migrate

Migrate matters only if the evidence supports a paid workflow around moving, restoring, or rolling back sites without failed handoffs, not a list of isolated fixes. The current commercial thesis is: Migration and recovery failures are high-stress events with expensive cleanup. The entry wedge is to preflight migrations, verify restores, and show exactly what failed before a handoff.

Build a migration and recovery assurance plugin for site owners, agencies, and maintenance teams: Migration and recovery failures are high-stress events with expensive cleanup. The first wedge is to preflight migrations, verify restores, and show exactly what failed before a handoff.

The unmet need is not the individual complaint. It is the recurring business workflow: Migration and recovery failures are high-stress events with expensive cleanup. Current stage: commercial plugin opportunity.
