |
| **Response time targets** | Best effort | P0–P3 | P0–P3 |
| **Named contact** | No | No | Yes |
| **Monthly check-ins** | No | No | Yes |
| **Feature request tracking** | No | No | Yes |

</CardGroup>

### Tier 1: Standard support (included)

Included with all Enterprise plans. Reach us through the dashboard or at support@mintlify.com. We do our best to respond and resolve issues quickly.

### Tier 2: Advanced Slack Support (add-on)

We set up a dedicated Slack channel for your team. An AI tool monitors the channel, detects support-related messages, and automatically routes them into our support inbox where our team responds.

**What you get:**
- Dedicated Slack channel connected to our support team
- Automatic AI-powered issue detection and routing to our support inbox
- Priority-based response time targets (see table below)
- Expedited bug escalation to the Mintlify engineering team

**Best for:** Teams that need faster, structured response times without requiring a dedicated point of contact.

### Tier 3: Dedicated CSM (add-on)

You get an assigned Customer Success Manager who owns your dedicated Slack channel. Your CSM responds to questions directly and manually escalates issues to the support team when needed (enabling faster internal coordination and resolution by working alongside support in real time).

**What you get:**
- Assigned CSM as your primary contact and channel owner
- Manual escalation to the support team with direct internal coordination
- Priority-based response time targets (see table below)
- Monthly check-ins
- Shared feature request tracker with direct product team escalation
- Priority bug and incident escalation

**Best for:** Teams that need fast resolution, a named point of contact, and a strategic partner.

### Response time targets

Tiers 2 and 3 include the same response time targets. {/* vale Mintlify.Will = NO */}
Mintlify will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the following service levels:
{/* vale Mintlify.Will = YES */}

| Priority | Definition | Initial response | Target resolution |
|---|---|---|---|
| **P0–Critical** | Complete service outage or security incident | 15 minutes | 1 hour |
| **P1–High** | Major capability blocked with no available workaround | 1 hour | 3 hours |
| **P2–Medium** | Partial degradation or feature issue with a workaround | 6 hours | 48 hours |
| **P3–Low** | Minor issues, cosmetic bugs, or general product inquiries | 12 hours | 96 hours |

<Note>
**P0 is the only priority level with 24/7 response coverage.** Mintlify engineering manages P0 incidents (complete service outage or security incident) directly. We publish real-time status updates and incident progress at [status.mintlify.com](https://status.mintlify.com).

**P1–P3 response times apply during Mintlify business hours only: 9 AM–5 PM Pacific Time (PT), Monday–Friday, excluding US holidays.**

## FAQ

### Tier 3: Dedicated CSM

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What's the difference between a Dedicated CSM and Advanced Slack Support?">
    Tiers 2 and 3 share the same response time targets. The difference is in how your issues reach our team:

    - **Tier 2: Advanced Slack Support** uses an AI tool to automatically detect and route support messages from your Slack channel to our support inbox.
    - **Tier 3: Dedicated CSM** gives you an assigned CSM who actively monitors your channel, responds to questions directly, and manually escalates to the support team. This process enables faster internal coordination and resolution.

    Tier 3 also includes monthly check-ins and a shared feature request tracker with direct product team access.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What's the difference between a Dedicated CSM and standard support?">
    Tier 1 (Standard support, included with all Enterprise plans) is best-effort with no binding time target commitments. Tier 3 (Dedicated CSM) includes:

    - **Defined response time targets** for initial response and resolution
    - **Dedicated Slack channel** with an assigned CSM as your primary contact
    - **Proactive engagement:** Monthly check-ins
    - **Product influence:** Direct escalation to the product team and roadmap input
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How does feature request tracking work?">
    Every Tier 3 customer gets a shared tracker. You can submit feature requests with context and priority, see status updates as requests move through review and development, and provide feedback during feature scoping. Your CSM reviews this regularly and escalates priority items directly to our product team.
  </Accordion>
